Description

The Freemotion harness WD is a working dog pulling harness designed for activities such as running, biking, skiing or pulling objects like chains or a tire. The original Freemotion harness was developed for activities with a high pulling center only. However, the two side rings on this version allow you to attach the Pulling attachment WD (sold separately). This feature enables resistance training with a low-pulling center for added versatility.

When leaning into the harness, the pull force is distributed evenly over your dog’s body. The harness is designed with inspiration from working horse tack where the pull force is coming from the side of the neck, in addition to top and bottom. This unique design combined with a Y-shaped neck opening allows your dog to move unrestricted with minimal breathing constraints.

Crafted with heavy-duty materials, the products in our Working dog series offer unrivaled strength and durability.

You can personalize the Freemotion harness WD with patches attached to the hook and loop fasteners.

The Freemotion harness WD comes in the color olive and is available in sizes 4-8. The harness is adjustable for optimized fit.

How to choose the right size and adjust the Freemotion harness?

The size finder on the product's page will help you find the correct size for your dog. Based on the measurements, simply fill in your dog’s numbers and a size will be suggested for you. With this tool, you will also see if your dog is close to going one size up or down. If your dog is in between sizes, we recommend you choose the bigger size for small/medium dogs (up to size 6) in particular. The colored tab on the harness indicates which size the harness is.

The harness’s dimensions are available on the product page if needed.

What is the difference between the elastic and the static sidestraps?

Elastic sidestraps give your dog a few more centimeters for each stride. Because of this, athletes doing canicross and skijoring prefer elastic sidestraps. The elastic straps are made for racing, but are less durable than the static straps.

How to change the sidestraps?

Open the metal-buckle, pull the worn strap through the webbing, and plastic-buckle. Take the new strap, first guide the strap through the plastic-buckle, through the webbing and back into the metal-buckle. The side strap should be tight.

Why do the sidestraps break?

The sidestraps get worn, and you might need to replace them. There are replacement sidestraps in the web-shop, both elastic and static (from size 4 and up).

What is the difference between the Combined harness and the Freemotion harness?

Both harnesses are designed for activities with a high pulling point, such as canicross/running, biking, and skiing. The Combined harness and the Freemotion harness have the same fundamental design. The Combined harness has built-in reinforced battens around the neck to give extra support. The Combined harness also has attachments for a pulka.
