Search & Rescue Dogs

Does anyone have any first hand information on abseil harnesses for dogs?

Pete.

Are you looking to purchase one Pete? or want info?

I think I have one here somewhere.

Think its made by Troll (Climbing Harness manufacturer)

Hi Pete

Is that the harness made by CATAC?

Pete - we have CATAC coming to a training night soon - Speak to Jon if you dont know already.

It certainly is

Cheers all. Now I just have to convince Kim to let me get one.

Pete.

Did you get a harness Pete?

How did the talk go with the CATAC Rep go?

We are waiting for them to come down, I will let you know how it gets on.

Catac make one for us, for rope access. If you go on their website I think its actually called the Fire Service Search And Rescue Team dog harness (FSSART). They are expensive because they are made to measure, but they are good!
