Excerpted from the website:
- The story of how we got into dog sledding doesn’t begin with dog sled races or huskies, or in other way that you might imagine. It begins with a little girl and her family pets, which at the time happened to be 2 great danes and a collie. I (Mom) thought it would be fun to teach one of our danes (named Pongo) how to pull our daughter Maria on a sled. I mean why not? He was huge, even for the breed, and strong. Maria was 4 that winter, almost 5 and Santa just happened to bring her a GT Snowracer for Christmas. I searched and searched the internet, looking for some type of a harness that would fit a dane and work for pulling her sled. I didn’t want a carting harness, and because of his height I didn’t want a typical x-back sled harness for fear of putting too much downward pressure on his hips. I finally had the good fortune to come across the website for AKKO Sports in Quebec and found exactly the type of harness I needed. Their BH model harness was a sled style harness, but instead of having one tug loop at the base of the tail, there were D-rings with trace lines attached at each side of the harness, and nothing over the hips. Perfect. I contacted them about ordering and sizing and found Judith to be an absolutely wonderful person to deal with.
