The Pblog FAQ's:

1) How do I put it on? What does it look like?

2) He is reluctant to let me put on the harness. What should I do?

3) Can she urinate and defecate with the harness on?

4) No matter which size I use for my female, or which way I turn the rear harness - she still managers to pee on it. Any suggestions? - I'm thinking of cutting a bigger whole in the back and re-stitching it - but I thought I would ask you first.

5) How long are the handle straps? Am I going to have to bend down while I'm walking the dog?

6) It seems that the harness is not long enough as there is a lot of velcro showing when I wrap it around Zeek's body. How snug should it fit? I can't figure out which way to put the harness. There is a rounded area on one side. If I put that towards his chest, it interferes - it kind of bunches up against his armpits. If I place it near his belly, it covers up the tip if his private area.

I am trying to find the best possible answers to the best possible piles of fanmail
