MADE TO ORDER
Our rolled leather harness made specially for the Miniature Dachshund but also suits puppies and other small breeds.
It's a figure-8 in rolled leather and adjustable at the 'tab' where the top D-ring is secured.
Lightweight but strong and pliable. Constructed in a pre-stretched polyester rope (the same rope used in racing sailboats so won't rot if it gets wet). Around this we wrap, glue and stitch the soft leather.
Ideal for the Miniature Dachshund body shape and adjustable to ensure a secure fit around the neck (see illustration below, point A) and girth (point B).
MEASURING - please refer to the illustration
Best to take a soft tape measure and, with a snug fit (overtop the coat but no fingers underneath), please let us know the actual neck size (A) and girth (B).

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
A cleaning with dubbin or saddle soap, then buffed up with a leather restorative like Neat's Foot Oil or a beeswax product (e.g. Renapur or Leather Genie) will help restore the leather to its natural lustre and protect it against the elements.
To help ensure the longevity of your dog's leather collar, allow to air-dry (not on a radiator) after it gets wet and ensure it is dry before re-using.
Do not allow the leather to come into contact with the chemicals from commercially-available flea spot-on treatments. This will damage the leather and may cause the dye to run.

Beautiful lead, collar and harness.
Beautiful item and superbly crafted.
Fits well and looks great. Expensive but will last twice as long as cheaper item, Also has proper holes rather than push through fastening, much safer.
This is SECURE!!
I think the little guy feels much more comfortable in this quality padded harness.
Really struggled to get a harness to fit my 2 miniature dachshunds. Especially one who could slip out of all of the popular brands. This hasn’t happened since purchasing these beautifully crafted harnesses. It keeps them cool and they look fantastic. Would definitely recommend
