Dog vest harness patterns

This is a simple pattern to make a vest for dogs that also has the function of harness. This pattern is inspired by the design of the image.

If we want to use it as a dog harness too we have to sew two rings in the middle of the back strip to attach the leash.

This vest is made with one piece pattern. For a better finish sew one strip along all the vest's edge. You can use a different fabric or color to make it more funny.

Below, you will see a preview of the vest pattern. The pattern is the right side on gray.

Remember to cut the pattern with the fabric folded by the half, so when unfold the fabric will get the complete piece. The marked boxes at the end of the strips are for Velcro tape.


Strips cross around chest and neck to adjust perfectly to the dog's body. If you want to add a lining to the vest  have to cut 2 complete pieces: one for the outer fabric and second for the lining. Use the same fabric in summer days or a warm fur lining for winter days as shown in photo below.

We have a dashhound and have tried other harnesses but, they move alot and seem uncomfortable.Our dashy has Degenerative Disc Disease and has been operated on. We are hoping this will be a better chioce of harness for him. I'll let you know how it turns out.

  10. I just want to say THANK YOU for the pattern. I do not sew and made 3 of these pretty quick and easy. Got my d-rings off an old pocketbook. I love them and my little Dixie does to takes the strain off her neck when we go out. I also made one for my daughters dog which has heart problems and often swells from fluid making a harness impossible to wear cause if she has it on when she takes on fluid weight then you have to cut it off. This will be really simple to get on her and off. Thanks again for the free pattern.

  15. TNAK YOU!

    So simple, and I get SO many compliments. Very difficult to find simple harness vests, most are complicated, bulky, or otherwise impractical. Even my Mom's fussy Pom will wear this vest.

    *I substituted snaps for the velcro, and added a "handle," making it easier to get a grip on my chihuahua...

    THANK you again!

  16. Why are two rings required?

    1. two rings better than one...I guess for more resistance and to avoid pulls with the leash

  18. Thank you so much & for making pattern free! I just whipped up one for my Chihuahua X out of an old pair of cargo pants of mine. Used studs from the pants rather than velcro to fasten & fits & looks great!
