Lou is such a patient, good boy, trying on all those different harnesses.
He’s a good lad and so funny too thanks again for watching best regards us 3 👍❤️😀🐾🍺🍟
Louie is a sweet dog, so calm. Thank you for taking the time to show us your harnesses and their use. It was fun seeing you lift him high in the air, he doesn't mind at all 🤗
Many thanks 🙏 😀🐾
Lou was such a patient & tolerant model. He just did the slightest yawn indicating he thought the proceedings were dragging on a wee bit. The information was very useful - thank you for posting.
Hi Rita he his a good lad and happy to help 👍 thanks again for watching very best regards that skinny dog and his poo pickers 👍🍟😀🐾❤️🍺
Hi, Great video, very helpful. I'd just like to add, for anybody who like me is on a budget, that these ruffwear harnesses are often available on ebay. People sell them on when maybe their pup has outgrown it or for whatever reason. I've just bought one in auction for 30 quid, size small for my Bedlington. It's hardly been used and an absolute bargain imo.
Good Call Denise 👍 Ebay always a good idea 👍 thanks again for watching very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
I love the TrueLove harnes! It's almost the same as the small ruffwere but it has a D ring in the front for a front lead and a handle in the back!
In US, if purchased at REI store, you get $20 store credit as a new loyalty customer. That nearly paid for a 2nd harness. Ruffwear has good customer service via internet, but at REI If you're unhappy, return anytime in 1st year (regardless of condition). Not sponsored. just a happy customer!
I love how you love your dogs. We had two Italian Greyhounds. The loves of our lives. Had to put both of them down because of cancer and kidney failure. Devasted me and my husband. I cried for months. Just an encouraging word to you. Dogs go to heaven. I asked the Lord for a visit from them. I got a visitation from both with a very quiet angel with a silver toga on with short wings on his sandals. His name is Ardell. So if you love the Lord - you will see Ben again in heaven! Greyhounds are the only dogs mentioned in the bible. Thanks for sharing. I will start again and get a new Italian Greyhound when we get moved. And get a harness. God bless you!
🙏
Thank you for sharing. I am glad you pointed out the 'slip forward' issue in regular harnesses We went into stores and tried on so many with some assistants assuring us that the 'neck chest ' type fitted. We have just bought our Tilly (Matilda) a Ruffwear Flagline. Super impressed that it fits a whippet body shape.
Many thanks Alison 🙏👍❤️
Thanks for your excellent descriptions and reasons about a harness instead of a collar. We watched your video as a family and all agree that you are a very caring and devoted whippet owner. Your whippet is very fortunate to have you.
Thanks again Alison we just love our Louie
Many thanks again for watching very best regards Us 3 👍😀❤️🐾🍺🍟
Your whippet is absolutely gorgeous. I'm so jealous of you owning a whippet. Unfortunately my circumatances arent right to own one at present hence why I'm here on UA-cam. You can tell he is well loved and it makes me happy seeing happy dogs. Keep up the videos bud !
Many thanks 🙏 Louie is a great dog 😀 please check out our other videos of our adventures with Louie thanks again for watching 👍😀🐾
What a lovely patient Louie, thanks for the info Dave.. very informative. Safe travels
Hi Lindsay his a good lad 👍 thanks again for watching very best regards Me, He and Her 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Brilliant information thank you. We are new whippet owners and you have really helped us to solve our harness problem! Thanks again.
