seeh2o Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Does anyone know if Houndstown is still around? The website is fine and the Etsy shop isn't selling anything. They had such a great harness, I was going to send a link to a friend, but they are no where to be found.

Houndtime Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I have seen on other forums, people asking the same question. One of the Virginia (?) adoption groups is selling his products.

macoduck Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 (edited) Friends says appears to disappeared due to a possible divorce and it was his wife who did the sewing. Although Houndstown has a FB page, it is out of date. His Etsy shop is closed. GIG's list of vendors has him with James River Greyhounds in VA. There are no collar or harness listings in the JRG shop. I don't know who makes these for Hound-Safe, but she has good stuff, vends at GIG, and is sometimes here on Greytalk. https://www.hound-safe.com/collections/jackets-harnesses Editing to add the Hound-Safe harness are made by Houndstown but are very very short supply and there may not be a re-stock available. Tell your friend that she needs to order soon.

Dad2Paisley Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 We talked with James River Greyhounds at GIG and they said Houndstown not doing martingale collars anymore.. That's why they had barely any there to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she sees a squirrel all bets are off of she's wearing a martingale or a regular harness, but she can't slip out of the safety banner harness.

I have several 2Hounds harnesses, but my girl can slip them. My friend's dog has an even higher prey drive, so I wanted to recommend the Houndstown Safety Banner Harness to her.
