Hold-A-Dog Harness in Fabric & Mesh

I just can't tell you how cute my boy looks in his new harness. Came fast and fit great. So happy he won't be getting the rash under his arms that he sometimes got from his other harness. Definitely will be ordering again! Tried to upload a picture but it won't let me...

We have been buying this excellent product for @ 20 years now, in mesh. We love the fabric for the hot summer months and the fabric patterns are so original and lively. It is beautifully made,and you can feel the loving care placed in each harness.

Great harness! This is the third one we have had made, all were great and perfect fits. Quality workmanship. Only reason for replacement is our corgi uses it for tug of war with the doxie while hes wearing it.......Will be back Im sure.

I am so delighted with Rudy's new harness! Your products are outstanding. I wanted to tell you about a harness I have that Rudy has been using for the past couple of years. It was bought from Dachshund Delights for my girl Tess, who died in 2012. I don't remember when I bought it, but I know it's been over 10 years, likely closer to 12-15 years! It has lasted and lasted, never a tear or wearing shown but I decided Rudy at almost 5 years old needed his own harness. Thank you so much for the harness. I expect it to last many years, as did Tess' harness.

We live in a Class A motor home that has five steep exit steps. When our nine year old doxie goes out I stand at ground level and exert an upward pressure on the leash as Keepah comes down the steps eliminating the jarring that is so bad for their backs. Thanks for making such a quality product.

As a foster mom for doxies, I am always worried my fosters will get spooked and run. I have never had a dog escape from a hug a dog harness. These are the only ones I use. Dachshund Delights also is a big supporter of dachshund rescue. Love that! I ordered the purple paisley harnedd with the seatbelt loop. It is beautiful and my dogs are very comfy in them.

The quality, workmanship and materials are excellent. The fit is perfect. This is my 4th harness that i have purchased from Dachshund delights. I would never buy them any where else. The quality and functionality are top notch. I would recommend this hug-a-Dogg harness to anyone that wants the best harness created. They look darn good too.??

We have been using these harnesses for my Dachshund since we saw the hug-a-dog harness at the Super Pet Expo In 2011. They are truly made just for my dog as the measurements are custom and true to size. They last a long time and hold up well when they are washed. They are also very easy to put on and don’t come undone when my little guy pulls on our walks. Can’t buy this quality in a pet store. I recommend these harnesses to all my long doggie friends

This is an excellent option for hard to fit shapes. I have a miniature dachshund and other harnesses just didn’t fit properly. This one is customized and it fits her just right!

This is Poppy's fifth hug-a-dog, and we won't shop anywhere else for a harness. It perfectly fits her unique body shape, it doesn't pull open choke her, and we get so many compliments on it. Thanks hug-a-dog!

Bought a couple harnesses several years ago and although they were still in decent shape, I wanted to get new ones, especially for my chiweenie that had gained some weight. I measured the dogs as explained and the harnesses arrived and fit perfectly. I love them and so do they

I ordered 2 Hold-a-Dog vests this time for our 8-year old mini Dachshund, Spaetzle. One to wear in warm weather and one that was larger to wear over his sweater in the winter. Both are perfect fits and sharp looking. This is our third mini Dachshund who has enjoyed your wonderful vests. This autumn we hope to get a new puppy and will be ordering him a vest. Our first mini Doxie, Schnapps, had back surgery at 5 and your vests were the answer to making sure his back didn’t have extra pressure on it after he healed from surgery. He enjoyed your vests until he was 12. Wolfgang, our 2nd mini doxie, showed off your vests for 13 years. Now, Spaetzle is carrying on the tradition. All three have enjoyed their dream sacks. They love burrowing in them to sleep or just hide. Thanks for making such great products.

The hold-a-dog harness is great! Good quality, perfect size, very attractive, and works well for walking my dachshund and for keeping her restrained when riding in the car.

I bought my first Hug-A-Dog harness about 15 years ago. They're so well made that those first harnesses outlasted the dogs for which I bought them. Simply put, it's a great product and I always feel my dogs are safe and secure in their Hug-A-Dog harnesses.

These harnesses are absolutely the best. The customer service is excellent. We still have all of our original ones that I ordered between 15 and 10 years ago. My little long-haired girls look so spiffy in their new ones!

This is the best harness I have ever had. My older Daucshund could not be kept in any other harness. She would just pool and slip out of everything and just sit and would not walk and she was terrible in the car. Now with this customer harness she is safe and comfortable. The design and the quality is excellent.I will definitely order another one for the colder weather

The harness surpassed my expectations for my dachshund. It is escape proof, easy to put on and take off. Avoids strain on the neck as the clip is lower on the back. Product is very well made and the sizing was perfect for her. I would order another and recommend to friends.

This has been one of the best purchases I have made. It fits perfectly and makes my dachshund and I both feel more secure. It is well made and let’s my girl look very stylish while out walking. She had a previous neck injury and this harness takes all the strain of any pulling she may do off her neck and back area. I am now going to order two more for my other dachshunds.

