Need Harness suggestions

Chandi runs beside my bike and he need to have a harness on so i can control him better, although the one i have is cutting into his chest and it is also tangling in his hair. does anyone know of a good harness for sheepdogs?

You will have better luck with a racing harness. Check out the sites for sled dogs. I have some from Black Ice and Windigo. I prefer the x-backs - they seem to fit better.

You can't see it under all the hair.....

Thanks- that picture is amazing. I love it.
WOW!!! Dawn...that looks like fun!!!!!
we use a harness on the bike - it begins with an S and is suppossed to clip in front. instead I flupped it to clip on top. I have racing harnesses too but - being next to th ebike I prefer the other harness for that. Marley is in full coat and I don't have issues with it and her fur.
when you ride a bike with your dog do you hold the leash in your hand or do you attach it to the bike?? I am not sure what would work better
Perhaps you would like to try bikejoring? I have seen it at races and it looks like great fun!
Here are a couple articles:
