Okay, so it might not really impart a +3 awesomeness to your tripawd, but your tripawd will be the 3rd to use it and that counts for a lot. It's Flame Red and size Large. (This is not the newer harness that RuffWear introduced several months ago, but it's a fine piece of gear.)
The first tripawd to use this harness was Indi, a female St. Bernard mix (heavy on the saint). The next was my Dakota, pictured below in the harness.
There is a lot of love packed into this harness, along with a lot of dog hair that will come to you free of charge. I never removed any of Indi's hair because I wanted her spirit to live in the harness and inspire Dakota. So you'll get the hair of two dogs.
Send me a PM if you can use this harness.

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.

Now that is one magical harness. Thanks Shari, you are so kind. I know there's a Tripawd out there who will get a lot of help from Dakota and Indi's fur.

I love that we find the courage to pass them on to some other deserving tripawd. ((Hugs)) to you Shari. I know how hard it is to do.

I am so glad Houdini will get Dakota's harness. He will use it well. God Bless you for sharing his harness with him. Thank you Shari. Dakota will be proud.

Dakota will be so proud! Houdini, you're gettin' a harness with LOTS O' LOVE you lucky guy!
Jill is a 9-year-old tuxedo kitty. She was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in June 2012 on her toe in her right hind leg. Her leg was amputated on 12/12/12 and she completed four rounds of chemo (2 of Carbo, 2 of Doxy) in April 2013.

I don't know that Dakota would be proud, but I know he'd be grateful seeing it go into a box and out the door! He associated the harness with an impending car ride, one of his most dreaded events. So at least I know I'd be making him very happy just sending it away!

What a generous gesture.
Liberty (Libby) was diagnosed with OSA on 1-22-13. Right front amputation on 1-31-13. No IV Chemo. Metronomic Therapy started 2-19-13 along with supplements and some home cooking. Lungs clear until 1-06-14. She's still her happy, hoppy, bossy self. Living the dog life to the fullest and a proud Winter Warrior. :) RIP my Libby 4-21-03 to 3-19-14
