ThinkPet Halloween's Day No Pull Harness Breathable Sport Harness with Handle-Dog Harnesses Reflective Adjustable for Medium Large Dogs,Back/Front Clip for Easy Control S Orange

The media could not be loaded.  I scoured Amazon and read a lot of reviews before choosing to buy this harness for my black lab pup who, at the time, was about 6 months old. (She's now 8 months at the time of recording the video.)This harness has a good width and ample padding so it doesn't dig into my dog's body. I just slide it over her head, click the buckle in on each side, and she's ready to go! (Just remember, the ThinkPet logo goes on top. My husband once tried putting it on the dog upside-down and it was ridiculous. But wait, it gets better...)Note that there's a red clip on each buckle so you can LOCK them closed. The buckles are high-quality and I don't know why they'd need locking mechanisms, but they're there. (I think they might be for strapping your dog into a car seat--I don't have a car seat and I'd never strap my dog inside one, so I just ignore the sliding red locks.) HOWEVER, the red locks CAN accidentally slide into the locked position, and if you have a squirrelly hyper pup (like mine was at first), you might panic and think your fur baby is trapped inside the harness FOREVER. (I once walked into the kitchen and found my husband with the harness on the dog proper-side up, but he had a steak knife and was ready to RESCUE THE DOG FROM THE HARNESS. Seriously.)I pounced and wailed something like, "Stop! I just bought that!"I took away the knife and showed him that the buckles have red sliding locks that, with a gentle nudge, can allow a human to unlock and open the buckles with ease.In addition to the fact that this harness looks quite comfortable compared to others, I liked the fact that it has a hook for a leash on the chest as well as the back. My pup was dragging me along as she choked herself to death when walking with just a collar. A harness with a chest-hook would supposedly get my dog to turn around and stop dragging me. (This DID NOT work for my dog! When the leash was attached to the front hook, she whirled around like a Tasmanian devil and played tug-of-war with the leash, dragging me down a mountain. I reattached the leash to the BACK hook and had much better results: she faced forward while dragging me along, but the important thing is that she wasn't going to choke and hurt herself.)END GAME: This harness is fantastic if you put it on your dog correctly and understand how to use buckles! Puppies and dogs need to be trained to walk on a leash, and I'm a firm believer in using a harness to accomplish this. It's not going to allow a pet to choke and possibly damage their windpipe when they pull. (And I've never seen a puppy that didn't excitedly try to drag their human along on an adventure!)My lab has ran, rolled around in, and swam in this harness. It has survived many adventures with dirt and mud, and even though I've never washed it, it's remained mysteriously clean and odor-free.Finally, the reflective strips that go around the trim of the harness work great to keep my dog safe when walking in the dark. The gleam of light that comes off of the harness has helped me locate my girl when she's running wild during the night.If you're looking for a high-quality harness that's comfortable, easy-to-use, looks great, and can handle the adventures of a rough and tumble dog (or a demure fluff ball), this is a great choice! If my lab outgrows this one, I'm not going to buy anything other than the next size up in this exact same style of a ThinkPet harness.

