STANDARD SIWASH HARNESS: For dogs 24 inches or taller at the withers There are clips on each top sides of the withers that clip into the harness for the forward girth. The forward girth clips into another clip that is part of the harness. Then the shafts are inserted into the loops. This harness is the draft dog standard for medium to giant breeds. However, if you have a smaller dog the clips fall too low on the side of the dog which results in incorrect placement for the shafts.  OLD-STYLE HARNESS: For dogs smaller than 24 inches This harness is used for smaller dogs up to 16” at the withers, and approximately 25 lbs. or less. Shelties, Beagles, French Bulldogs, are examples of smaller breeds that benefit from this harness. This harness works as it does not have the clips at the top sides of the dog’s harness as seen on the standard Siwash harness. Instead, there is a loop at the top of the harness. You thread the forward girth through the big loop. then adjust the loops on each end of the forward girth. The loops are now hanging on each side of the dog. You now insert the shafts into a loop on each side of the dog. The loops can be shortened or lengthened as needed. Be sure that the shafts are now parallel to the ground. Use the loops to make the adjustment. |
