custom made, so I have become the custom maker! This way I can fit it
to her as I go. I'm using some fat nylon rope rather than flat
webbing because it looked more comfortable where it goes under her
legs. I am padding all the places that might cause discomfort based
on pictures I've looked up. Hope to have it finished today or
tomorrow. The big trike needs to have a seat stem adjustment done
before i can really use it-I'm to high up from the ground & Luli to
have proper control. I now have a pedal car which is going to be
much,much better. I will try to post pictures when we try everything
out. I know the weather has been
severe the last few days in Manitoba. Susan & Jeffrey, let us know
how things are going. Congratulations to Joel on the birth of his
daughter Abbyga�lle!

I am no expert and have to admit I made my own first harness's as well
from instructions found on the internet.

Fairly proud of them to, The Vet/Rec. Musher/Yukon Quest check point
vet. I bought a used sled and other equipment from looked at them and
said "You made these!? these are nice harness's"
I would be very careful that your harness is not putting pressure
points and or pulling against Lula Bell improperly.Rope (to Me) does
not sound like the preferred way to go. You do not want her to be
uncomfortable or hurt her, this could put her off make her not enjoy
pulling. Peddle car ? Hmmmm Curious to see those pics.
