Ok they have special harness for there body's that don't pull on the neck and cut air like a regular walking dog harness from petsmart would. They center around the chest and net around to the back to be secure and confortble for the dog. this way they have air and won't break free from the sled. They have snow boots that help protect their feet from the snow and ice because ice will pack in between the dogs paw pads spiking them like needle's or causeing them irratation. paw boots need to be changed about every few days if your running the dogs because the boots where thin and moldy after a while.