Oh thank you 🙏 do check out our Instagram @whippetonemanandhis that’s also the best way to ask any questions 👍🙏🐾❤️
Thank you both.... I have searched for the perfect harness for my girl with no luck for a few years.... I stumbled across your video today and was absolutely delighted!! I have just bought a ruffwear harness for my girl based on your video.... Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate it for us 🙏
I went for a rather girly Red for her... Hope she loves it as much as your beautiful boy 💜
Thanks Joanne they are expensive Great quality and last forever 👍 we see so many whippets in then now and haven’t found anything as good 😀 thanks again for watching 👍😀🐾
G’day to the family good video Dave we went through the same problems finding a harness for Sasha and of course it was the dearest one we found that fitted her. Louie has a lovely temperament to just stand there and let you put on and off harnesses, your very good with him and it shows good one mate regards John
Hi John hope you are well 👍 he’s a good lad 😀 it looks like you get what you pay for with harness thanks again for watching very best regards us 3 up north 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
you were kind enough to answer our enquiry thank you..we use the smaller ruffwear harness ...it's a great quality and fit...
Thanks Judith happy to help 👍 thanks for watching very best regards us 3 👍😀🍺🐾🍟
Another great vid, Dave. Louie is a handsome, photogenic doggy model! Love to you, Jo and Louie. I wish you Peace and All Good.
Thanks my dear ❤️ hope your van coming on well 👍 thanks again for watching very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
I love the vids about your Whippet... He's so gorgeous!
Many thanks again my favourite one is called Just one man and his whippet this is the link ua-cam.com/video/b4CpxSCnxTw/v-deo.html 👍😀🐾
I remember when I came to your channel it was the harness I mentioned as you carried Louie on a hike. Very useful bits of kit that your both comfortable with. That's living in harmony. Mark
Hi Mark hope you are well mate and enjoy this weather 👍 anything to keep Louie happy and safe Thanks again for watching very best regards Us 3 Up North 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
@@onemanandhiswhippet I'm getting there Dave (tough two years). Nice weather helps. A pleasure to explore your story once more....
Wye Explorer take care mate I recommend time with a whippet ❤️ very best regards us 3 up north 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Awe, Louie is so sweet and patient. Those Ruffwear harnesses look great! Don't have a whippet yet, but planning for the future :)
They are the best friend you can have 🙏👍😍
Louie is such a beautiful soul. He's so calm and kind .. You can just tell!
But then... they say dogs are like their human companions. So I guess that's a compliment to you too my friend! :)
He’s a good lad 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
hehe, he really is! :) @@onemanandhiswhippet
Awww, Louie was a good boy trying on all those harnesses. Good osmo pocket production, nice slo mo action too. #whippetinslomo 👍🏼❤️🐾
Well thanks you dear sir 👍 would. That be a dog bag 🤔 see you and the other two at the weekend best regards us 3 up north 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
We also use Ruffwear stuff for our Greyhound. Especialy the Running leash is realy nice when we go for a run with her. Thx for sharing.
Excellent thanks for watching and letting us know best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Great video, thanks very much for posting! We've got a crossbreed Podengo we rescued from Portgual and it's been an adventure to get the right gear for her. She has the deep chest of the Wippet, so the double fastners of the Ruffwear harness look promising. We did finally find a harness she can't get out of, and there was a sharp contrast in her behaviour with collar vs harness. We will give ruffwear a go, Appreciate all the advice and fashion show. Lovely dog, very best to you all.
Many thanks Meta hope you find one to fit 👍😀🐾
What a great model!! We don't have a whippet, but our dog is nearly the same shape ( long legs, long lanky body, thin, long neck, small head). I wondered if the Ruffwear would be too cumbersome. Your video was SO helpful!!
