Carting Harness

[jhscott]

I am interested in getting Yogi involved in cart or wagon pulling. I've searched the internet for harnesses but have only found one place that has carting harnesses, lots of sledding harnesses. Where is a good place to look, and what are some of the features to get?

THe are several places - the first 2 I have ordered from. DogWorks is owned andby Newfie people so is geared a littel more towards them.

Dogworks - www.dogworks.com
Nordkyn - www.nordkyn.com
Ikon Outfitters - www.ikonoutfitters.com

The other 2 have alot of sledding stuff too and are geared more towards Huskies & Malamutes but still have good stuff

You want what they call a Siwash harness for carting with a newf.

I have always got mine from Nordkyn. They make the harnesses for Dog Works. I get the siwash carting harness. It costs about $50 and is easy to put on and comfortable for the dogs to wear even when not hooked to the cart.

i can vouch also for dog works, i bought my cart and harness from them, and both are very nice quality.
there was someone on newf l that made carts, but i cannot recall who that was?

There's a website with information on carting with your dog including a list of vendors.

All my harnesses and 2 carts came from DogWorks. Someone made my travois for me.

Thanks for the replies. I will order the siwash harness from one of the sites listed.
