KENNEL Outdoor Dog Harness


Description of the KENNEL Outdoor Dog Harness: "The robust KENNEL Dog Harness is the perfect harness for especially active dogs. It is made out of high quality, ultra-strong nylon fabric and has a soft, easy to clean neoprene inner lining in the chest and shoulder area. Thus, it is always soft on the skin and protects the coat.
With the additional chest pad, the pressure distribution in the chest area is a lot better supported. It therefore is especially suitable as a sport harness for jogging and running next to a bycicle. The fit is easily adjusted via the chest strap. The harness has to be pulled over the head. When the dog is measured it is important to measure the head circumference so that the harness can easily fits over the head.
All Kennel products are reflective and visible at night.

Available colours are orange, blue, green and purple.
The KENNEL Outdoor Dog Harness is available in 3 sizes; 30-50cm chest circumference (30cm neck circumference), 40-60cm chest circumference (40cm neck circumference) and 60-80cm chest circumference (60cm neck circumference)."
  
Rocky has a KENNEL Outdoor Dog Harness in the colour orange and size 30-50cm.




Rocky wearing his KENNEL Outdoor Dog Harness:





Review: As I first saw this Dog Harness I was a bit unsure how I would like it as the form is quite unique. I think the Harness fits Rocky really well. It has a lot of room around the neck and armpit area and therefore does not bother Rocky anywhere. Furthermore, the webbing band is quite wide and therefore does not cut in anywhere. I think the chest pad is a bit big but still ok. I really like the Rocky as it suits him well.
 
 
 
KENNEL Outdoor 2-in-1 Dog-Softshell Coat


Description of the KENNEL Outdoor 2-in-1 Dog-Softshell Coat: "The flexible 2-in-1 Dog-Softshell Coat with a removable fleece inner lining keeps your dog warm and try in all weathers. Thus, the Coat becomes an all year round Dog Coat. The Coat is water-repellent and breathable. It has elastic leg straps and can be perfectly adjusted to the dog's body via additional velcro straps. Due to two openings on the neck area, one can easily use a colour or harness under the Coat and can thus easily attach a lead. All Kennel products are reflective and visible at night.

Only available in the colour black/grey.
Available in 6 different sizes; XS (neck circumference 20-29cm, chest circumference 30-37cm, back length 25cm), S (neck circumference 30-33cm, chest circumference 38-44cm, back length 32cm), M (neck circumference 34-39cm, chest circumference 34-39cm, back length 39cm), L (neck circumference 40-46cm, chest circumference 40-46cm, back length 46cm), XL (neck circumference 47-53cm, chest circumference 47-53cm, back length 53cm) and XXL (neck circumference 54-60cm, chest circumference 54-60cm, back length 60cm)."

Rocky has a KENNEL Outdoor 2-in-1 Dog-Softshell Coat in size XS.






Rocky wearing his KENNEL 2-in-1 Dog-Softshell Coat:




Review: The KENNEL Outdoor 2-in-1 Dog-Softshell Coat unfortunately did not fit at all. It fitted well on the back as the back length was exactly according to Rocky's size and I also really liked that it is a 2-in-1 Coat so that it can be worn when it is raining on warmer days but also in winter when the temperatures are cold. Unfortunately I think that the Coat is cut too deep in the front and therefore firstly does not cover up the top part of the neck and secondly distrubingly hangs in front of the front legs. I am not sure if this is due to Rocky's size or form or due to the Coat itself. I also think it would fit a lot better if the front velcrop strip would be longer so that the Coat could be adjusted tigther around the front chest. Thus, it might would have fitted a lot better. I think that one has to try it on every individual dog in order to see if it fits or not.
 
 
  
KENNEL Outdoor Keyring




Review: We have also received a KENNEL Outdoor Keyringas a little addition which fits the KENNEL Outdoor Dog Harness in colour. This is a promotional gift which is why there are not information on this on the Norska Website. I really like it whatsoever.

Rocky wearing his holly.ropes Collar- and Lead Set in real leather in dark brown / brass:
 


Review: I really like the holly.ropes Collar- and Lead Sets. They look very noble and fit really every size of dog as the size can be individualized. I think the Set in nature suits Rocky a bit better than the Set in dark brown. But both are really pretty. The Set in nature is a bitt thinner as the one in dark brown. Both however are very soft to touch and hold. Furthermore, they are both very sturdy. One can tell that they were made with a lot of care and effort. Only the metal fittings are a bit big for small dogs but yet ok.
Overall, I can definitely recommend the Sets as they are modest but yet chic Collar- and Lead Sets.

Available sizes are 35cm (6mm wide), 50cm (8mm wide), 65cm (10mm wide) and 75cm (12mm wide).
Available colours are pink, baby pink, green, blue, orange, red, black, brown and white."