Many thanks for watching Ruffwear do have a good website with all the Sizes on on the way to measure your dog too ruffwear.co.uk/collections/dog-harnesses 👍😀🐾
Excellent harness demo! Thanks😊
Thanks for watching 👍😀🐾
This guy really loves his dog great to see
Many thanks Shane 😀🙏
Thank you for an interesting video, I didn't realise there were so many different types of harness. Our whippet has slipped out twice from a whippet collar when he was younger and smaller, the second time he knew he could do it little monkey! I will definitely give a harness a try, for comfort as well. Thanks again. 😊🐕
Hi Jackie happy to be of service it is a game challenge using a harness we also use it for clipping Louie in to the car and Campervan for travelling best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Louie is so cute :) i like the harness idea for whippets, as i think it's more secure and you can pick him up like a little shopping bag :))
Hi Georgina hope you are well thanks again for watching Louie the hand bag dog 🤔 very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
What a gorgeous model Louie makes and so patient too. Very helpful video, I've seen many people recommend the ruffwear webmaster harness on whippet pages on FB. We do use a collar on Jason, one for whippets but tend to fasten it up behind his ears, he does have a long slender neck like Louie so I will look again at the harnesses, very helpful video 😊
Hi Lisa Many Thanks we’ve got to keep our skinny dogs comfortable 😀 thanks again for watching see you sooooooooooon
Best regards Me, He and Her 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Hi Lisa we now ha e our mugs and stickers if you can send me your address I will pop one in the post for you 👍 please send your address to onemanandhiswhippet@gmail.com

@@onemanandhiswhippet just spotted this, whilst rewatching all your videos😆
@@lisapmac2000 lol oh wow 😍🙏👍
Great video's. Me and my partner can't wait to get our own whippet as our first pet. For the past few weeks I have been looking at harness' and other gear for certain weather and terrain to make sure the dogs safe and comfortable. Looking to seeing more videos!
Thanks Ryan pleased you like our videos and great news you will ha e your Whippet soon 👍 exciting times thanks again for watching very best regards Us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Thanks Dave for a very informative vid
Hi Robert pleased you found it useful and thanks again for watching very best regards Me, He And Her 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
He is so cute!
Our whippet Mia is almost the exact colour and markings. None of the other whippets around here (Auckland, NZ) are similar to her.
Excellent we call Louie our skinny Tiger Dog 👍 thanks for watching please subscribe and check out our other videos of our adventures with Louie best regards Louie and his two poo pickers 👍❤️😀🐾🍺🍟
Whippets are the best dogs you can own fact, have 2 and lovely dogs to own.
Your not wrong there 👍 thanks for watching check out our other videos of our adventures with Louie 👍 best regards Louie and his two poo pickers 👍🍟😀🐾❤️🍺
Please don't use the word OWN!!! Sounds disrespectful, what would sound better is whippets are the best dogs to keep!! Sounds much better
I miss my dear Daphne, a brindle, so much. I would love to have another, if I could adopt one a bit older less inclined to pull me over as we walk (I use forearm crutches).
Hey Dave & Louie! I never used a harness on my old Whippet, but I had a lot of luck with martingale collars from Northwind Design. I also like the products from Blue Willow Dog Coats.
Thanks Michael I will check them out thanks again for watching very best regards us 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Aww he is so good bless him such lovely dogs the both of them 🥰
🙏 they are just great to live with 😍
What a beautiful dog I would love to get another one thanks for the very informative video thanks for sharing.
Hi Neville pleased you liked it thanks for watching very best regards Dave, Jo and Louie 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Really enjoyed your vid! It's so difficult finding the perfect harness for a whippet. I got mine made for my 3 it has the extra strap next to their tummies incase they back out off it. Really like the new ruffwear design plenty of room for their coats. Now I'm off too look at them lol 👍👍
Thank you 😀
Hi Lesley thanks again for watching pleased you liked it 👍what ever makes them whippets happy 😃
Very best regards Dave,Jo and Louie 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
very braw dowg and really good harness very enjoyable video
Thanks mate hope things are good for thanks for watching best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟

I’m looking forward to seeing that monster chainsaw that you are building
All the very best mate 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Such informative videos! We are looking at getting a whippet. This has helped us!
Many thanks for watching 👍 please check out our other videos of our adventures with Louie 👍 good luck finding your whippet 👍😀🐾
@@onemanandhiswhippet We did! Thank you :)
+Christopher Matthews 👍😀🐾🙏
Thats good little harness! wish we had an adventure puppy like you!!!