My daughter first told me about the Hug-a-Dog harness a couple of years ago. She and her husband had one made when their Italian Greyhoud was around one, then, had another one made when he was going on four. They are fabulous harnesses, so I had one made for our 10 year old dachshund. I can't recommend them enough. The harnesses can be personalized and made just the way you want for any dog, from so many choices of materials, etc. I wish I could give this product 10 stars. Don't miss out on a wonderful and safe product for your precious pet!

Love it and people crack up that my dog has a handle! It truly does come in handy and my Lucas looks very dapper in his zebra stripes! Thank you!

This is the fifth harness I have ordered, the four previous wore out after a number of years. I am consistently amazed at the quality of the materials and the high degree of craftmanship. One feature I appreciate is that the harness is compatible with fleece coats, which are a must in Wisconsin in the winter.

Ordered 5 harnesses, 2 for my dogs, 2 for my son's dogs and 1 for a friend. They are beautiful and exactly as expected. The fit is good and very secure. The quality is exceptional and I appreciate that. Thank you

I highly recommend Hold-a-dog harness to all. It is perfect for doxies and all breeds. The service is beyond reproach and the quality of the product cannot be met. I love each one I've purchased for my fur loves.

I ordered two harnesses for my mini dachshunds. I have a little skinny guy and a typical deep chested, bigger guy. The harnesses fit each one perfectly, except the little guys neck is a little big, but with the clip closed, he's secure in it. Colors are gorgeous and I love their names on the harness. Couldn't be happier!

My little doxie looks so sharp in her harness! It fits like a dream, is easy to put on and take off, keeps her safer clipped into her seat in the car, and in general keeps her more comfortable on her leash. This is a well made product and a very good company to deal with. I cannot recommend highly enough.

I have purchased several of these harnesses through the years for my little dachshunds. The workmanship, quality and value cannot be matched. They are worth every penny! Thank you so much for your talent and quality construction!

Have been totally pleased with my orders as always. Have even ordered this for a rescue poodle mix grand dog Wonderful quality and fast service. Particularly love the way they are easy to put on the dogs.

We love our new Hold-a-Dog Harness from Dachshund Delights. Thank you so much! The quality is fantastic, and the "handle" is a much-needed safety feature when walking in medieval towns in Europe or hiking on steep trails in the Swiss Alps. I try to carry extra Dachshund Delights cards to give out, because I receive so many questions about Tootsie's adorable doxie wear.

Recently bought our second hug-a-dog harness. I could not be happier! The fit and the quality are great!! Jayda loves to have her harness put on. Thank you for providing such a wonderful product. It is normally so hard to find something to fit a dachshund, but these are a perfect fit

Have been using Hug a Dog Harness' for six dogs over several generations and wouldn't consider anything else. Everyone comments on them & ask where they can get them. We always have at least one Hold a Dog for each dog in the white mesh & add the reflective tape, our last name & phone number. That's our basic, then we add lined raincoats & other warmer items to layer to take us through the hot summer days & freezing winters. Every product we've ordered has been perfect. My one suggestion is if you purchase coats to go on top of the harness, add 1/2 inch on the measurements. Makes layering easier.

Our dogs have been wearing these harnesses for years. I am really happy with the selection of fabrics, fit, and the options for a name and phone number to be embroidered as well as adding reflective tape. Great job, as usual!

I wanted to say how happy i am with these harnesses I purchased two of them for both of my mini doxies and we LOVE them. They wear them in the car and we used them on our first walk this year and worked wonderful so happy we got them. Thanks again so much!!!!

we encourage all our adopters to use these harnesses with seat belt loop...falling off the seat during a quick brake or accident can seriously damage your dog's back among other things

The harness fits my dog perfectly and she seems very comfortable wearing it. It is very well made. I highly recommend it.

I wish I would have found this site sooner with all the money I have spent trying to find a harness for my doxie. We love it she does not look miserable anymore lol. Just got a doxie puppy will be reaching out to order him one soon also. thank you so much

Loved this design--my shy doxie looks edgy and fierce in this harness. Lola is on the chesty side and this is the only harness that doesn't rub.

I bought this harness for my dachshund 7 years ago, since now I have two for each of my dogs: My mini dachshund, beagle, and foster beagle. I love that you can design your own harness custom for your dog and the seatbelt handle at the top comes in handy.. Two of my dogs are escape artists and if they ever get away, they are gone (beagles) and this is the only harness I feel that they are secure in and can't get out of!

We have a Male Dachshund who is just over 2 years old, he loves to run and jump which is so bad for his back. We purchased the Hold a Dog Harness and we love it! It is so well made, and helps to control him without straining his back and neck. Since he is a 19 lb tweenie, almost a standard, he is quite large, thin and quick. It is great that we can order exactly the size he needs. It is hard to find harnesses that really fit, as he had a very large rib cage and a smaller neck...since Dachshunds have such a unique shape, it can be difficult to find a harness that really fits...these are perfect! The Hold A Dog Harness is our favorite as we like to use as we run the seatbelt through the loop and it keeps him safe and sound, and he can't get into things or explore while we are in the car. It also is helpful to hold onto him should another dog come around and they get too excited. We have purchased these harnesses for our last Dachshund, sho has since passed away, They are so well made! Since hers would not fit our boy, we passed them onto another liittle sweetheart, we even sent a couple back on the trade in program. They hold up very well and wash well too. Quite the fashion statement! We get many comments on these harnesses. It is great that we get to choose the look and style. They wash well and hold up to wear and tear and last for years. He likes his harnesses, we have a Hold a Dog harmess for when it is hot, or when we are going somewhere like the beach...that might otherwise trap sand and water, which would be abrasive to him.

