Cisco Questions Organized

Update: I have passed along our questions and am waiting to hear back from Dr. D. I went ahead and organized the questions (nice work, by the way. These questions are smart). I'm hoping we will spent Wednesday with Cisco. 

In House
Is there a material that is strong but light? So that he doesn't get too hot?
What type of material would be best to use that doesn't bother the dog's fur?
What material won't tear after being dragged on the ground for a while?
What is our budget for making this drag bag?
Winter Summer attachment maybe
Ventilation?
Pants instead of Bag?
Easy to wash material

Exploratory:
What kinds of problems does the dog encounter with its current drag bag?
What, in great detail, is the problem?
Can the dog be upright or is it necessary to slide on his hip?
Would it be possible to get a video of Cisco of dragging himself around the house?
What was the problem with the other drag bags?
Is there a particular spot that he gets sores?

Form:
Should the padding of the bag be thicker on one side, or all the way around?
What happens when he has to go to the bathroom?
Is it possible to make it only fit the part of his body where it gives him cysts?
Is his skin sensitive to certain fabrics?
Favorite material?

Personalizing/Fit:
How big is Cisco?
What kind of personality does Cisco have?  
How much does the dog weigh?
How long is the dog from the his middle (where the bag would wrap around) to his end?
What is the measurement around his stomach where the bag would wrap around?
How tall is the dog from the top of his hips to the base of his paws?
Is he a short-haired or long-haired breed?
What are Cisco's measurements?
What side does he usually lean/put pressure on?
Measurements/ Also around front legs.
Boy/Girl?


Environment:
How often does the dog go outside?
 What kind of floor is the dog walking on?
What kinds of terrain is he required to navigate?
What kind of flooring in house?

Waste:
Should the material be washable or should there be a removable insert inside the bag that could dispose of waste? 
Does he have a problem going to the bathroom?
