Carting Harness

This popular carting harness is also known as a Siwash Cart Harness. It includes padded neck and chest straps, adjustable Brake Loop Strap (forward cinch), adjustable Belly Strap (rear cinch), and also comes with adjustable traces. For use when pulling wheeled carts or any carts with shafts. Visit our glossary for more info!

In order to achieve proper fit, we will need additional measurements of your dog. Print and Fill out the CM4 Form (see below), to assist you with the checkout process.

A special note about ribboned harnesses. (When applicable) Adding Ribbon to a harness will add an elegant, flashy zest to your harness that will create lots of "AWE" appeal. When choosing a ribbon, the ribbon width must be NO wider than the webbing width chosen on the order (i.e. 3/4" webbing must have a ribbon no larger than 3/4"). It is suggested that the ribbon actually be slightly smaller than the webbing (i.e. 5/8" ribbon to 3/4" webbing), this will cause the webbing to be an accent color which will make the ribbon "pop" even more. (See sample images below)

Measuring Tips

We always suggest having a partner assist you while measuring your dog. The partner can distract your dog with treats/toys and keep their attention while you measure. Also, your dog must be standing straight and looking forward. This will keep your measurements consistent and accurate.

It is also a good idea to take your dogs measurements (3) separate times and then average those measurements to give you a good baseline. Feel free to call us for any additional pointers on measuring your pooch.

If you prefer to have us average your measurements for you, simply supply the measurements (in inches) to us inside each measurement field provided on this page when ordering. (I.E. 14, 15, 13.5)

When choosing your dogs webbing width it is always suggested that any dog over 30lbs should wear a 1" width webbing strap, this helps to spread the weight distribution over a larger area.

ATTENTION: Due to the increased popularity of our harnesses and the fact that they are "Made to order" (meaning: we get your measurements and we make it to fit your companion) we have had to extend our production times on all harnesses to 4-6 weeks. We appreciate your patience during this busy time and feel free to call us directly if you need a harness by a particular deadline. We'll do our best to accommodate your needs.
