Why should dogs wear a harness?

Dog harnesses offer numerous advantages for dog owners. Designed especially for dogs that tend to pull on their leash, these harnesses effectively distribute pressure across the body, reducing strain on the neck and throat areas. This not only provides greater comfort but also ensures better control over your dog during walks.

Harnesses are particularly recommended for car journeys as they securely restrain your dog, preventing sudden movements during braking that could lead to injury. Unlike collars, harnesses offer a more secure hold, making it harder for dogs to escape, which is especially beneficial for anxious pets.

If you're considering a safer and more comfortable option for walking or travelling with your dog, investing in a quality harness is a wise choice.

Which harness is right for a dog that pulls?

When a dog pulls strongly on a leash while wearing a harness, it naturally increases pressure on the chest area. To mitigate this, opting for a well-padded harness is advisable as it ensures even distribution of pressure and provides a broader contact area for comfort. However, it's important to select a harness where the chest strap, which runs between the front legs, isn't overly wide to prevent movement restriction and potential chafing.

What should I consider when buying a dog harness?

When choosing a dog harness, several factors ensure enjoyable walks for both you and your dog. Here are our top eight criteria to consider:

  • Size: Measure your dog accurately and choose adjustable harnesses, especially for growing puppies.
  • Freedom of Movement: Ensure the harness allows for free movement of the front legs and shoulders without putting pressure on the trachea.
  • Material: Common options include nylon, leather, and mesh. Look for quick-release buckles for convenience.
  • Cleaning: Leather is easy to wipe clean, while fabric harnesses are often machine washable. Check cleaning instructions before purchase.
  • Comfort: Avoid chafing with properly fitting harnesses. Wider straps can distribute pressure but may limit movement for smaller breeds.
  • Safety: Opt for a harness with a secure chest fit to prevent slipping out, ensuring even pressure distribution to relieve the neck.
  • Leash Attachment: A rear attachment is standard, but consider a chest attachment for specific training needs.
  • Purpose: Decide if you need an everyday harness, a sporty option for jogging or a calming harness for anxious dogs.

Dog harness vs. dog collar

The debate between using a dog harness versus a collar often sparks differing opinions. A collar applies concentrated pressure to the dog's neck, potentially affecting the larynx and trachea. Conversely, a harness distributes force across the chest and back areas. The choice depends on factors such as your dog's tendency to pull on the leash or sensitivity to pressure. Whichever you opt for, ensure the product fits well to prevent chafing or long-term discomfort.
