How The Whippet Harness / Greyhound Harness Works
Traditional harnesses do not account for the unique shape of a sighthound or their knack for escaping harnesses.
Our escape proof harness has a third strap which tucks behind the chest which has a smaller measurement, so it physically cannot slide forwards.
FAQs
Does this harness have clips / buckles on both sides?
Yes, however, not all sizes / colours do by default so you may have to message us.
Our previous design did not have this feature, and we still have some of this stock left which has to be shipped out first unless you message to ask for the new design.
The only colours / sizes that we still have the old design for are:
Large - Green, Red & Grey
XS - Grey
If you order any of the styles above and require a clip on both sides, you must message us after placing your order here.
How do I choose the right size for my sighthound?
Measure around the widest part of their chest to get their measurement and then choose the corresponding size.
XS - 43-56cm / 17-22" - Recommended for Italian Greyhounds, small Whippets, puppies
S - 56-69cm / 22-27" - Recommended for Whippets and Adolescent dogs
M - 69-81cm / 27-32" - Recommended for Greyhounds, Lurchers, Salukis, Galgos
L - 81-107cm / 32-42" - Recommended for large greyhounds, large lurchers and other large sighthound breeds
Is this harness suitable for cross breeds and non-sighthound breeds?
Absolutely! The harness is really adjustable so you'll be able to get a perfect fit for cross breeds and non-sighthound breeds too!
In fact, we've had professional dog trainers recommend our harness for non-sighthound breeds as well, so you can be assured that it will work for you.
If you order it and feel that it's not quite right, you can return it for a full refund under our Satisfaction Guarantee.
Why are there no belly measurements?
You only need to measure your dogs chest for the perfect fit.
This harness is made specifically for sighthounds and we're confident in our measurements.
As long as you order the right chest size, you will be able to adjust the belly strap to fit perfectly.
My dog is between sizes, what do I do?
We recommend buying the larger size. It will allow any growing room and make sure it isn't too tight and you can adjust it down to the right fit.
If you're really unsure, I'm happy for you to order both sizes and return one. Take care when handling the products and try on the one you think is right first. Our normal returns policy applies.
Which size do you recommend for each breed?
This is not an exhaustive list, and every dog is different, so we would still recommend measuring to make sure you order the right size, however, the below recommendations can be a good guide:
Whippet Harness - Small, or XS for smaller whippets
Greyhound Harness - Medium, or Large for bigger greyhounds
Lurcher Harness - Small, Medium or Large, lurchers really do come in all shapes and sizes :)
Italian Greyhound Harness - XS
Saluki Harness - Medium, or large for bigger salukis
Puppies - Likely an XS or Small, but we recommend measuring and being aware of how much they're likely to grow. If they're close to the next size up it may be worth ordering the larger size so that they can grow into it.
Can this sighthound harness be used with a coat?
Absolutely! Many owners choose to put the harness on over the coat and that works great and looks very trendy.
If you'd prefer it to go under the coat, you'll need to make sure that your coat has a harness hole in the right position. We're happy to recommend some!
Can my sighthound escape from this harness?
It is virtually impossible. Our sighthound escape proof harness features a unique three-strap design, including a secure third strap.
This third strap tucks behind the chest so that it physically cannot slide forward which makes it escape proof, perfect for houdini dogs.
Is this harness comfortable for extended wear?
Absolutely! The padded design, including the chest piece and belly straps, ensures optimal comfort, making it suitable for both short walks and longer adventures.
The perforated material helps keep your dog cool in summer months.
I'm worried my sighthound won't like wearing a harness?
That's understandable, especially if your sighthound hasn't worn a harness before, but let's put your mind at ease.
So far this hasn't been an issue with any of our customers.
Most are happy right from the get go, but some sighthounds can take a minute to warm up if it's different to what they're used to, but the harness is really comfortable and they'll soon forget that it's even on!
In the unlikely event that your dog is taking longer to adjust, we have this handy blog post to help out :)
How adjustable is this harness?
Our harness offers five points of adjustment, allowing you to customise the fit for your sighthound's unique body shape, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit.
Does the harness restrict movement?
Not at all! The slim chest piece design allows for unrestricted movement, providing your sighthound with the freedom to walk, run, and play comfortably.
Will this harness rub my sighthound?
No, we've taken measures to ensure it won't rub your dog.
The chest piece is slim and the strap that goes underneath leaves plenty of room between the pits / arms. The chest strap is far enough back that this also won't rub the pits / arms, and you can adjust how far back this goes to ensure a comfortable fit.
We've also covered the buckles and padded the straps so these won't rub either.
Is it easy to put on and take off?
Absolutely! The harness is equipped with quick-release buckles, making it quick and effortless to put on and take off your sighthound.
Is this harness lightweight?
Yes! Despite being made from durable materials, the harness is still lightweight.
XS - 160g
Small - 215g
Medium - 296g
Large - 335g
Can I wash the harness?
Yes, the harness is machine washable for easy cleaning.
Can I use this harness in a car?
Yes you can, it is a perfect greyhound car harness, whippet car harness, and is also great for any other sighthound or non-sighthound breed.
We have dog car seat belts available here to use with this harness.
Are the handles durable?
Yes, the multi-function handles are designed to withstand regular use and provide you with optimal control during walks, no matter the situation.
What makes this harness safer than a collar?
Unlike collars that put strain on the neck, our harness distributes any force across the chest, reducing the risk of injury and providing a safer walking experience for your sighthound.
Is this harness suitable for a puppy?
Yes, it will make a great whippet puppy harness or greyhound puppy harness, or any other breed for that matter. It is really adjustable so it should allow plenty of growing room for your puppy too!

What sighthound breeds is this harness suitable for?
Our harness isn't just a trendy whippet harness, or just for greyhounds, is suitable for all sighthound breeds, including but not limited to, greyhounds, whippets, lurchers, italian greyhounds, salukis, galgos, podencos, wolfhounds, deerhounds, borzois, afghan hounds, cross breeds and more.
What is a 3 strap harness?
A 3 strap harness, also called a 3 point harness, is a harness with 3 'connection' points.
With a connection point on the front of the chest, around the chest and around the belly, ours is a 3 point harness, designed just for sighthounds.
The 3 strap design is considered to be a no escape harness, or an escape proof dog harness.
Is this an escape proof dog harness?
Yes, this is an escape proof dog harness. Thanks to the third strap, it is almost impossible for the harness to slip forwards, making it an anti escape harness / no escape harness / non slip dog harness / anti slip dog harness.
We also like to call it a houdini dog harness because it stops even the best escape artists in their tracks!
