Backwoods Dog BioThane Trek Harnais

Love this harness so far, and the reflective hot pink was made for my yellow labbie :)

I was looking for a waterproof harness which would be adjustable at the neck as well as at the chest. The Backwoods Dog Y-harness is adjustable also along the chest (to the neck). It is easy to put on and off, since it opens on both side at the chest. Backwoods Dog provided a harness with a suitable adjust range for my dog, who was at the top end of their described medium size. They were very helpful and the service was fast and efficient.
The negative of the harness is that it is heavier than our other 2 harnesses - this would be the cost of the adjustability. The metal fittings are also quite large - but the harness fits well and is suited to its purpose, which for us will primarily be to use in rain. Our other harnesses do have a restraining handle which I will miss on the Backwoods Dog harness, but this is less important on really rainy days when there will be fewer triggers around. I am expecting a good life-span from the harness and look forward to using it more.

I ordered custom harnesses and hands-free leashes for my two large basset hounds. We live by the sea with lots of forest around too. They’re strong boys and the hands-free leashes are excellent for securing around my hip as we run and walk through damp and muddy forests or along the beach. My dogs keep their harnesses on even when they’re off swimming in the ocean. Everything is so easy to hose down and rinse off any sand, mud, grass and saltwater and they dry very quickly when left out to hang, or instantly with a quick wipe with a towel. Craftsmanship is excellent and most importantly everything is incredibly durable (even for my 90+ lb strong hounds) and absolutely perfect for our rugged lifestyle. I will never use harnesses and leashes from any other company again. These will last years despite being put through the works in every outing. Exceptional quality overall and absolutely gorgeous to boot!

Tres beau, de qualite. Tres solide. Jai un labernois qui adore se coucher dans l’eau, bouette. Tres facile de le laver. Le harnais anpas l’aire de derranger mon chien. Les grandeur etait les bonne. Tres belle achat

Great harness - fit and quality. Even better service. Will definitely be a return customer

Great customer support. Hard to find these days I’ve made four purchases so far and really like their products.

Très beau matériel très qualitatif et très belles couleurs !! Si j'avais eu le budget j'aurais acheté toute la collection !!🙈🙈 Service client au TOP merci encore mille fois d'avoir fait le nécessaire pour récupérer mon colis que le transporteur avait livré à la mauvaise adresse !! Seul petit bémol qu'un jour vous pourriez peut-être réussir à améliorer : je trouve les colliers et les harnais un petit peu lourds et c'est dommage de ne pas pouvoir avoir de poignée sur la taille M du harnais... Un jour peut-être ? Mais en tout cas tout le reste, je recommande c'est sûr !! =)

If you are shopping for a new harness. Please stop and purchase a harness from Backwoods Dog. Highly recommend the Y harness. Built strong, will definitely last, easy to put on and take off, adjustable and fits perfectly. We opted for the reflective blue and even the reflective material is superior to anything else we have come across. Also looking forward to a "stench" free harness once summer swimming season starts. Thank you Backwoods Dog.

Our 3 yr old lab loves to swim in the lake which is almost daily. Had this for 3 weeks now and it is great. Dries quickly and no stink! Yet. Is is heavier than other harnesses, but that does seem to deter our dog. If it stands up to the test of time, it will be worth the $$.

This harness is amazing - Bennie is a 10+ yr old hound who has a mind of his own. The control I feel when walking him is amazing and he is so comfortable - I can not even begin to describe how happy I am about how the harness just doesn't smell.
