Hello:
I wish to offer this harness – in memory of Maggie and her dad, magsdad, who offered it to us, and in memory of my Pofi, who sadly did not get to wear it on our planned bucket list trip as cancer took him from us. Size is XXL. Let me know and I will post it to you – excellent walking help harness for a large/giant breed front limb amputee.

On October 27, 2016, nearly 6 months after amputation, and 18 months since his cancer likely started, we lost Pofi to a recurrence of Soft Tissue Sarcoma in his spine quite suddenly. His Daddy and I miss him terribly along with his canine sister, Mia, and two feline siblings, Lucia and Cliff.
Thank you so much, what an awesome gift to pass along. xoxo
It's better to hop on three legs than to limp on four.™

Read my story here.
My dog CharlieBear is a Great Pyrenees scheduled for a front limb amputation this Thursday. If this harness is still available, we would be more than honored to receive it and return it or pay it forward when the time comes. CharlieBear is a wonderful boy but I have a truck and will need all of the assistance I can get in helping him get in and out and in helping him adjust. (My previous Pyr was also an amputee due to OSA and had a wheelchair which we passed along when the time came. I know how hard that can be and truly appreciate your post !)
Hello and welcome CharlieBear and pack, your future posts will not have to wait for approval.
I’m sorry you are facing cancer and amputation again! Please consider starting a topic in Presentation and Diagnosis or Share Your Story so you can introduce CharlieBear and tell us your story so far and about your previous cancer warrior.
I’m sure Lisa will see this soon and get details to send the harness.

CharlieBear and I thank Maggie and Pofi and their parents Maggie’s dad and Lisa from the bottom of our PyrPaws. Sharing and supporting makes the walk that much easier no matter how many -or few- paws we have:)
Awwww….such a caring way to pay tribute to Maggie and Pofi.
Sending positive energy to Charlie Bear for a quick recovery. He’s adorable!!
Hugs
