I know there are a lot of harness options out there and a several of them work great for tripawds. Joey came up to Idaho from the Mexico border in Texas so I know he’s used to much warmer weather. I wanted a jacket that would keep his amputation site warm without a seam over it. I started designing this before I ever saw Joey in person and made multiple different patterns. Finally I was able to create one I’m happy with.
This design is a single piece so there is no seam on his site and it’s easy to make. I can add padding if needed and it’s easy to put on and off. Because this one fit so well, I added some strapping and will use it as a harness. This combines the Jacket/Harness that I was wanting.
I took Joey to the park to try and socialize him and realized how nice it is to have the handle on a little dog like him. He had no fear being picked up by that handle and it is very supportive.
Now I need to make a summer version.
I will share the design with anyone else that want’s to try and make one.
I would be interested in the design. My little Bichon tripawd would love it.
You are so kind to share.
Thank you
Patti
I’ll send it to you in a bit.
Ok, I can’t figure out how to contact you.
Wow you are crafty! That looks very well made and stylish too. How does Joey like wearing it? He doesn’t seem to mind. Great job!
He doesn’t mind it at all.
