Want a Harness or Two

15 September, 2007 (20:52) | Tatum | By: Cynthia

I want a good flyball harness. Anyone know where to get one? I really like some styles… I like the Puppia Harnesses, but they are too small for Chase. Maybe one would fit Tatum, though. I want a harness for her because her martingale collar worries me. She could sleep it, it’s a bit large for her.

I haven’t seen any really nice harnesses out there that don’t rub under the dogs arms. Has to be a Y-Neck. If you know of any please let me know as I really want to buy a couple of them. I have mushing harnesses for Chase and Levi when we jog, but they are not really all the secure and I wouldn’t use one on a dog I had to make sure would not get away.

I have been taking Tatum out front on very short walks a couple of times a day. As confident as she is now in our house and yard, she is still nervous outside in the front yard. So slow short trips, but I need a harness for her… and I also like having some home lighting outdoors. It’s going to be getting dark early soon, and a bit of light helps!

I I have done business with a lady named Andrea from england who hand makes the most amazing collars and harnesses. I know lots of flyball people whose dogs flyball in these and I have one on order for Moxie (pink of course) She also has a escape proof version. SHe primarily designs these for sight hounds, so I would imagine it would fit a collie shape quite nicely.
Here is her website.

These could be way off….but I like the Premier harness because it is non restrictive and they use the really soft webbing … no sharp edges.
