Hi, Everyone! My border collie/blue heeler, RikRak, is a bipawd. He has had both front legs amputated. He does great. He has a full-support wheelchair and the strongest back legs in the world, so he gets around like a champ. At the present time we use a Help 'Em Up Harness. I'm wondering if anyone has a better type they use for a bipawd. This one seems to grow on him and, without front limbs to keep it in place, tends to cause problems. I hope to connect with someone who also has a two-legged pup.

Hi Leslye and RikRak! It's great to hear from you, we are always interested in learning more about bipawds here! So happy that he is doing really great. What a spirit!
Tell us more about how you are using the harness. Is it just for when he's in the chair or all day?
