[nagdu] Recommendations for harnesses

[The Pawpower Pack]

If you go to Amazon and type in Guide Dog Harness, a few results pop up. 
Hilison Saddles makes a leather harness for $75, 
Dean and Tylor make a nylon harness for $95, and a leather one for about $150 ish.  
There is also bridgeport equipness 
www.bridgeportequipment.com
and 
www.activedogs.com
You can also retrofit things like the backpack from petjoyonline and the Har-vest with guide handles, but be warned that these will be more in the British style, with no stabelizer loops as you find on most harnesses issued by programs in the states.
