PetSafe Easy Walk Deluxe Dog Harness, No Pull Dog Harness – Perfect for Leash & Harness Training – Stops Pets from Pulling and Choking on Walks – Medium, Steel

There's no accounting for taste. It's the least of my concerns though. Walking Angus has been a challenge since he realized he was big enough to pull. Reactive and pully, that's Angus on a leash. After a year and half of that training struggle a rescue volunteer at a local shelter recommended a harness for walking. And not just any harness.This thing is the holy grail of harnesses. This thing removed all the fear reactions and pulling from our walks. So much so I look forward to taking him out for a few miles of neighborhooding.We walk 83rd Avenue toward the bank on the corner. There's three police cruisers, and five police officers and an SUV parked on the curb, in the turn lane on our side. Any other day, I'd avoid this scenario. Lights, radios, people gathered. Not now. The harness of epicness makes me as confident as Angus. We walk alongside the policing event. Two officers are waiting at the trunk of a cruiser. Not at all tense."That's a good looking dog you have.""Thank you. His name is Angus."He points to my Sweetwater T shirt advertising all things guitar, "Like the musician?""Yup!"He nods and we continue our walk. A young guy walks up to us, relaxed and not really interested in meeting Angus, but definitely interested in seeing him."Wow. He's part horse, huh?""We call him Stupid Pony for a reason. Angus is hilarious.""He's a cool dog."We walk on MLK, across from a large shopping center. Heavy traffic, horns, engines, people crossing blinky lighted cross walks. Voices, buzzes and the like. It used to be a curse to attempt. Now with his harness, he walks proud and confident. A speeding hover round carrying a highly energized woman comes barreling toward him exclaiming, "What a beautiful dog! Can I say hello?"Her smile is a big as her chair is heavy, and her voice is as rapid as the mph she's pulling with that thing. I ask Angus to sit. He does. I step between Angus and the oncoming woman on wheels. I see Angus' stress level going up via his eyebrows."Wait. He's never seen one of these hover rounds, slow down.""OH! Well I can walk." She jumps out of this motorized thing and moves quickly to Angus, hand out. She has the top of her hand showing for him to sniff. She thinks this is some sort of good idea."Wait. Slow down. Talk to me first, okay? I'm working his training.""Oh sure! I have a golden with some catahoula in him, he's catahoula isn't he?"Angus hasn't left his stress behind yet. And I'm not going to ask him to absorb hers. I invade her personal space forcing her to step back one step."Yup, he's a catty. He's a good boy. His name is Angus. You'll have to say hello and wait to see if he wants to visit." She seems agreeable enough, and I step aside a bit allowing Angus to decide what option he'd like. She extends her hand again, and he smells it. He looks past her to the hover round, then up to me."It's okay Bangus. You can say hello."He stands now, and takes two steps to her and accepts a head petting."Wow he's pretty."Angus agrees and wags his tail. She jumps back on her red hover round and thanks him for his time and says good bye to me. This couldn't have happened a month ago. And this couldn't have happened without this harness of epicness.We walk further. A bike comes from behind, the rider zooms past us. Angus doesn't notice or care. A jogger approaches from afar, on our sidewalk. Angus takes note, and decides she's not worth his effort."He's a pretty dog." She says as she passes. Angus looks over his shoulder to watch her progress away from us.A man walks past us now, pauses to compliment Angus and his leash etiquette. "What a great dog!"We walk. We walk happily, the leash draped in my hand relaxed. Angus is nose to ground now. We're in front of the retirement condo village. Roughly 453 yorkie terriers and shih tzu pee in this area. He is identifying species. His nose is on, his brain is off. And I'm far too relaxed.He lunges slightly forward and gobbles up some godawful looking mass of some thing that tickles my gag reflex. Too fast, too late, and he's already working it. There's discarded napkins nearby. My hope is the lawn crew carelessly left lunch pieces behind. The question is how old, and what comes next? There is no accounting for taste.Today is day two of Angus borfering randomly and soft serve ice creaming instead of pooping. His attitude, food and water intake are all intact. His digestion is simply letting him know he sucks.But this harness, this harness does not suck. Every dog person should have this harness. He is happier when wearing it. He loves putting it on. He loves his walks. And because of this, Angus is more socialized successfully on every single walk. I love this harness.I am not loving what is coming out of Angus' butt though.

My Louie here is almost 8 months. He's a little over 73 pounds and pulls quite a bit. I have been using the medium sized harness and it's worked wonders! I'm excited to try him on the Large size since he's bursting at the seams on the medium lol

This is a miracle harness! Once my dog feels the tension, she lets up. Unless, of course, something is super duper sniff worthy.Giving 4 stars because I wish there was a small/medium option. Medium has some looser areas but the small was too tight everywhere.

We have tried several other products to help keep our dog from pulling. This is by far the easiest and most effective device we’ve tried. It is easy to get on and off and changes my dogs behavior as soon as we put it on.

This is excellent. My Lab is 2 yrs old very strong and has got away from me in a lead he also pulled me down and I fell face first at vets on sidewalk. This harness was recommended at vets. I came home ordered that day and it really works. Something about them hooking at chest gives you control. My Lab is a angel in it.The price is right too!

These harnesses when fit correctly will definitely stop your dog from pulling! Easy to use and durable as well.

I have a 58 pound lab put mix who has kind of a wide chest but not a super deep belly. One of her major size issues tends to be her thick neck. It's basically as thick as her head so any collar has to be SUPER tight or she can wiggle right out of it. So a harness is necessary. But she's smart and she has figured how to get out of every harness I have put her in. Whether it's backing up on a tight leash and slipping out of it or pulling so tight that her leg can fit through the neck hole and then she can slip the rest of the way through. So even harnesses need to have certain aspects to keep her from being able to slip out.What I like about this harness: The "martingale" style leash attachment on the front is a great idea. The harder they pull, the tighter it gets across the chest and then their legs pinch together and it makes it tougher for them to pull. It tends to come around to one side or the other when they are pulling tight but it's better than just having a single static ring on the front of the harness. I also like that it's easy to unbuckle and slip on and off. I just unbuckle it at the buckle near her elbow and slip it off over her head. Then putting it on is as simple and slipping the loop over her head and buckling around her belly. And it's not a tight squeeze over the head which has been a problem with other harnesses. I also like the neoprene. Since she pulls a lot, I believe the neoprene has kept the harness from rubbing her raw. But it's also one of the biggest problems I have with the harness as a whole...What I dislike: the neoprene. It's great for comfort but it makes it so the harness is super easy to loosen up. After a couple of walks, I always have to retighten the straps across her chest. I usually have them on the tightest possible and it doesn't take much to have them open up a couple inches on either side which makes it much easier for her to slip her leg through when the leash is tight. I also dislike that there is only one ring to attach to. I wish there was one on the strap that goes up over the back so I could have the choice of where to tether her. It would also make for a nice place to loop through since the harness tends to twist a lot on the body when it is not on tight enough. It's like she's wearing a sweatshirt that's way too big and someone is pulling on her sleeve. That's how bad it can twist on her.What this harness desperately needs besides a second attachment point is another strap that connects the rings on the belly strap up and over the head. If it had that, then no matter how hard she pulls, the harness would not slip down her chest to the point that she could slip her leg though and then get out. Sure, it might be annoying for some people to have one extra buckle but you could set it up with clips and make it detachable for those who don't need it.I would love to have 100% confidence in this harness but since she has slipped out of it so many times, it's taken me figuring out just how to manage that more than worrying about her pulling, which it definitely helps with. That's why I gave it 3 stars...
