Item Description
*** IMPORTANT: This item is only available to active Seeing Eye graduates. ***
Stars and stripes? Back to nature? Let your Seeing Eye dog stand out with a custom-designed, genuine Seeing Eye leather harness! The winning graduate will specify the design of his/her choice. Possible designs include, but are not limited to, pine boughs and cones, maple leaves, oak leaves and acorns, patriotic (U.S.A or Canada), Western Sheridan floral, Celtic, steam-punk (e.g., gears), biker (skulls and flames), roses and thorns, and more. The tooled leather harness can be dyed with bright colors or left in its natural color.
Item Special Note
How it Works
After the design is selected, the artist will tool a design into the harness pieces. Tooling is done by drawing a design onto wet leather and then by means of small tools, sculpted into the leather. The tooled pieces will then be shipped to the Seeing Eye’s harness maker to put it together. Please allow up to two months for completion.
