The Grossenbacher Vary Harness is one of the most adaptable, ergonomic, and secure dog harnesses available — ideal for both growing puppies and adult dogs alike. Designed to accommodate changing shapes, coat lengths, or breed-specific body types, the Vary harness offers extensive adjustability at the neck, girth, and sternum (length from prosternum to girth), making it a standout option for long-term fit and functionality.

Exclusive to Harbour City Dog Gear, our version of the Vary harness includes a front D-ring in addition to the standard rear and nape of neck connection points, making this a triple-connection training and walking harness. The front ring is appropriate for use during leash training — always best paired with a double-ended lead for balanced contact and optimal guidance. Please only use the front ring as part of a training plan under an experienced and qualified force-free trainer.

This harness features a slip on over-the-head design with a fully adjustable neck, girth and chest (plastic sliders on smaller sizes, lightweight metal sliders on larger ones). This additional split adjustability on the bottom strap helps keep the harness centered, even on deep-chested dogs, helping to prevent the middle strap from flipping to one side.

Backorders are available in our standard colour range. Grossenbacher backorders usually ship to you in apx 6-7 weeks, pending product availability and workload/holiday season in Switzerland. Online backorders (as opposed to Custom Orders) are treated like normal orders and are exchangeable, and cannot be cancelled once placed, and are not refundable (except as required under Australian Consumer Law). Please refer to our FAQs for detailed information about backorders.

Please contact us by email or the Contact Us Online Form if you would like to order sizes that are not in the drop down menu (4XS, XXL).

CUSTOM ORDERS

Grossenbacher products come in a large range of custom colour combinations. The ProGuide harness does have many (many!) other colour options available – we are happy to do special orders for colours we don’t stock, however custom orders are not returnable or exchangeable (except as required under Australian Consumer Law).

If you would like to place a Custom Order for a Vary harness, please select the appropriate size and then choose "Vary Custom Order" in the colour drop down, then add to your cart. YOU MUST WRITE THE COLOUR/S YOU ARE REQUESTING (base, edge, strap) IN THE ORDER NOTES BOX.

(Colours are indicative and may differ slightly to the colours on your screen.)

Please ensure you know what size will fit your dog so you are not disappointed when a custom order doesn't fit and can't be exchanged. We strongly suggest coming into the studio to try them on, or at least book a Zoom fitting session, before you order.

For Vary Custom Orders, please advise us if you do not want a front d-ring on your harness. (Otherwise it will come with one included.)

Custom Orders are paid for in advance and are not refundable or cancellable. Full payment is made before a custom item is ordered in for you.

Custom Orders usually take 6-7 weeks, but may take up to 12 weeks, to deliver to you depending on where we are in the order cycle and the workload/holiday season in Switzerland. All Grossenbacher harnesses are hand-made to order, hence the long wait time.

NB. We emphasise: Custom Orders cannot be exchanged or returned. When you place and pay for an order for a custom item you are agreeing that the item cannot be changed/returned/exchanged (except as required under Australian Consumer Law).

Grossenbacher uses high-quality, sturdy buckles, which can withstand a tearing force of 90 to 130 kilograms.

Three leash attachment points:
Rear ring (everyday use — ideal pressure distribution)
Front chest ring (temporary use for training with a double-ended lead, as part of a training plan)
A third option close to the nape of the neck, however we don't recommend using this ring unless instructed by your trainer.

Super-adjustable design grows with your dog or adjusts to seasonal coat changes

Adjustable at the neck (2 points), girth (2 points), and chest length (2 split points underneath)

Helps accommodate deep-chested dogs thanks to balanced sternum-to-girth strap design

Full freedom of movement — shoulder, elbow, and spine remain unrestricted

Non-chafing, pressure-free construction using lightweight, breathable fabric

Ergonomic fit, suitable for everyday wear and long training sessions

Slides over the head for easy on/off

Handmade in Europe with Swiss-quality standards

Crafted for strength, comfort, and adaptability:

Triple-laminated performance fabric – pressure-free and durable

Buckles rated for high-load resistance

Plastic or metal sliders depending on size

Washing Instructions:

Machine washable at 30°C (we recommend hand washing whenever possible, for longevity)

Do not tumble dry — air dry flat

Ensure harness is adjusted evenly before first use for optimal fit

As for any harness, please check regularly for signs of wear and adjust/discontinue use accordingly

We recommend visiting our fitting studio for best sizing if at all possible. If ordering online, please refer to the size chart in the gallery and this size tab. Don't simply get a size small because that's what size usually fits your dog in other gear.

The size chart is in the picture gallery or you can access it here. The name of the size is under the "Grosse" column; the size range that is covered is indicated under the "verstellbar bis" column ... for example, the size 'S' covers the sizes S down to XXS ...
Grossenbacher harnesses are sized by breed and weight, not by girth measurement (the girth on Grossenbacher harnesses has a very generous adjustability range). Each Vary size covers a three-size range when compared to the Grossenbacher Fun Run harness.

The best way to get the correct size for your dog is to come into the fitting studio and try them on. If you order online you may need to exchange if the first size you purchase isn't quite right.
