Premium Reflective Dog Harness for Outdoor Adventures - 3M Safety Vest with Dual Leash Clips | Matching Leash & Collar Set | Ideal for Hiking, Running & Night Walks

I had been researching for almost a year prior to purchasing this product for an alternative to using a Gentle Leader. I have a large dog who has leash aggression, and a medium dog who is full-blown neurotic. Both dogs go haywire enough during walks to take you wakeboarding on concrete.I purchased a Large for my bigger dog (Lab mix, approximately 75 lbs) and a Medium for my medium dog (Lab-Chow mix, approximately 45 lbs and completely insane).Although the Gentle Leader did work effectively, I needed to find an alternative for the following reasons:1. Both my dogs pull so hard that the Gentle Leader leaves marks on their faces and causes dryness on their skin where the face harness is placed.2. My medium dog - despite how tight and secure I fastened the Gentle Leader - could still escape. It got to the point where I've nearly died trying to stop cars in the middle of the street from running her over as she darts towards other dogs. I needed to find an alternative for safety and to avoid further embarrassment from everyone who stares in horror each time this happens.When I received the harness, I was actually surprised at how much better it looks in-person than it does in the pictures. Here's a short breakdown of what I think about this harness:1. Adjustment/Fit - This was a bit of a challenge. It took me around 10 mins of trial and error to get the fit just right for each dog (trial and error). You have to spend time getting this just right. You only have to do it once. I suspect some people who say the harness does not fit probably don't know how to adjust it. It's a bit tricky but not by any means overly-difficult. My first impression was also that the harness looked too small (for both dogs). After getting the adjustment right, I found that they were sized correctly and this was by design.It's important to note that you have to adjust these in order that they fit firm and snug, especially with the strap that goes around the torso area. I made the mistake of putting too much slack the first time I used this and my medium-sized escape artist was able to make a clean getaway and go after the people walking their dogs across the street (so embarrassing). My dog was able to back-out of the harness on the first walk. After making the necessary adjustments, I have not had the same problem. My dog has had several neurotic encounters top the point that she's tried to backflip out of the harness and it didn't work. That harness stuck to her like a Facehugger from Xenomorph Prime.2. Build - My first impression was that it might not hold since my dogs both tug like they're pulling a Roman chariot into battle. I've been using the harness on both dogs for over 2 weeks now and they're very sturdy. The harness seems to handle the force without a problem.3. Safety - This harness is reflective all around (orange and white). I usually try to walk my dogs at night when there are less people walking their dogs. It's impossible to avoid every encounter but minimizing it helps me retain my sanity.4. No pull - Nope. My dogs still pull. The harness does make it easier to control them. It is suggested that you use the bottom hook for pullers but I've never tried it. I have to use the top hook because I walk my dogs in tandem with a leash coupler (I didn't use a coupler before buying this harness).5. Ease of Use - You only have to adjust the harness once. I'm not sure why others are complaining that theirs comes loose and needs constant readjustment. My dogs constantly tug in different directions during our daily walks (usually around 2 miles) and I haven't had any problems with my harness straps getting looser.I've also found that this harness is much easier to put on than a Gentle Leader. You just put it over your dog's head and fasten the belt that goes around the torso. Removal is also relatively quick.I've also noticed that my dogs are way more comfortable walking with these harnesses on than they were with the Gentle Leader. When we walked with the Gentle Leader, there was constant face-scratching and rubbing-face-into-grass. I don't get any of that with this harness. It also helps that my medium-sized dog no longer has to walk around looking like Hannibal Lecter. (I had the leash double-fastened into a Gentle Leader and a self-tightening nylon collar as a safety precaution. She would be able to remove one or the other at times, but was never able to wiggle out of both before I could swoop in and grab her.)I would recommend this harness but cannot guarantee that it will work for you. Each person and each dog will have different needs. The Chai harness just happened to fit mine. I'm glad I bought it. If you decide to get one for your dog, I hope it works just as well.Well waited a week on delivery for this and then turns up, more like a 10 pound harness. Stitching not very good and size is definitely not a xtra large, so their size is wrong their straps where maxed out on him and still to tight. It all looks a lot bigger on the pictures so be warmed. Sent back straight away.My12 month old labrador puppy has problem with her front legs. Decided to change her slip lead to the harness to take any pressure off her neck and whilst she is walking better as opposed to pulling it is very much her mind set that needs changing which I am working on. Never had a lead walking problem with any of my other labs so this is a new experience.This is a great harness, easy to adjust and it fits really well. The reflective straps are good for night walks. Mud wipes off easily from it and it's dries quickly. I've only given it 2 stars as one of the clips as broken after only 5 weeks. I've looked to see if there are contact details for the supplier to request another clip, as it would be easily fixed, but can't find any. Would order another but I'm worried it will break again.I really like this harness, however bought for my German Shepherd and its a little snug around his shoulders and back of his legs, I got the extra large as well. So wouldn't say its a great fit for the larger dog? Its also quite loose at the front of the leg and neck, just wish it was proportioned a little better. The front lead clip is great to deter pulling.. however if your dog walks infront, due to the looseness around the neck the harness pulls right to the side of the lead and sits very odd.I love the padding, reflective parts and the loom of it, just doesn't come together as well as I had hoped.Very smart and appears comfortable. Standard poodle pup 7 months have tried several he chews them or wriggles out. This one I just hold it up and. he comes to get in that speaks for itself.
