My dog Athena will be getting a front left leg amputation very soon for osteosarcoma. I have decided to go ahead with amputation, and I am trying to make an appointment for next week to get the procedure done. Now, I am trying to plan ahead and make sure that I will have a support to use after the initial surgery healing as she is a big girl-- weight is now 102 lbs. Her girth is 36", which looks like it is a Lg size in most types of harnesses. Thank you for reading.

I will always love you, Athena.
I have an AST Get a Grip harness, size Large, that's brand new (too big for my dog) that's yours if you PM me your mailing address.
It's about halfway down on this page: http://gear.tri.....#harnesses
Good luck with your baby's surgery!
Thank you so much dharma! That is very generous of you, will PM you now.

Jessica, does Athena like the water? If so, I have put Dakota's life vest in the Angel Exchange and it would fit her, I'm pretty sure. If she swims and you want to look at it, go to the Angel Exchange forum. It should be at the top. If you have trouble finding it, send me a message.

From abandoned puppy to Tripawd Warrior Dude, Dakota became one of the 2011 February Furballs due to STS. Our incredibly sweet friend lived with grace and dignity till he impulsively raced over the Bridge on 12-15-12.
Dakota's thoughtful and erudite blog is at http://shari.tr.....pawds.com/
