[nagdu] question about bags and relieving harnesses

[Mary Wurtzel]

II am really sorry but somehow I didn't catch a description of a relieving
harness.  What is it and how does it work?  Do you leave it on the dog the
whole time you are out working?  Thanks.

Hi, all.

I recently started using a relieving harness with Ace. This is a fabulous
thing, as it helps with a lot of his relieving issues. However, the brand of
bags that was recommended to me seems really difficult to find. It's called
Doggy Walk. Does someone know where I might find this brand, or one like it?
I've checked with PetCo, petfood Direct, and amazon, all to no avail.

I've heard that grocery bags can be used with the relieving harness, but
they aren't as well-fitted. They tend to be rather loose, which bugs Ace
when he's walking around with this flapping bag on his rear end.

If anyone can offer suggestions, I would very much appreciate hearing what
you have to say.

Shannon and Ace
