She's pretty lean…& if you ask her, she never gets enough to eat. Isabelle has always been fussy about her wardrobe…She'll only move in one type of coat, from IDAWG & refuses to walk in anything with any strap around/across her chest(I have a drawer of coats to prove it!what-ever) I should have known better. As soon as I saw the harness, I knew she wouldn't like it! I She doesn't need it anyway, so I hope someone who does, can use it.

Where should I look to see measurements for a medium?  I am looking into a harness but don't know what size I would need.

You can find them on the Tripawds Gear page or on Ruff Wear's website. I hope it fitssmiley

This Tripawds Gear blog review for the Ruff Wear harness includes complete details and measurement instructions. Most importantly, it is girth that matters, not weight. thanks for asking.

Hi again, just wondering what color this medium harness is and if it's still available. Thanks again!

I was just thinking about this today….It is still available. It's black & brand new. It was tried on twice, but never worn out of the house. I hope someone who really needs it can use it.

Hi,

I'm fairly new to this group and have just found this section, which is a HUGE help to tripawds. 

Our Hope is a golden retriever weighing 60#; her girth is 27", if my husband measured correctly.  :) 

By any chance is your harness still available?  If so, I believe it would be a huge help in getting Hope in and out of the car and out to potty when she's acting stubborn.  She lost her front leg on June 17 due to fibrosarcoma.

Thanks!

Barb

We'll need to wait and hear from Cynthia (aka: littlemanjake). As a registered user, you can use the PM system (inbox button at top right) to send a message.

Thanks!  I didn't know what "PM" meant–guess it stands for "private message."

Sorry, Daisy has been wearing that harness for quite some time. If you can wait a day or two for me to get in touch with a friend, I will find out if she is ready to part with her golden, Willard's harness that was generously sent to her by Mackenzie's mom, Kami.

Thank you! We just updated this topic title. Last we read – post #8 above – the harness was still available.

It was posted as TAKEN January 25th……BUT….The good news is, Willard's mom, Audrea will be sending his harness, that Kami so very generously purchased for him, to Hope. So everyone who needs a harness has one…and Isabelle says that's great as long as no one ever tries to make her walk in one!
