Why a harness

The pull goes to the chest, not the neck.

That's why you won't find slip leads, choke chains or prong collars here. Our leashes are made to clip to a harness, and our collars are made for style.

What we make

Harness

  • Pressure: Back and chest, spread out
  • Safer: Keeps the pull off the neck and windpipe
  • Comfort: Straps adjust to sit right on a deep chest

Not in our shop

Neck leash

Slip leads, choke chains and the like.

  • Pressure: Neck, all in one spot
  • Risk: Pulls on the neck and can strain the windpipe
  • Experience: The harder they pull, the tighter it gets

Before you order

Questions, answered.

Can I lift my dog by the handle?

No, it’s not for carrying. To lift them, support the chest and hips together so the back stays level.

Feels Like a Luxury Find

My dog isn’t a dachshund, but he’s a small breed, and I thought this looked too cool to pass up. The quality is amazing—honestly, it feels like something from a luxury brand.