MY DOG AND SIZING:I got my puppy suddenly and just bought him a cheap harness at first until I had time to research them and get him a better one. I ended up settling on this as the better one. He is a beagle mix, about 12-14 weeks old, and under 20 lbs. The small fits him well on a tight setting with plenty of room to grow! He might need the medium by the time he is an adult, but the small might work for that as well. It seems a bit too long for him, but I think he will grow into it nicely.COLOR AND SAFETY:I was a little bummed that the orange harness in the picture looks like a beautiful rusty fall color but in reality it is more of a neon/construction/safety cone orange. Though neon is better for visibility so I guess that's good. Speaking of visibility, the reflective piping on this really works well! I included two pictures I took of him at night in a dark room with the flash on, so I don't think anyone will have a hard time seeing him in their headlights at night.COMFORT AND DURABILITY:The fabric is very stiff and thick, which seems to really aid in the durability department. I've also already had to use the handle several times to pick him up suddenly when he is eating something off the sidewalk that he shouldn't be, like for example, a full cigarette >.< I wouldn't recommend picking them up by the handle unless it is an emergency, but it does help when puppies are getting into something dangerous or if you have a big dog that is jumping or lunging. However, the super thick fabric isn't very breathable and doesn't seem super comfortable. He hasn't fought it or tried to get it off, even when sleeping, so I guess it doesn't bother him too much. Though, he can't scratch himself through it. The fabric is so thick and well distributed that if I need to give him a little tug, hold him back, or direct him on the leash, I don't feel like I'm hurting him but with the old harness that was questionable.One of the reasons I bought this is because it is padded under his arm pits while most other harnesses are just a thin strap that digs in and chafes if they are still leash training. Since he is a scent dog, leash training is going to take a while and I need to keep him on a short, high leash so he doesn't try to clothesline himself. I feel like he is much safer and more comfortable in a harness like this. It also straps in easily to car seats and I feel like the thick padded vest will help distribute the shock should we get into a car accident and should keep his bones and joints safer than a thin harness or flat neck collar.There are two very heavy duty metal rings, 1 on the back and 1 on the chest, and I feel confident that my leash would give out before the rings do. The buckles also seem heavy duty (plastic, not metal) and they are a bit bulky, which seems uncomfortable, but again he doesn't seem to mind them.EASE OF USE:You do have to go over their face and head with this one, which he doesn't mind but some dogs might. It is also a HUGE PAIN to adjust the size of the straps, especially since it kind of needs to be adjusted with him in it and he is a squirmy hyper puppy. It took fiddling with it a couple times over 2 days before it fit him well, but it was worth it because unlike other harnesses, his wiggling and movement doesn't loosen the straps so I know he won't be able to wiggle his way out of it.The old harness had straps that could hang down after adjusting which he would chew on but with these the straps don't dangle, even though it is practically on the tightest setting.SHOULD YOU BUY IT?:I can't speak directly for large dogs who might jump, lunge, or pull but if the quality and durability is the same throughout the sizes, I think this is one of the best harnesses you could buy for under $65. I had a Boxer/Pit/German Sheppard mix before and I think this would do nicely for a dog like that as well. I also really like the handle but wish it was oriented running the length of the spine and not horizontally. If you're worried about nighttime safety, I would also really recommend this!If you are looking for something very comfortable for a lazy lapdog or a toy breed who doesn't need much leash training, then this harness is probably way overkill. I would look for something much lighter, more breathable, and easy to get on and off. But if you have a big dog, a hyper puppy, are hiking or doing other outdoor activities a lot, need help with leash training, need to pull them by the handle, etc. then this is the best affordable harness I've come by!

I like this product... I wish it fit my mini doxie better. The part that goes from under his chin down to his belly gaps/bulges. I am assuming this is because doxies are weirdly shaped. I am keeping it anyway, because the quality is good and I dont feel like buying and returning a bunch of harnesses looking for one that fits a mini doxie perfectly. Might see if I can find a tailor who could “take it in”. Would need a heavy duty sewing machine because the strap is thick.

My Laberdoodle is a puller - even with a neck collar. I purchased an easy to put-on harness to get her to stop, and it worked. The front D-ring let's the dog know she's hooked to a leash, and if she pulls it does so in a way that she doesn't like (not a pain thing). She has stopped pulling.On occasion I switch the leash to the D-ring on the top of the harness (on the dog's back). Allows her to walk without the intrusion of the front D-ring. She also has a bad habit of rearing up and walking like a "zombie" when she meets new people. I've raised plenty of dogs - never had a dog as tough or stubborn as this one. Anyway, the harness comes with a handle on the top as well, so I can grab that when needed to prevent the zombie Lab from being too friendly.It's a good-looking sturdy harness, with reflective tape which does work at night. I did get her purple, so she looks good while walking through the neighborhood. I would recommend and get another if I ever had to.

