PetSafe Easy Walk Harness, No Pull Dog Harness, Medium, Raspberry | Patented Martingale Loop Gives Gradual Shoulder Pressure to Stop Pulling, Front-Chest Leash Clip Prevents Gagging

My dog is a 24 lb pug mix. She is sweet and wonderful but nobody wanted to walk her! She pulls so badly and constantly. She slips out of any harness we buy her. It's awful! Ugh! She's getting chubby from lack of exercise and missing out on lots of good family fun. This harness was my last hope. I am blown away! Even after I read all the five star reviews, I was skeptical. I bought this harness and got same-day shipping. I walked her that evening and I couldn't believe my eyes! The first time she pulled, the harness snugged up on her chest and gently turned her to face me; she stopped immediately. She turned and kept walking, but slower and more mindfully. I gave her some slack in the extendable leash and then locked it down--as soon as she pulled again she immediately stopped again. That's it. Pulling is over. My 13 year old is now walking her every day and loving it! She doesn't pull, she minds the "heel" commands. If she gets too excited and starts to pull, she stops as soon as the harness snugs around her. She's starting to walk better with just her regular collar and no harness at all. This harness appears to be breaking her pulling habit entirely!! Here is what you need to know with fitting. My dog is a mixed breed and is barrel-chested for her size. I really worried that I would never get the right fit. I have a hard time buying any harness for her. If I get it large enough for her chest, it's too large for her paws and neck and she can slip it easily. We've been through many. Not the case with this one! Fitting: Measure the largest part of your dog's chest. Buy the size that most narrowly matches that chest measurement. My dog's chest is 24 inches, which fits in the size range for the Medium which is for 20-28" chest. I took her PetsMart and tried the medium on her and it was HUGE! I couldn't make it tight enough to stay on her. So I ordered the Small/Medium which is for 19-25" chest--a more narrow range for her chest measurement. I was worried it would borderline on too tight. It isn't. I had to snug it up quite a bit to make it fit her. As for putting it on and taking it off: Don't unbuckle everything!!!! It's too confusing. You only need to work with the buckle for the chest strap, which buckles at the side of the chest so you can actually see it!! These harnesses are all 2-color. The strap that buckles around her chest is the second color--in my case silver. The main color, in my case black, is the whole rest of the harness. Only unbuckle the part that buckles around your dog's chest. (See the attached photos) Stand in front of your dog. Hold the harness so the leash loop is facing you and dangling at the bottom (the leash loop is the metal circle on which you will clip the leash to the harness--it will be on your dog's chest, not the top of the back as with other harnesses). Slip the harness over your dog's head and then just buckle the colored strap under the chest and you're all set. Take it off by unbuckling the chest strap and slipping it right over your dog's head. It's not a tight squeeze and is actually so much easier than trying to slip both paws into the leg holes while holding your dog down and buckling the strap with your third arm. This is the easiest time I've ever had getting her into a harness. You need to know that this harness will loosen itself after some time walking. Not it's strongest feature, but I couldn't even take off a star for this as it is such a miracle to be able to take our dog with us to parks, walks around the neighborhood, etc. There are 4 points on this harness that can be adjusted to fit your dog's individual shape and size. This is very much a strong point for me because my dog is not perfectly proportional. When you first take it out of the box, put it on your dog and check to see which points need adjustment. I can adjust it while it's on her, but it's easier if I take it off, adjust, and put it back on. I don't have to adjust it in the middle of walks. But you should check the adjustment every time you put it on your dog. Pros: My dog doesn't pull anymore (life altering)!!! Great price (Amazon charged half what pet stores charge--I did not get a discount for this review!); easy to put on/take off; quality construction; 4 points of adjust-ability for a good custom fit. Cons: none so far (need for periodic fit adjustment is not a big deal to me) I would recommend this to a friend. I actually recommended it to a total stranger--an older lady in the pet store (without her dog) who said she has a Min-Pin she can't walk or take anywhere because he pulls her so much. I was so enthusiastic she bought one right then and there. My dog was standing there being an angel, wearing her Easy Walk Harness. Please tell me if you found my review helpful. Please ask if you have questions. Thanks and good luck! I hope this solves your fur baby pulling problem. It certainly solved mine.