+Pelican Campers you need to get one 👍 thanks again for watching best regards 👍😀🍺🐾🍟
For everyday use, we've had good results with soft, whippet martingale collars (5.5cm/2.2" wide). Love Louie's harness, though. Great videos.
Yep they are probably the best collars 😀 thanks again for watching very best regards us 3 up north 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
We found Martingale collars were good training collars and discouraged pulling or resistance. Very comfortable and stylish and didn’t slip off. Like the harness as well.
I know some people who use Hurtta They have harnesses and lots of outerwear for dogs... - thanks for the informative videos...
Thanks for watching 👍
Thanks so much for that information it was very helpful. Your Louis is adorable
Many thanks Donna 🙏😍👍
@@onemanandhiswhippet Hi we have now purchased these harnesses from your recommendation and I gave you a shout our on my channel and linked your video explaining about them.
@@DONNASLIFE55 oh thanks Donna they are still the best harness I’ve found for a whippet 🙏👍😍
Our new arrival is a whippet/galgo cross. The rescue centre recommended the Ruffwear Webmaster because of the extra belly strap that means the dog can't back out of the harness. More expensive, but you get what you pay for.
Hi David congratulations on your new best friend 👍 yeps the ruffwear harnesses are just great quality I’ve not yet found a better one however I do think a cheaper One will be produced by somebody soon
Thanks again for watching 👍😀🐾
I’m not really a dog person as a rule, but love this video
Well thanks for coming along check out my other videos Best regards Dave, Jo and Louie 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Louis is a gorgeous animal and has a wonderful family! :)
Well thank thank you 👍 thanks again for watching very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Beautiful expressive eyes on Louie
What a sweet lad
this is a beutiful and very sweet video, thank you very much
Well thank you 👍😀🐾
We have been using collars on dogs for over 5000 years! and the earliest depictions are sight hounds. If you fit a collar properly and know how to handle a dog on a lead when it pulls backwards by not holding the leash rigid, then you wont have any trouble and you will be able to enjoy the beautiful physique of your Whippet instead of covering it up.
Ok thanks Jeff
Good looking dog. Nice video
Many thanks 👍😀🐾
I use martingale collars on all my whippets (and greyhounds and italian greyhounds) ...AND teach them to walk on the lead properly.
There is no excuse for pulling dogs.
Whippets can also pull out from a lot of harnesses, unless it has a (extra) strap which sits behind the ribs cage.
I do use a harness on my IG assistance dog which fits nicely under his vest. The straps go around his chest and the other sits behind his rib cage.
Cool thanks for the info 👍 and thanks for watching very best regards Louie and his poo pickers 👍🍟😀🐾🍺❤️
Martingale collars are our whippets choice....harness are great too!
Thanks Michele I will check them out 👍😀🐾
Haha Louie looked like a vicar with that colar on.😄.our dogs wear harnesses too as they pull like trains 😁
Hi Adam The most worshipfulness Louie 👍 he’s thinking to be in the next Pope 🤔 best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
🤣🤣🤙
I had the same pulling problem with my 2 dogs. We got harness with a lead clip on the chest and instantly the pulling stopped. As they pull forward it pulls their chest slightly to the side so they don't pull. Now we have lots of loose lead happy rambles.
A great thank you.
Hi Mellissa thanks again for watching very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Our two have Ruffwear, too. The 3 strap one with a handle. Our two, and our boy is a biggy, both have size small. Medium is way too big around the neck area. We do have basic harnesses, too. But they do slip about.
Hi Angela it’s looking like the Ruffwear harness are the best for whippet from the feedback we’ve had
Thanks again for watching very best regards
Dave, Jo and Louie 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
@@onemanandhiswhippet Hi Dave, yes, i think so. They fit like a glove around those skinny little bodies. Louie makes a great model, btw. He's just too cute!! All the best!
Angela Nicholson 👍
What's up buddy? Great video!
