Leather dog harnesses - the advantages

Does your pet pull energetically on the leash from time to time? Then a dog harness might be the better choice compared to a collar: A harness scores with an even pressure spreading over the entire chest of your dog. In addition, you can keep your fur friend optimally under control.

A leather dog harness also offers the decisive advantage of an individually optimal fit: because the body temperature of your dog shapes the leather and thus ideally adapts it to its body shape. Leather is a soft, supple natural material that is comfortable to wear and at the same time extremely robust and durable.

Which leather harness is the best for my dog?

The important thing is what purpose your chest harness should serve and what is important to you. Rather anxious dogs need an escape-proof harness, others have no problem with being pulled something over their head. Therefore, take a look at the types of leather dog harnesses and see which one fits:

• A Norwegian harness made of leather is particularly easy to put on: You simply pull it over your darling's head. A horizontal bar across the chest allows your dog ideal freedom of movement.
• You can also easily put on and take off a leather Y-Harness without having to lift your dog's legs. It fits tight and is therefore the ideal choice for dogs who want to get rid of their chest harness quickly.
• A leather H-harness is equipped with an H-shaped back bar and can be individually adjusted to fit. It serves as a guide harness.
• The Easy Step-In harness made of leather is the ideal chest harness for small dogs: it does not need to be pulled over the head and does not require a strap between the front legs.

Leather dog harnesses: what to look for when buying?

If you want to buy a leather dog harness, you should pay attention to the following:

• Type: As a leather dog harness for a French bulldog, a step-in harness is very suitable, but a strong Labrador is better served with the Norwegian harness.
• Size: Measure your pet's waist and neck circumference to find the right size. Allow about two finger widths of space between the dog's neck and the measuring tape.
• Adjustability: The dog harnesses are adjustable, so that you can adjust them individually to the body shape of your pet - so they fit well and offer you as an owner reliable safety.
• Closure: Most leather dog harnesses are equipped with a practical plug-in or click closure.
• Padding: Some leather dog harnesses consist of a clever mix of materials and combine nylon as fabric and leather with each other - so you benefit from the soft padding of smooth leather and easy-care nylon that adapts to the body shape. The pure HUNTER leather harnesses are padded with soft mesh and thus offer optimal wearing comfort.
• Design: whether a leather dog harness round stitched or braided, whether in brown, cognac or black, whether luxury dog harness with rhinestones or a leather dog harness in red - you have the choice! Browse through the wide range of high-quality HUNTER dog harnesses and find your favorite!