I've used Hold-A-Dog and Hug-A-Dog harnesses for over 15 years now and they are the best! I still have the original set that I bought back in the 90's and they are still good. Great construction. They are very sturdy and I've never had a dog get out of one and get loose accidently. All in all, I think they are a great value!

I ordered the hold-a-dog harness as I have in the past, and as always the item is impeccably sewn and fits my Dachshund like a dream. I am able to fasten her into the seat of my car quite easily as well. I would like to say that the seamstresses at the company work very closely with the customers-I had follow up for a note I left to ensure the harness was sewn for proper fit.

This harness is the best for a dachshund. I used to use Cloak and Dawggie brand doxie harnesses, so when they went out of business I didn't know what I would do about the doggie's clothes! The Hug-A-Dog Harness is just perfect. It leaves their chest open and pulls only on their clavicle. The colors are beautiful- the trim on my dog's is a lovely violet, and the fabric is vibrant and wonderfully added to the harness. Additionally, I purchased reflective tape on the harness- it is very subtle and not offensive to the eye at all. It is placed on the rim of the piece that the Velcro is on. The embroidery done is spot-on, and they are wonderful about exchanges (I would measure a bit off the first time). The seatbelt feature works nicely as well- it allows them room to move, but not enough to travel the cabin. It is a good training tool for car rides (you know how they love the lap!). This harness is beautiful, durable, functional, and good for the shape of the doxie. It's great to receive handmade items- especially when they have this kind of quality. You also have the reassurance of being able to send it in for repairs if you are interested in keeping it long-term. Overall, I couldn't be happier with this custom-made harness, and my dog gets to look fancy to boot!

LOVE this harness. They are made so well and I feel very confident that my baby won't be getting out of it as it fits him perfectly! This is my second harness I have purchased. They are made so well that the last one I had for over 11 years and the harness is still good it is the material that was wearing out!!! Will never use anything else!

We have 3 of these now: our male dachshund has one, and our female now has her second. I suspect now the male will want another! The look great, and the dogs are quite comfortable in them. Being in the car with the seatbelt through the harness is so much better and safer, not to mention calmer, for them as well as for us. I will say that using the fabrics with a black background and vivid colors looks better longer than the pale fabrics which show dirt so much sooner. And of course when you are washing them, you will wish you had another harness. Thank you for making these, and for making them so well!

PapaMJ is proud to walk with his new harness. The ability to snug it on is great for him as he is learning to overcome shyness and fear. Thanks for another great product (not our first Hug a Dog).

Ever tried to fit a doxie harness? Their shape does't work with other commericial products. This is a good product and worth the money. My sweet Carolina is a therapy dog and works in schools with me several days a week. This means lots of car rides and now I know she is safe. I used this company previosly with another dog. I have always had good results.

I love the amount of colours and fabrics available to choose from! The harness is great quality, my doxie loves it :) Great service, will definitely buy from here again!

I got one for each of my weiner dogs, and they love them as much as I do. The fit is perfect, and the quality is fabulous. I use the handle on the Hold-a-Dog Harness to control and lift my dogs into and out of the crate in the back of my SUV. The dogs get extremely excited and jump like jumping beans when the trunk door opens, so I *need* the handles to hoist them securely to avoid injury to me and to them. Previously, I've gotten all scratched up, and had my face bonked by their jumping. Can't live with the Hold-A-Dog Harnesses.

We've been getting hug-a-dog harnesses ever since we adopted our two crazy dachshunds over 8 years ago. We love how easy they are to put on and take off. The extra "handle" on the back is great when they go in the car -- the shoulder harness slips right through and keeps them restrained. The reflective tape is especially nice when we're walking them either before sunrise or after sundown. Plus they come in such a wide variety of patterns and colors! Our boy has a very strong hunting instinct, so he's a rough on the harness (what with the crashing through bushes and climbing trees after squirrels), but they wear great.

Since 1996, we have had Hold-A-Dog Harnesses. They are made with love, exceptional care, and expert hands. If someone uses a product for almost 18 years with 6 of their last 6 doxies there is an established trust factor of the quality and character of the product that will be received and Dachshund Delights has NEVER failed to keep that trust.

This is my second hug a dog harness and Maggy Mae loves them!! They are made exceptionally well and in the USA!! The choice of colors is great and I will be ordering more as the weather gets colder here. The fit is great too and she walks much better on the leash. Any one who has a Doxie should have the harness, they are wonderful!!.
