Leyka&Diva Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I've heard great things about Hooner sled dog gear but have only had leads from them xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BingBlaze n Skyla Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Do not get ezydog if your husky is strong , my boy didn't even really pull in his n snapped the clips , he was only around 23-25kilos at the time too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharloid Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Tracking harness from SASS Price: £16.50 Features: They're very strong, made to measure, have a brass buckle rather than a plastic clip, come in lots of colours and are only £16.50 each (plus p+p). We've had them in the washing machine lots and the colour hasn't faded unlike some of the cushion webbing things we have and after 8 months heavy use with Broder it's showing no signs of wear. As they're made to measure you can have padding put on wherever your dog might need it. The only downside I can think of is that the padding can leave a dye mark if it's left on whilst wet.

jmscott Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 · Hidden Hidden Nana uses a variety of harnesses. We use a standard H style harness for her long line, a custom made backpack, and a custom made Xback harness. A lot of our friends use urban trail type harnesses or Julius Canine. Oh, and also we see a lot of PP harnesses. Link to comment
Brendy Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 @jmscott What's the second type of harness called? I would really like to have one of those for Elai. Now I use an H type too,.. It was pretty expensive... And the worst part is, he hates it! If I take it out of the closet he runs and hides underneath the table... This one, from Ferplast. It's a great harness though, strong, easy to clean, ajustable, I find that it spreads the weight from pulling over his whole chest and not just in one spot. I only use it for short distances next to my bike, but sometimes he gets into his sleddog-mood and starts pulling me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmscott Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 · Hidden Hidden The backpack? I made it for our bully cross, I just looked at the bones of the harness used in most canine backpacks and added padding and two bags for stuff and two for water bottles. We use that backpack more for training. When we get to seriously working on her WPD title, she will probably get the Ruffwear Palisades pack. Granted Sibes get to carry so little weight for their title the smaller Approach Pack would probably work.. http://www.ruffwear.com/Omnijore-Joring-System?sc=2&category=1131 Ruffwear also makes their own harness types.

Dave Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 I have had a few harnesses for Kodi, currently using the Julias K9 power harness which is brilliant IMO (and you can get custom name stickers for it ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpups Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 I have manmat and Jublis k9 harnesses for all mine costly but well worth the money only problem I have is that they only do a few colours in the manmat gear lol and you can't get k9 lead and collars in wat I like so I had mix and match them lpl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarSydkik Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 I live in Lethbridge Alberta Canada. Where can I get a Julius K9 harness here? Right now our Kallie has a Canadog shorty which is great but doesn't fit that well. And she needs an update to her wardrobe, lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markquinton Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 You say the Ezydog convert harnesses are not strong enough which may be the case with the standard harnesses but the 'Convert' one is brilliant and almost identical to the Julius K9. I've got one for my big mally and it's been excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