I DON'T EVER WRITE REVIEWS BUT...WOW! I have a reactive dog who also pulls on the leash with absolutely all of her might. Absolutely chokes herself and has dislocated my arm multiple times! We've tried EVERYTHING over the last year including professional training, which did help, but she was still really hurting me when she was set off by something and it made taking her for walks nearly impossible, and the biggest chore ever. This was a last hail mary, I've tried many other tools for pulling and none have worked, I didn't have high hopes at all. But lo and behold, I tried this out yesterday and she's a WHOLE NEW DOG! And not just the pulling. This design makes it pretty much impossible for her to pull in the first place. You can see when she's trying to pull, but it's so ineffective that I can keep the leash strapped around my wrist and not even feel the slightest tug! Not even 10 minutes into the first walk with this harness on, she gave up on even trying to pull and we had a WONDERFUL walk that was enjoyable for us both! This didn't just help with her pulling, it's helping with her reactivity too, for a couple of reasons. 1. I'm more calm, because I KNOW that I'm actually in control of my dog and I don't need to sweat it. 2. When she can't lunge to the end of the leash, she just doesn't even start barking for some reason. We're able to walk past houses with other dogs barking at us like it's nothing. This is monumental for her, as she is usually lunging barking and practically foaming at the mouth. I took her to the pet store with this harness on last night and you guys... Someone said 'Wow! Your dog is SO well behaved' Are you kidding me? If only they knew! This little harness is the only thing that's keeping her from choosing evil right now! This is NOT a replacement for training, but it makes training POSSIBLE. It's so hard to train when your dog is largely unsuccessful and you have nothing to praise. This opens up that opportunity and makes me(& other people) feel much safer, because it's obvious that I'm finally in control of my dog!

I'm not sure what rating to give this harness–it seems like it does its job well and it's well-made, but it ultimately did not work for my pomeranian, and I wanted to alert other pom owners that this harness may not be a good match for the breed because of their stature and coat. I took my pom on a couple of walks with the harness and it did help a lot with pulling–the second he tried to pull too far, it gently guided him back and prevented the pull. For dogs that can be properly fitted and aren't super low to the ground, I think the harness is awesome and will be a great tool for getting them to walk without pulling. Unfortunately, the issues I had are: 1) because my dog is so low to the ground, attempting to leave any slack on the leash at all when it was clasped to his chest (vs his back, on a traditional harness) made it too easy for him to step over the leash and get tangled in it. I had to stop constantly to reposition the leash, which was annoying to both of us. And when the leash wasn't getting tangled in his front legs, it was flopping around and hitting him in the face/chin area, causing him to try and bite at it. I think it's just because there's so little distance between his chin, chest, and feet/the ground that there's no room for the leash to hang freely without either being in his face or under his feet. And there needs to be at least a little slack when using the harness, or else every movement the dog makes results in him being jerked to the side. I don't want him pulling, but I also want him to be able to move without getting yanked around every two inches! It can also be dangerous–before I realized what he was doing, he tried to pull up some stairs (in my building, as I was getting ready to unclip him and get in the elevator), and he got simultaneously jerked back and tangled in the leash, which caused the leash to wrap around his body/legs and he tumbled back down the stairs, unable to free his legs or stop the fall. This all happened in a matter of about two seconds, so I wasn't able to intervene before it happened. Thankfully he was okay, but it was scary! I'm working on training him not to pull, but we're not there yet, and I don't like the idea that in a split second he can pull and end up in a dangerous situation like that. If he tried to pull up (or down) stairs in a regular harness, he'd just reach the end of the lead and not be able to go any further, vs being yanked back down/up. After all that, I thought maybe the harness just wasn't fitted properly the first time around (even though I'd spent a considerable amount of time adjusting it, but that brings me to issue 2): his small stature and extremely full coat made attempting to fit the harness basically impossible. I couldn't really follow the fitting instructions as-written, because he just has so much coat that simply laying the straps on his body and then tightening them to the appropriate length was impossible. I could either fit the harness on top of his coat, which meant it wasn't tight enough once it worked its way down past his fluff, or else nestle it down into the coat to get it closer to his skin–but then I couldn't see the harness at all to tell whether it was positioned properly. When the harness is fully clipped on, you literally can't even tell that he's wearing it, let alone tell if it's sitting where it's supposed to. I tried putting it on him loosely and then adjusting it while it was on his body, but adjusting the fiddly little straps while fighting against a massive amount of coat also wasn't a good solution. I tried different methods of fitting it for about an hour before deciding to just go back to his old back-clip harness and accept that it's just going to take a little longer to train him in loose leash walking than I'd hoped. :( For most dogs, I think this is a great solution, but f you have a pom (or another short and fluffy dog), be aware that it may be hard to fit and hard for your dog to walk in it.

