kennedyk Report post Posted March 6, 2017 Curious if anyone has ever made a leather saddle bag for large dogs ? If you have a pattern or a starting idea ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wulfing Report post Posted March 6, 2017 (edited) I made a water bottle pouch that attaches to my dogs harness for long walks but he kept rolling around as he didnt seem to like it in the same way he doesnt like muzzles lol. It was my 3rd leather project. Hank is an English mastiff / staffie cross. I didnt make a pattern though Edited March 6, 2017 by Wulfing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thornton Report post Posted March 6, 2017 A saddle bag shape sized to the dog and attached to a harness is where I'd start. Also a google image search. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kennedyk Report post Posted March 6, 2017 Ive got a big boy, he is brown aussie/ border collie x Alaskan malamute. It never occurred to me to size down a regular one might need some modifications though. Any more input or patterns are still quite welcome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have made saddle bags for horses, They would the same except smaller and how you put them on your K9. Give me the size of your K9 and I will make you a pattern. How fare is he from the ground, long is his back,how wide is his back and what ever you can think of that help me make the pattern. These bags are for a horse. I kan make them smaller Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