Hi Donna we are good thanks hope thing are good for you over there mate 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Great educational video Dave. Think ill buy sharon an harness. She hates her collar lol. See you soon. Love to Jo and Louie xxx
I think you are the the one that Sharon needs to keep on a lead 🤔 see you two at the weekend 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
@@onemanandhiswhippet LOL.
What a cracking dog louie is mate, absolutely fantastic temperament.... Swap yeah, for a scatty Boarder collie Cross labrador 🤔 ( Disclaimer everyone! I wouldn't swap Lulu 😊) , great video Dave! I found it therapeutic ( your sodding making me want a Whippet now! 🥺) 😊👍👍👍
LOL you have lots of room in that van you can fit a whippet racing track in 👍
I swap Jo if you have anything of interest 😀 ( I’m hoping she’s doesn’t see this) 🤔
Best regards mate see you sooooooooooon is 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
@@onemanandhiswhippet its like Swap Shop this 😂👍👍👍
One Man and His Whippet Dave Bertholini , I know you just want to stay in the Doghouse 🐶🏡 with Louie 🙃! Good thing that our dogs live in same house with us, lol ! Seriously, great video & very helpful. Gorgeous Louie is the perfect model. We are so in love 💞 with Louie. Mia sends kisses 😍 just Mia & Mom 🐾💖🐾💞
Colleen Tam Hi Colleen and Mia
Hope you are both well pleased you like Louie’s Modelling skills 👍 very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
One Man and His Whippet Dave Bertholini , Thank you always for reply & we are. Just in out of light rain. Mia not fond of rain. Louie is truly amazing model. So cute the way he was helping to get his head through harness. Wishing you a Good Weekend. 💚⛅🐾💖🐾💞
thanks for the video, i am now with my 4th whippet,who,s now 10 (all rescue ones) and have always been reluctant to use harnesses, i dont like the way they put pressure on the chest, and they,re usually huge things and hide half the coat. I certainly would never lift a whippet up by one, I was told by the old whippet boys,"theres only one way to lift a whippet, arm round front,arm round back" and NEVER under the waist. having seen this i MAY change my mind, B the way, i notice you dog still haS ITS DEW CLAWS.,bit dodgy in the hedges after rabbits. Good video and very informative.
Many thanks this harness after over 11 year of using them work well with whippets 👍 the dew claws do get Cut from time to time we have to be careful with I’m 👍 thanks for watching please check out our other videos of our adventures with Louie 👍😀🐾
Great vid and some sound advice. I hate the extendable Flexi type leads, esp on dogs with thin necks like Whippies. If they take off quickly and reach the end of the lead as it feeds out, they can do serious harm to the dog. Good advice about collars too.
Many thanks 🙏
Hey my friends. I wish my chihuahua would have worn a harness but he always wiggled his self out of it as a puppy. Love your whippet. Peace and blessings my friend 110👍😊
Hi There hope you two are well
Best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Great video and Louie is the sweetest! Where we are in Canada, we get pretty rough winters. Does the Ruffwear harness work with a jacket?
Yes 👍 check this video out 🙏😍👍
Great video. I can’t wait to get my whippet! Where do you recommend adopting in the UK? Love to Louie and you both
Rescue centres keep Loki g them up on the web lots of the centres have listing of their dog on their websites 👍😀🐾
he just adorable I might be worried if the harness go stuck though if he went through trees or such or stuck on a gate or something
+Debbie In Manchester Hi Debbie didn’t think of that however in all the times we’ve had Ben and Louie running around in the woods we never had a problem.
Thanks again for watching very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
They 're great harnesses i have just got my Whippet pup a 3 peaks harnessing looks the same as that they are £20 from legs at home or i got a new one from eBay i just hope it's as good as the ruffwear one
👍 thanks for watching 👍😀🐾
Louie is just so handsome. Such a good boy 💖 we use harnesses on Sparky and Sadie Mae, I don't like collars. Sparky's collar is called Chihuahua stud😂😂 Love to y'all 🤗🤗🤗💖🌷

Great harness demo...can the Ruff Wear harness be slipped out of...? I wish I could read his mind as you are doing this... His expression is priceless!!!
