[nagdu] re relieving harness

[Lea williams]

hey i know this is long past but i wanted to tell what a friend of
mine does. If she knows her dog is having loose stools, , then she
keeps the harnis on her dog and when the dog does use it, she takes
off the bag and replaces it with a new clean one. better than it
making a mess all over if it is not able to get to a good spot. I can
see having a releaving harnus for this thing being a good idea.