I got the large for my 5 month old Golden Retriever. I tightened everything as tight as it could go and it fits perfect. This way, I can adjust it as he grows instead of buying a new one. He can't pull when I use the front clip. In it's so much better. This is a must buy if you have a puppy that pulls. Also, I think how it reflects in the dark so I can see him at night.

I have a large, strong dog of mixed Guard breeds, this harness fits her well as she has a deep chest for her size. The hoop in the front is a life saver! If she's excitable and pulling a lot clipping the lead to the chest hoop redistributes all her strength and she's so easy to control. The hoop on the back is great for strapping her into the car and it must be comfortable as she'll happily lay down in the harness and go to sleep.Easily adjustable, clips lock in place if you need to, both hoops are sturdy and we've had no incidents of wiggling free and no breakages, the reflective strips are brilliant on winter walks.This is the THIRD time we've bought this harness due to some naughty chewing incidents so can confirm that the red, orange and purple colours are all fab - I would definitely recommend buying it (and storing it out of reach!)

The media could not be loaded.  I like this harness however the neck part doesn't do up tight enough for my dachshund so cannot use the front clip feature as she can pull her leg out despite it being at its max tightness. It's a shame as it's a fantastic harness and sturdy and I love the lock features. It's a bit of a pain having to adjust the neck straps to get it over her head each time, especially with a dog who hates things going over her head. However, I've had this harness just 2 weeks and it instantly stopped her constant pulling and now walks slack leaded!

I had my doubts over the “no pull” claims of this harness. I’ve tried a couple of different no pull harnesses on our excitable and very energetic sprollie over the last 18 months but after reading the other reviews I thought we would try one last time. Oh my word, worth every penny. He’s gone from walking me, yanking my arm off along the way to my 7 year old being able to safely hold his lead in a week. I’m no longer jealous of those well behaved dogs walking so nicely alongside their people.

ThinkPet No Pull Breathable Sport Dog Harness - Reflective Padded Oxford Nylon Safety AdjustableHaving purchased several harnesses which proved to be uncomfortable for our hound and ineffective to control him, and also tested two more that were not really that successful, we found this one. This works !I should add that not every design of harness suits every shape of dog whatever the makers say. What suits a terrier in it's design might not suit a Great Dane and vice versa (assuming you bought a small for the terrier and an XL for the Dane). Most harnesses are made in a variety of sizes so don't assume that because they have a big one it will suit a big dog even though it will fit. It might be suitable but then the same design might not suit a little dog. Whilst they all have four legs they have different body proportions and that needs to be taken into account.Our hound is very deep chested and a perpetual "hunter"..it's what he has done for 5,000 years so used in conjunction with a Flexi Pro his trips out are part walk and part hunt (although his is not allowed to "catch" anything.)This harness gives him total support around the shoulders and total control at the other end of the lead however long it is.We have so far bought four of these harnesses and as I say they work really well for us, there are attractive colours available with reflective binding and a strong handle on top.Great !

Ich bin mit diesen Hundegeschirr vollstens zufrieden.Hatte noch nie so ein gutes .Es zwickt nichts.Mein Labby fühlt sich wohl darin.Habe das XXL genommen weil er Brustumfang 78cm hat.Man kann es auch super kleiner machen was ich im Endefekt auch machen musste.War aber kein Problem.Mein Labby ist auch ein starker Zieher jedoch mit diesem Geschirr läuft er super.Es hat ja zwei Ösen man kann oben die Leine befestigen und vorne.Ich benutze eine Leine die an jedem Ende ein Karabiner hat. Der eine kommt oben am Geschirr hin der andere vorne.Wenn er zieht wird der vordere kurz angezogen und gut ist.Bin begeistert.Lg
