DESCRIPTION A horse harness is a type of horse tack that allows a horse or other equine to pull various horse-drawn vehicles such as a carriage, wagon or sleigh. Harnesses may also be used to hitch animals to other loads such as a plow or canal boat.There are two main categories of horse harness, \"breaststrap\" or \"breastcollar\" design and the collar and hames design. For light work, such as horse show competition where light carts are used, a harness needs only a breastcollar. It can only be used for lighter hauling, since it places the weight of the load on the sternum of the horse and the nearby windpipe. This is not the heaviest skeletal area; also heavy loads can constrict the windpipe and reduce a horse\'s air supply.Learn the craft of proper harness construction and repair with these two well illustrated vintage books on a Gift Quality DVD.