Lol 😂 thanks no there’s no way they can get out of them 👍 thanks for watching 👍😀🐾
We recently got a Lurcher from Battersea, she is now 2 years old and so much fun! I am trying to find a suitable harness for her, I have the Halti one that you showed, but I am not keen on it. I shall enjoy watching your videos
Many thanks Margaret 🙏 and well done help a rescue dog ❤️ good luck and all the best 👍😀🐾
So elegant & sweet!
🙏😍😍
Louie. Top model. Beats all the 2 legged variety into a hat.
Lol thanks Elisabeth he like his outfits 👍 thanks again for watching very best regards Louie and his two poo pickers 👍❤️😀🐾🍺🍟
Hello.....have u reviewed the ruff master flag line range ? Would u recommend for an Italian greyhound whippet cross ?. Love your northern no nonsense approach !
Hi there
No sorry not use one 🙏🐾
Soo sweet dog
Well thank you and thanks for watching best regards Dave,Jo and Louie 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
bondage gear for whippets? do they do anything in kirsty's size
Great vid totally for harness's when dogs are travelling in a vehicle can never be too safe
I heard recently legislation has been passed if you have a unsecured dog in a vehicle it can land you a £2000 fine
Wow I don’t know that was the fine 🤔 I’ve probably got one somewhere for Kirsty 😜 thanks as always for watching very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Hi hope you both are well. Hugs to Lord Louie. X
Hi Elizabeth we are all good thanks you 🙏 hope things are good for you too 👍🐾😀❤️🙏
Interessante video su collari e pettorine Io attualmente uso un collare per whppet o anche una pettorina che non è proprio idonea per levrieri .
Thanks for watching 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Awesome Brother Keep It Up Let Me Know When Your In Ireland :-)
Thanks again for watching 👍 very best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
As always a great informative video, thank you. Could you recommend the best harness for Fred Basset, He wore his last on out at the weekend. As you know he runs off the lead over the hills and pulls a lot when hes on the lead due to the potential stokes he can spot looming and/or scents of picnics or wild rabbits, squirrels etc... Your advice would be most appreciated :) Dan
LOL Hi Dan Fred is a star 👍 I think he needs a trip to the pet shop and a visit to the fitting room 😀 I see Fred in a flat cap And a smoking jacket best regards Dan and Fred All the best for us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
HaHa, tried that last time but the staff and customers wouldn't let him be. Bloody General Public couldnt even let a Basset get his correct fitting done so I went on t'tinternet and it only lasted 8 months (Anamol no pull soft type I think?) or so. Would you recommend a £40 Jus type ones? They seem OK?
It’s always best to try them on first or you will end up with a lot of them like us Pets at Home look to have a lot of them if you can get there
Best of luck Dan 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Haha, that's where I tried last time and a local store also but the selection was crap. I may ask a mate from the Pagan camps to make him a bespoke, Michelle (Saffrron Crafts) specialises in hand made clothing from any materials. All bespoke to order. :)
@@onemanandhiswhippet
Dan Sole that sounds like an excellent plan 👍
Am OK ta. Hate this hot weather. X
Good hopefully it will cool down soon 👍😀🐾
Also the harness without a handle is a ruffwear front range and the one with a handle is a ruffwear webmaster. I really don't think there is a better harness than the webmaster. Definitely not for any dog with a small head, a deep chest and a tiny waist. I went through umpteen harnesses before I found the webmaster, they were always ill fitting somewhere.
