Hi Shane

If I was looking for a good quality harness tracking, I would use this site:- http://www.karenswood.co.uk/htm_site/ca ... sses_2.htm

They have supplied equipment to the working trials fraternity for many years.

It depends what type of Groundscenting you like to do. If you thinking of trailing it is important that the dog is able to move the shoulders freely and that the harness has a chest plate, to support a fast and strong scent follower. I hope this helps.
