[NAGDU] Harness Strap Width

[Lisie Foster]

Thank you, Buddy! I can't tell why my harness feels so different and looks so different from most other harnesses. I love it, it's amazing -- but there's just something about it that is different. It's not as stable, easily leans to one side, and often doesn't sit well on my dog. It's very simple, which I love. It's just a girth strap and a chest strap, each made of beautiful brown latigo leather, with white stitching, but is unpadded, all straps uniformly just under 1" and single ply leather. I'm also doubting my decision to order a harness without the bunny ear stabilizers....
