Meet the boys who
started everything
Three dogs. Three journeys. One common thread — every harness I've ever made started with them.
Flyn
Autism Assistance Dog · RetiredFlyn is the reason this business exists. When he came into our lives he needed an assistance dog harness — but nothing on the market fitted properly or worked the way we needed it to. So I made one.
He went on to become a fully trained autism assistance dog, supporting my son through years of daily life. What I didn't know when I made that first harness was that it would become the foundation of everything that came after.
At 8, Flyn is now an old boy. He was born with hip dysplasia — discovered later in life — and has retired from active AD work. He remains the heart of this pack, big brother to the other two, and the reason every harness I make is built with real working dogs in mind.
Ollie
Autism Assistance Dog · ActiveOllie is my daughter's autism assistance dog — a working cocker with the energy to match and the heart to use it well. He and my daughter have their own documented journey together, built over years of training and real-life work.
Alomst every harness Ollie has worn has been made here. He's been modelling them since he was small enough to fit in a puppy size, and he's never looked anything less than completely unimpressed about having his photo taken.
Honour
Assistance Dog · In TrainingHonour arrived in 2020 — deposit paid in March, right before the world locked down. He was originally lined up to take over from Flyn as my son's autism AD, but lockdown meant he missed the critical socialisation window in his first six months. He became a nervous dog in public, and the original plan had to change.
Now he's older, calmer, and getting his second chance — this time training as my own assistance dog to support me when I'm out in my wheelchair and at home when my pain is bad and I can't reach things. He's still a work in progress. So is this whole thing.
I'm documenting every step of his training journey on Instagram — the good sessions, the setbacks, and the small wins. Come follow along.
Three dogs.
One family.
Between them, Flyn, Ollie and Honour have been in more harnesses than I can count — all made here, all fitted to their individual needs, all worn in real working life. That's what makes the difference.

I'm building a business from scratch and training an assistance dog at the same time — in public, with no filter. Every step documented on Instagram. The boring bits, the hard bits, and the bits that actually work.
