2 Hounds Design Freedom No Pull Dog Harness, Adjustable Harness and Leash Set, Easy Walking & Comfortable Control, Fits Small, Medium & Large Dogs, Solid Colors, Made in USA, 5/8" XS, Teal

The Freedom No Pull Harness is the best of the available harness devices for dogs. I bought one for my 14 year old Lab/pointer cross, when we discovered he has some small cervical compression fractures, and also strained his neck while rough-housing with the "Big Guy" (see below, 90 pound Lab.) This has been a dream come true for him in his old age, taking all of the strain and pull of a leash on his poor old neck, and placing it squarely on his chest and torso where he is clearly more comfortable with it. The vet recommended this, and it's worked like a charm for increased comfort. I bought a large for my new-to-me 90 pound adult chocolate Lab. It fit perfectly (pay attention to the sizing charts- they're very accurate,) and the difference was noticeable the first time out. I had increased control immediately. Being the dog that he is, however, he has "adjusted" to the harness, and now pulls as much as always. Clearly more training is needed, and this is on me. The biggest advantages to this particular harness are the increased control over the dog (when he starts to go insane, forgets I'm on the other end of the leash and could be harmed by his behavior/action, and attempts to lunge into traffic, or at any man on a bicycle, or the neighbor's Boxer dog.) I have a little bit of an edge with this harness. I recommend the training package, with the funny leash that hooks to the chest and the back- this seems to make a difference giving increased control when used as indicated in the picture. Also, I don't wince at the sound of him compressing his own trachea, or windpipe, when he is straining against the leash on a regular collar. I would comfort myself with the idea that it was a self limiting problem in that if he cut off his own air supply entirely he would at least stop pulling ;) But with the harness I also don't worry about him injuring his trachea or cervical soft tissue, and costing me yet more at the vet, and himself the misery of injury. The harness is a winner on this count- more comfortable for him, and anatomically appropriate and safe. The other big selling point was my Amazon purchase came with one free repair, for the cost of postage. This seemed like a red flag at first (why would I need repair service?) But now that we're on our THIRD of these harnesses, I understand- If I put this harness on my dog more than 15 in advance of our walk, and leave him unsupervised, he chews clean through it rendering it useless. When I bought these harnesses direct from the inventor's website, they charge for the repair warranty unless you buy a sort of "extended" warranty at the time of initial purchase. When I buy from Amazon (exact same product) the seller offers to repair once at no cost to me, save postage. This is a HUGE bonus, and I recommend buying from Amazon for this reason. I bought my original 2 harnesses direct from Freedomnopullharness.com, and threw the first one out after he chewed through it. I have the second one he chewed through, and will be asking about the cost to repair the severed piece. Basically, I found this the best of all harnesses (and I've bought a bunch of different kinds in my quest for the ideal,) and my last ditch effort before using the Gentle Leader head harness (Which I may still try...)

I am transitioning from balanced training to positive reinforcement training for my recently rescued year and a half old 90lb German Shepard mix. I was previously using a slip lead because I cannot stand harnesses and didn’t feel I could wak him safely in one. I tried the Halti no pull harness and it sucked. It basically attaches to the dogs collar in the front and has no martingale loop in the back. I started working with a professional trainer who highly recommended the freedom harness and still had my doubts. I figured even with normal use my dog was too big for a plain nylon harness and it would wear out quickly. When I unboxed it, I could tell it was clearly high quality and well made. I didn’t have any inclination it might break on me. I put it on my dog and realized I should probably size up from a L to an XL. The L fit but was totally maxed out and he is still growing and filling out. The XL fits perfectly and had more room to adjust but not too much. The velvet is also a nice upgrade due to the fact that the stomach strap sits behind the elbows. We went on our first test outing with the double leash and it was great! My dog already has some leash training and doesn’t pull too bad unless he sees a trigger like another dog and gets too excited. He does get a little distracted and, unlike other harnesses, this leash/ harness combo allows me to direct him subtly, maintaining positive methods and not having to use corrections but also teaching him what leash pressure means and redirect him accordingly. He responded to the tightening of the martingale loop when he did start to pull and our previous training helped him redirect right back to me when that did happen. I really am a fan of the leash as much as I am of the harness. It is a simple idea really, that the handle is free floating and adjusts to the angle you are holding it at. This is a huge upgrade from the matching halti lead I was using with the halti harness. That one didn’t have a handle at all. You could probably get any double ended leash and attach a traffic handle but this one just moves so easily that it seems more efficient this way. It is just the right length for me and my tall dog. I prefer about a four foot length and I feel that when this is bucked to the front and back of the harness it comes out to about that. My dogs big head fits in between the two straps and I can easily switch sides without the leash becoming tangled. I am definitely now pro- harness and can easily manage my 90 lb reactive teenage dog as a 130 lb 5’3 woman and still maintain the positive methods. I love that they have so many different colors because I am kindof a leash snob and love that the tan matches my dog. I kindof wish they made a leather or biothane version for added boujee- ness and use in wet environments. My dog is accustomed to being leashed and doesn’t attempt to chew. Although this set is sturdy I obviously would not say this is at all chew proof because it is just nylon so if you have a dog that chews you will want to use supervision.

Great, compact harness. Not bulky but has strength and durability. Also because there is minimum material it doesn’t get wet or dirty and if it does it dries quickly. Doesn’t impede movement and is very light weight.

Excelente material, resistente, muy cómodo para mi perro 🐶

dies ist bereits das 2. Geschirr das wir für unsere Hiunde angeschafft haben und sind voll zufrieden. Das Anlegen ist kein so gefummel wie bei voelen anderen.

My dog was an extreme puller. Like I thought I was going to have wrist injuries. Since he is a hound mix, he has the belly size of a lab but a much smaller neck circumference, which made it difficult to find harness that fit him properly and stayed more or less put when he got exctied and pulled. This harness fits him very well. I like the front ring option because it does reduce pulling and the ring sits high enough on the fit that it doesn't cause the leash to get caught up in his front legs too much. I like the martingale ring in the back as well for times when he's not pulling so much because it's very easy for him not to get tangled, even as he runs from side to side. The harness is very easy to clean and is the first one I've found that fits well and doesn't cause my dog's delicate hound belly skin to get super red and chaffy. I did not find the two- carabiner leash to be as helpful as I thought it would be for reducing pulling. It seemed like the carabiner on the back ring was doing more work when he pulled, so I prefer to use a regular and trustworthy strong leash with the just the front ring.

My doggo likes to pull so much so that I dislike walking him. Was recommended this 2 hound no pull harness and leash by an animal volunteer person and never look back since. Although my doggo still pulls but is very manageable. Thanks for the great product. Highly recommend.
