[nagdu] Relieving harness

[Bob Blackner]

Hi Tracy, It actually doesn't really matter what sex the dog is. All of the
relieving harnesses are made pretty much the same.  The only reason it is
asked, is because we are nosy.  Lol
Most dogs do accept them pretty wel.  Some dogs it takes a little longer for
them to get used to it, but that just means more time and patience is
needed.    
I think they would work great for your girl.

Subject: [nagdu] Relieving harness

My retired dog Echo is 15 now.  She's showing signs of doggie dementia,
pacing around for no reason, and pooping in the house.  She seems happy,
though.
We tried a diaper for her, but she doesn't like it, and anyway it just
means cleaning her instead of cleaning the floor.  I was wondering if it
would work to put a relieving harness on her, and just leave a bag
attached, at least when she's awake and walking around.
Do those of you with experience with the relieving harness think that
would work?  Do dogs accept the harness without much fuss?
I thought I could also use it for Ben, if I want, but the Pawpower website
says I need to specify the dog's sex in my order.  So does that mean a
male dog couldn't use the same harness as a female?

I would like to find a solution to this problem, if possible.  My husband
has become an expert with the carpet cleaner, but two blind people
shuffling around looking for scattered turds is not much fun.
Thanks.
Tracy
