I’m wondering how well this works on a dog with a front leg amputated?

@erin The AST harness works even better on front leg amputee dogs as most of the support is up front under the chest. Don’t miss our original AST review and demo video featuring Jerry, who was missing a front leg. FYI: The harness shown in this original demo is only slightly different, the new one has been improved.

This would be great for my rear leg amputee who is a large dog, but can a long leash be used to give the dog more freedom and space? This looks good for lifting, but I don’t walk my dog this close to me.

Thanks for asking Joanne. The Get A Grip is really designed as much more of a support harness than a walking harness. You could theoretically attach a leach to one of the handle/loop rings, but there is no centered ring like you’ll find on the Web Master harness. Or just attach the leash to your dog’s collar as usual when walking about and use the harness for support as needed.
Hope this answers your question! Consider posting in the forums for advice from other users.
