I found this one that doesn't cover the sholders of the dog. Plus I think they offer expediant shipping. It may be just what you are looking for.

So what was the bump?

My dogs have simular ones doc says are caused by sweat glands.

And/or is the lump above her shoulder towards her spine or above towards her head/neck? Let me know... I can start on it tonight.

Wow remind me to vote for you when you run for office!! Awesome!

That's a good design, but I think the top part might be too thick and would touch the incision

They don't know what the lump is, they're removing it Tuesday and sending it to pathology. Then we'll know!

Solve two problems...pulling and what to wear while recovering!

I totally get what you are saying...a vest harness with one solid shoulder the other a smaller strap so it will not rub the incision while healing.?

normarae63 · 08-25-2012, 05:35 AM

Goodness Sarah, I feel so bad for Sophia!
Here's another idea. Have you ever seen the thundershirts? They're made with a very taut stretchy cotton/spandex type of fabric. Then it fastens under the belly but there's also another added flap of fabric that snugs it just a little more. If something for Sophia were made more like the old tube tops, you could completely eliminate a need for anything around the neck/shoulders. A band could be put down the center with the d-ring attached.

Hmmm that might work too!!

Sophia, we are so happy to see so many creative and talented YT members working to design a harness for you. We know they will make sure that you are comfortable and that your incision is safe from harm while you are recuperating.

Our grandpa keeps telling us he is going to put a hook in our tails to attach a fishing reel. Haha grandpa -- not!

All of the YTers are amazing for contributing their ideas/help. I don't know what I would have done with Sophia without you all!! I might have had to take that advice and put a hook in Sophia's tail

I'm so glad your Sophia is going to be taken care of!!! You guys are great!
