Miss-Flo Custom Dog Harness Review // Ammo the Dachshund

A couple of weeks ago my new pal Flo, from Miss-Flo, sent me one of her mom’s custom made harness and leash sets. And boy was I excited when it showed up in one of my favorite colors – teal!

I’ve never been a big fan of harnesses that have straps between the legs because they feel restricting, and it can be quite difficult to find a well-made harness that just sits across the chest.

These Miss-Flo harnesses are custom made to fit each dog, so you know it will be the perfect size for your own furry friend. As you can see mine fits me like a glove, and I like that the buckle is adjustable (should I ever eat too many cookies).

My Miss-Flo harness even came with a matching leash which boasted one of those extra strong snaps – because you can never be too careful when it comes to walking your pup! It also has a little metal loop by the handle to tie poop bags to or even snap a set of keys onto.

One of my favorite things about this harness was the velvety soft fabric that was against my skin. All of Miss Flo’s harnesses (and even the leash handles) are lined with velvet and they come in a variety of color choices too. Never again do I have to worry about my harness rubbing me in the wrong places, because believe me when I say this stuff is oh-so-soft!

Armed in my new harness I set off to roam my neighborhood – well and mostly just show off to all the neighbor dogs how really really good looking I was in it.

You may have already noticed me wearing my new harness in some of my other blog and Facebook posts, as I’ve been wearing it everywhere lately – it’s that comfortable!

Therapy Dog Harness

Posted on June 20, 2012 by Ammo

One of the rules when taking your Therapy Dog Test through TDI is that dogs must be tested on a plain buckle collar or harness. Training collars, training harnesses, halties, or any other corrective training devices are not permitted during testing or visiting as a TDI-registered Therapy Dog. And on their website they make note that Therapy Dogs don’t wear vests, so as not to be confused with service dogs, and also for the fact that they cut down on the area where people can pet you.

Even though I ended up taking my test in a plain buckle collar, mom knew that were I to become an official Therapy Dog I would need to wear a different harness when I was making visits.

Mom ended up ordering me a custom made harness from Arja’s Art all the way in Finland!

These harnesses come in a variety of colors that all include reflective piping with each one being handmade to your own dog’s measurements. Designed to fit any breed, they are especially great for dachshunds as they put less stress on our sensitive necks and chest.

I chose the grey color in super soft sheep napa and mom helped me get my measurements sent over to Arja.

When my new harness arrived from Finland a couple weeks later Arja had even included a sweet little gift for me in the package. While I personally don’t have a use for a coin purse (being that I’m a dog and also I am not a girl) it was a super sweet gesture – and mom was happy to keep it for herself.

I suggested storing cookies inside the coin purse, but mom didn’t seem too thrilled by that.

After a week of wearing my harness out and about I’m loving it. It’s great to for the hot summer weather too as it gives me a little more breathability. I still love my custom made harnesses from Kalyxcornucopia (that I wear with my Super Hero capes), but they just won’t work as well for my therapy dog work.

If you are interested in ordering a harness from Arja, you can check out the website and Facebook page – and they are available to ship to the US.