Rocky wearing his Leather Collar ROUND:
 


Review: The Leather Collar ROUND by MORRIS is very well made. It is super soft and adapts very well to the dog neck. Furthermore, it looks very noble and is available in various colours. It is also great that the stop can be individually adjusted so that the dog can't escape. I especially like Collars with choke stops when we go to friends or the vet where Rocky would anyways be running around "naked" as the collar is quickly put on and taken off. However, Rocky wears a harness for general walks.
 
  
  
Leather Collar SKULLS


Description of the Leather Collar SKULLS: "Cool noses wear MORRIS Skulls. Eye-catching colour combinations as well as noble skull rivets offer the perfect outfit for every walk. Hard-wearing faux leather wraps a robust nylon core which guarantees a necessary strength, even for big dogs. An additional stability is ensured by the usual high-quality cowhide full leather by MORRIS. The MORRIS "Skulls" line is available in many different sizes and widths - even for small Rocker!

Available sizes are 25cm (12mm wide), 35cm (14mm wide), 50cm (20mm wide) and 60cm (25mm wide).
Available colours are black/pink, black/orange, red/black, black/red, baby pink, blue and white/pink."

Rocky wearing his Leather Collar SKULLS:



 
Review: The Leather Collar SKULLS is very cute. It has a great width for Rocky and is thus not too thin. This Collar is also very well made and available in a variety of colour combinations and sizes. Therefore, one can combine different MORRIS items well.
 
   
   
Leather Harness GLAMOROUS


Description of the Leather Harness GLAMOROUS: "The small but fine Leather Harness GLAMOROUS is ideal for small dogs. Nice, elegant and practical. With a great, moving clasp on the back.

Available sizes are 30cm, 35cm, 40cm and 45cm.
Available colours are black, red, blue, baby pink, pink and purple."
(Source: www.morrisandjake.com/produkte/leder/geschirre Translated by me)





Rocky wearing his Leather Harness GLAMOROUS:






Review: The Leather Harness GLAMOROUS is again very well made. The leather is nicely soft and adapts well to the dog's body. The Harness has a small but fine colour choice. This type of Harness is nevertheless only available for very small to small dogs.
Even though I generally like the Harness, it especially bothers me that this Harness does not have a chest strap (which is only added to Harnesses for big dogs). Without a chest strap the Harness functions just like a Collar and thus the good feature of the Harness is lost which usually protects the larynx of the dog and spreads the pressure while pulling on the whole body. Also, for the me Harness is not wide enough for Rocky's size. There are however small dog owners who prefer this type of Harness. For us personally, we prefer Harnesses with chest straps.
 
   
   
3-way adjustable Leather Lead COLOUR CRACK


Description of the 3-way adjustable Leather Lead COLOUR CRACK: "Due to the wide variety of colour combinations of the MORRIS Colour Crack Leads, they perfectly fit into every product range. The Leads are characterised by the soft, carefully processed nappa leather on the inner side, as well as the robust cowhide full leather on the outer side. With a total length of 220cm and the 3-way adjustability, the Colour Crack Lead is perfectly suitable for any situation.

Available in the widths 12mm, 16mm and 20mm.
Available colours are black, black/pink, black/blue, black/brown, black/red, black/lilac, black/nature, black/white, light blue/black, baby pink/black, red/black, purple/pink, bubblegum and brown/nature."
(Source: www.morrisandjake.com/produkte/leder/leinen Translated by me)






 
Rocky wearing his Lead COLOUR CRACK:



Review: The Leather Lead COLOUR CRACK is available in a wide variety of colour combinations and widths. Therefore, the Lead can be easily combinated with differen Collars and Harnesses by MORRIS. Our Leather Lead COLOUR CRACK colour fits well to Rocky's other MORRIS Collars and Harness. It is nice and soft to touch, and has a good length. I love adjustable Leads as the it is suitable for both, walks on the pavement (short Lead) and in the countryside (long Lead). Moreover, the snap hook is not too big and thus the thin Lead is perfectly suitable for small dogs.
   
   
   
3-way adjustable Leather Braided Lead NEW YORK

The robust workmanship, as well as the robust completion out of strong full leather guarantees a long lifetime of the Lead.

Rocky wearing his Lead NEW YORK:





Review: The Leather Lead NEW YORK is my favourite item by MORRIS. It looks very nice, is nice to hold and very robust. The colour combinations of this Lead are not as big as the colour combination of the Leather Lead COLOUR CRACK, but it is still completely sufficient and I very much like all of the colours. This Lead is also adjustbale which I again really like. A very trendy Lead.