Yep I agree we have test fitted a large number of harnesses in a number of pet shops and not found one better fit a whippet
Thanks again best regards us 3 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Louie so cute
He’s a good lad thanks for watching 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
is there room on the Ruff Wear harness to put the Therapy Dog badge to make it more comfortable for Louie - it could be his going to work harness
HiChrista yes we don’t use the cheap harness and we can fit the Badges on the Ruffwear harness if needed thanks again for watching very best regards us 3 👍😀🍺🐾
i prefer collars but lurchers have slightly thicker heads. hunter makes great collars
👍 thanks for watching 👍😀🐾
Love Lou. Why don't you use a Martingale? I have never used anything but them on my greys and now my whippets.
Hi there yes they are good but I just don’t like the pull on the neck and I’ve always found my whippets have always walked better in a harness too also with the harness we use I can easily pick them up to get over a wall, in and out of the car and on and off things like boats too 👍 thanks for watching 👍🙏🐾😀
Ahh louis! Sending love
Well thank you 👍😀🐾
@@onemanandhiswhippet you are both teaching me so much before i get a whippet! Thank you.
👍😀🐾🙏
What a grand little dog.
Better to use a harness...doesnt hurt the trachea.
You are a real animal person.
+mostly cats 222 many thanks for watching 😀👍🐾🍟❤️
Have you tried the harnesses by dry dogs? It looks really similar to the ruffwear ones but a bit lower price point, so wondering how they compare!
No sorry not tried that one yet 👍👍
One man And his sono contento che i miei commenti vengono apprezzati ma Pultroppo come o già detto altre volte non so l'inglese per ciò avolte mi risulta difficile commentare questi bellissimi video che ritraggono questi amatissimi levrieri a cui io e mia moglie abbiamo dedicato la vita noi per loro è loro per noi.
Thanks again for watching 👍😀🐾🍺🍟
Hi, I love watching Louie and you together, thanks for your content, keep it going please. I do have question though, I have a almost 6 month whippet, I going to get a Ruffwear harness, but I am wondering what size in inches Louie is?as I am unsure what size to get, as my dog measures 21 inches, but dont want it to be to big if I go up to the Small. Thanks for your help.
Thanks Tracy that’s very nice of you 🙏 Louie is 20” and our old Whippet Ben was 21” and they both used the small Ruffwear harness
There’s lots of adjustments so you can make it smaller or open it up if you need to fit a jacket too 👍 thanks again for watching it’s only 3 weeks and we bring Rosie home too 👍😀🐾
@@onemanandhiswhippet okay that is great info, thanks. Wow, only 3 weeks, not long now. I love having my little Jed, he is such a character. thanks again.
👍😀🐾
Hello hello, did you try Ruffwear Flagline on Loui? We have a Front Range harness, but we’d like to have a handle and cant decide between Webmaster and Frontline. Thanks!
Yes we have one but there’s still no better one than the webmaster for us 👍 hope that helps 🙏👍🐾
I have Martingale collars on both my Whippets and they have never pulled out of them.
Yep it you are using a collar on a whippet that’s the sort to use they need to be well fitted tho 😀 thanks for watching 👍😀🐾
I'm trying to get one, mines six months old but very skinny, I bought a Trixie harness a shop recommended, within five mins my dog escaped. I'm hoping a XS will fit as I'm looking for second hand one to start. Also because the problem of his head now being almost same width of his head means collars slip.
Hi there
It’s so important to get a good harness
Check out this if you’ve not see it ua-cam.com/video/_l9ZoS8sUa4/v-deo.html
Louie is in a Small Ruffwear Webmaster and Rosie is a small whippet and she’s in a X small
They do have lots of adjustments in them too
Hope that helps 👍🙏🐾
Hi Dave, getting a Whippet girl puppy in a couple of weeks time and have seen you have a Ruffwear Webmaster in XS for Rosie but just want to know if I could manage to go straight for the small size as they say on their website that they do have extra adjustment above what they say against specific sizing and I know you have the small and extra small. Any chance of your thoughts please.
