What type of leather for Dog Harness?

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm wondering which type of leather I should use for a Dog Harness? It will be used as a tracking harness. :helpsmilie:

I would use veg tan and treat it with your favorite oil........neatsfoot. montana pitch blend.

dr. jacksons, skidmores, little oil will keep the wetness out......

My first choise would be english bridle, it has wax added but not as much as Harness leather. I build Law Enforcement K-9 tracking harnesses that really get a work out and the english bridle holds up well and is somewhat water resistant, something you might want to consider when making dog equipment.

I'd go with bridle leather too, for the durablity and the drum dying process that makes the color more stable.