It works like a charm! My dog is a 19 lb cocker spaniel and I bought a size S. It fits him well and stopped the pulling. It’s easy to get on and off by just using the belly clasp. It even stopped him from jumping on people who greeted him. The only con is now I get less of a workout on our walks. I would caution that it could slip off them if they stop and you try to pull your dog from the front. Great for enthusiastic walkers but not for the ones who dig their heels in.

I have a very excitable 70 lb boxer/catahoula mix dog that absolutely loves people. Add that to living in an upstairs apartment and you've got trouble. My boy can, and will, pull me along behind him whether I like it or not should he see anyone downstairs that he wants to go greet, and couldn't care less that he's pulling me down a flight of stairs in the process. Normally, that scenario led to one or more of the following happening: a) he got choked on a normal collar and leash, b) he managed to put all his weight behind a normal harness and get downstairs through brute strength, or c) I get pulled along behind him, suffering bumps, bruises, and sprains. This got to be very problematic for me as I always had to "screen" the conditions outside before taking a pup that badly needed to go. If there was someone outside, I couldn't trust my dog to remember his manners well enough to not try bolting downstairs with me being dragged behind, and there was always the possibility of it being clear when I stepped out, but someone coming out seconds later, and it was bye-bye Brindle. This harness, however, put a stop to all that. He can still pull, but the way this is designed creates the ability for you, the owner, to pull back far easier without risk of choking or hurting your dog. Now, when I take my dog out, if he sees a person he just has to say hello to, I can hit the button on his retractable leash (a definite recommend as the perfect partner to this harness,) and he gets stopped, forced into turning towards me so he remembers I'm there, and I can control him from then on. He might still be excitable, but the leash prevents him, so long as you're quick on the uptake and paying attention to your dog and what HE'S paying attention to, it prevents him from being able to bolt very far before being turned around and stopped on the spot before he gets too far and trouble ensues. Now, as I said before, a strong dog can, and a determined dog will, still pull to get to his or her destination, but this harness is well designed, strong, and I have very little trouble keeping my dog under control until the crisis is adverted, (i.e. cat leaves the vicinity or a person stops petting and goes inside.) I have also been able, with 100% success, to pull my pup away from people that just won't get out of the way on the steps (sitting there indefinitely) or who are so amused by my dog that they won't leave and keep egging on his behavior. This harness does help with that as well because, as stated above, it does still pull the dog to the side, forcing their attention back to you, and within a few seconds you can have your dog back to the task at hand rather than on the distractions. As a further plus in the harness' favor, whenever we run across a young child who wants to pet the 'big puppy,' this harness has kept my dog in control so well I never doubted the child would get knocked over by a jumping boxer mix. (And if any of you have ever had a boxer, you know they love jumping on every person they meet, even if jumping isn't required to get within face-licking range.) I've even been able to keep Brindle under control so well that I could give brief dog lessons to the kids, teaching them general demeanor cues to the ones scared my pup wanted to hurt them so they know how a dog looks when he's angry and when he's happy, and let the younger ones that run up and immediately try petting know that's a bad idea unless the owner says it's okay. So, to recap the pluses for why you should get this harness if you've got a big dog that forgets all decorum when people are around: 1) Keeps him/her from pulling you down a dangerous flight of stairs. Even been able to go down safely in rain, snow, and ice conditions. 2) Keeps dog under control and out of trouble (i.e. dog fights, running into street, ect.) 3) Protects other people and animals from your pet's exuberance 4) Well made, tough, hasn't ripped or had any damage at all in over a year's worth of walkings 5) Most importantly, you can correct your pet and pull him back to you without choking or hurting him with this harness. The bad, because you need to know: 1) The dog CAN still pull in this, and like all harnesses, they can put a lot more of their weight and strength behind a harness, though this one does cut down a bit due to it's design that causes their legs to cross and turn them. I have been able to hold him back when he was pulling as hard as he could, from a sitting position without being moved an inch. 2) If you have a retractable leash and something catches your pup's attention, when they bolt, even if you hit the button, you're still going to get jerked a couple steps, and if you don't have a good grip on the leash, there goes your dog. 3) In a situation like above, should they get going fast enough to jerk you, when you hit the button or pull back on the leash, rather than a gentle turn around, the dog will get jerked around, fly in the air a bit, and kind of do an involuntary back-flip. My pup's never been hurt by this, (at least nothing worse than his ego,) but it might be frightening for people not used to seeing this. I still highly recommend checking your dog out, however, when this happens just to be safe, especially if he vaulted on something other than soft grass, like gravel or pavement. 4) The front of the harness needs to be checked regularly. As I said, they can pull in this if they really want what they were going after, and it causes the front to loosen periodically, making it easy for the dog to step out of the harness without meaning to. For their safety, as well as all animals' and people's in the vicinity, you need to check and re-adjust every so often, so there's no accidental slip-outs and escapes. I really do recommend this harness for anyone with an excitable dog if they are prone to bolting, even just to greet people, no matter how great their manners might be otherwise. It will save you a lot of heartache and just aches in general to both of you. Oh, and for anyone who needs a bit of help figuring this thing out, snap the clasp that isn't the grey on the black version, or dark red on the red version. Slip that over the dog's head with the ring for attaching the leash facing you, and the different colored part facing down. Then just snap the remaining clasp across the dog's chest, behind their front legs. when you take it off, just undo the different colored part and slip the harness off, leaving the other clasp fastened. Makes it much easier, and the whole put-on/take-off only takes a couple seconds, which for a squirming dog can mean the difference between accident or no accident. Hope this helped.