Hi Nick just get a cheap one to start with you can get the for under £10 then when you know the size of your whippet you can get the right one Ben and Louie users small and Rosie is a small whippet so is in a XS you will get an idea of the size of your whippet from her parents 👍🙏🐾
Louie is gorgeous, love your videos
Many thanks for watching Freya 👍🐾😀
Aww thank you, you're such a good channel. I'm only young and my parents won't let me get a dog but I do my GCSE exams in a few years and I may be able to get one then. So I'm binge watching loads of dog videos and researching now so I can focus on spending more time with the pup then and not panicking and being prepared. You videos are really helpful and I appreciate the hard work you put in, especially how quick you are to reply to your followers, if it were me I'd be eating and cuddling Louie, being lazy 😂. Give Louie a hug for me xxxx
Freya Dennis Lol 😂 your parents have a good plan 👍 your hugs are passed on to Louie take care Freya there’s lots of Louie on Instagram too @whippetonemanandhis 👍🐾😀
I'm sorry but I don't have Instagram as I'm not allowed :(
I'll be sure to look at it as soon as I get it though, I've asked my dad and he said yes but he keeps forgetting 😂
And thank you for passing on my hugs 😂
Stay safe. Xxx
I have a dark brindle whippet al
Excellent good for you 🙏😍👍
Roughwear have an array of harnesses.. Could you list the specific harness you have for Louie please
Hi there the one we use it the Ruffwear Web Master Dog Harness size small for Louie 👍 thanks for watching 👍😀🐾
Hello, thanks so much for this! I'm going to get a 4 months old whippet next week but I am not sure what size I should choose... He doesn't have the size of a puppy anymore and is bigger than his brother whippet, but isn't an adult yet either... I was thinking of getting an 02 XS 43-56 cm Ruffwear Flagline harness- does that seem ok to you? Or should I directly buy an S like yours? Thanks in advance for your answer :-) Take care.
Hi there if your whippet is medium or large you need a small 👍🙏😍
@@onemanandhiswhippet 👌Thank you very much for answering, it's very kind of you 😁
🙏👍🐾
Ruffwear are the only harnesses that work on my little whippet. Their slender body is hard to find good harnesses for
👍 thanks Sarah
I use a collar when I want him to stay close to me. I have much better control over him this way. Otherwise, a harness is better.
👍 thanks for watching 👍🐾😀
Hey I got a whippet myself and want to order a Ruffwear Webmaster harness. I see you showing that Louie uses size S, and I am curious about wether to order the same size. I suspect my little girl and Louie is physically the exact same size, but do you know in inches or cm how large he is around the chest?
Hi there sorry we are away at the moment with little signal if you go to there website it show all the size and how to Measure you dog too
Louie is an average size whippet and there lots of adjustments for it to go smaller and bigger so he can have his jacket on too
Hope that helps Best regards Louie and his two poo pickers 👍❤️😀🐾🍺🍟
Hello, unsure which harness to get for my whippet girl, the webmaster or the lighter flagline. Your thoughts on this would be most appreciated, stay safe. Bill.
Hi Bill I would definitely go fir Ruffwear Webmaster it’s still the best all round harness for a whippet depending on the size of your whippet you will probably need a small or an XS it will last you for years and is very Comfortable for the dog too 👍 hope that helps 👍🙏🐾

Hi Dave, thanks for the reply. My whippet Nellie is almost 19 weeks and measures 47 cms at the chest which falls in the xs size category which goes up to 56 cms. Should I wait a further 2 months until she has hopefully stopped growing in case she then requires a size small? Taking your advice and getting the webmaster.👍👍
Hi Bill yes don’t spend your money on a Ruffwear harness until she is over 25+ weeks so you get the right size but in the interim just get a cheap one for now we only paid £6 for Rosie’s first one 👍🙏🐾
Can a whippet be a good running buddy for my 7 mile runs?
Some can but generally they like short very fast runs 👍🐾😀
