Harness Up DVD
with Mari Lintin Leedy, Harnessmaker

"Choosing the right style of harness for your horse is only the first step,"

says Mari Lintin Leedy of Stitch 'n Hitch in Crossville, Tennessee. "Adjusting the harness to fit properly will improve your horse's performance, and make life easier and safer for both you and your horse."

Whether you are new to horses, or you are an old hand at harnessing, you're sure to learn something as Mari guides you through harness selection and shows you how to adjust each piece-from bridle to crupper-until the harness fits just right.

To help you decide which harness is perfect for your horse or mule, Mari demonstrates a broad variety of styles, including the two-strap western britchen (belly backer), New England D-ring, and logging/plow harness, as well as harnesses for show, commercial driving, pulling, and multiple hitches. This video- taped in part at Kentucky Horse Park-covers both synthetic and leather materials, and shows you the best ways to clean and maintain them to maximize the life of your harness