Best $15 ever spent! Worked instantly on our chocolate lab mix, so now our walks are much more enjoyable. He tries to chew it off so I ensure to not let him & keep it out of reach when it is stored. THANK YOU for true reviews and an awesome product.

This harness did work a intended and definitely helped reduce pulling during walks. It was fairly easy to put on once adjusted properly, and I can see why many people like for training and everyday walking. That said, I personally prefer harnesses with a sturdier or more padded feel. This one feels lighter and less substantial compared to some other harnesses I’ve used in the past. It wasn’t necessarily poor quality, just more minimal than what I personally like for my dog. I think this would work well for people looking for a lighter weight no pull option, especially for dogs that don’t need heavy duty gear

This is a great product. The large fits my german shepherds. The medium/ large fits my puggle (she's 40 pounds) bigger chest. By far the best harness out there to stop the pulling. My puggle would try dragging me, and now she doesn't at all. It's truly amazing how well this works. I can walk all my dogs together without a problem, because I'm fully in control. When I had a regular harness it was like they were in competition, and I was being dragged. It was so bad I had to take each dog for a separate walk. With this harness they stay right at my side without pulling. Strongly recommend. I have bought one for each dog. Worth the price.

Sorry, no photos as my little fella's hair covers the straps, which are so minimal it's amazing. And then no video because I did not take my phone, I'll try to update with a video later. I reviewed a number of other harnesses and their reviews and this one had not the most and definitely not the least. But it had amazing reviews. And I have to say that THEY WERE RIGHT! This harness worked immediately. I'm taking just stepping outside of our door. My lovely, adorable little fella is only 6mths but he has started to pull, which isn't comfortable for either of us. Not to mention that he hates having to wear a harness. This harness is so easy to put on and so minimal I feel that he must be relieved with less 'stuff' on. We truly had a wonder walk. We were both relaxed and NO PULLING by either of us. (I was pulling him stating 'heel' each time he pulled. Not fun). I HIGHLY recommend this harness. My Little Fella: 10lbs Malshi 6.5 mths Size small - needed to reduce each strap a fair bit, which means we have room to grow! Apple Green & Gray SO HAPPY!

My pup is 16 and has used the Easy Walk harness since he was three months old. It is the ONLY harness he likes; otherwise, he just refuses to walk; and the 2.3 kg dog has torque when he stops short. It was initially recommended by a dog trainer for its quality and to encourage reluctant dogs to walk. I purchased the extra small for my long-hair chihuahua. Highly recommend.

M/L size is a perfect fit for our mixed breed dog. He’s nearly 3 years old and 27kg. The no pull effect is fantastic. This is our second buy, as first one had lots of rust with almost 2years of use. SGD15.31 was a fab price as well I couldn’t refuse and bought two pieces
