Hello,
My bearded dragon has three arms- a front left arm, and both back legs. He is missing the front right arm. This is because before I bought him from a breeder, the babies fought and his arm became injured, and it had to be amputated. I bought him anyways, and he’s healthy and moves around just fine.
The only problem is, I tried making him a harness and it didn’t work because of the missing arm. He crawled right out of it. ;-; I was wondering if anyone else has a beardie with the same disability and whether you were able to design a harness for them?
I've had good luck making hip harnesses. I use one for my guy. It's a strap or cloth that fits around their hip in front of the back legs and has a loop on the back that can connect to a leash. There is some discussion on them here https://www.beardeddragon.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=133967
If you stay close to him and he is well supervised he may not wind up needing one though. I rarely use the one I have for my guy.
Thank you so much!!! This is absolutely perfect. I just made this for him a few minutes ago and so far, it works great! I was getting worried that he wouldn’t be able to ever have a harness, but this is such a simple solution. And he needs a harness, he can run extremely fast if he gets angry or scared.
