Love this harness!! Even better than expected!!
I wish I'd found this harness sooner!! It instantly improved the quality of our 16-yr-old shih tzu's walks. It's also super effective for our 8-yr-old shih tzu/terrier mix. If you're on the fence about this item, you should go ahead & get it!! Here are some details I hope will assure you.Size: I can only speak to the SMALL; however, the range provided in the item description seems to be an accurate estimate that errs on the conservative side. I say this bc I've found it can be adjusted to fit a little smaller & larger than expected. I ordered a Small bc my guy has a big chest (19"), and it fits perfectly even though he's technically an XS in neck size (12.5") & weight (14#). That being said, I do have the front neck-area portion adjusted to smallest setting for him.My other dog is on the opposite side of the small spectrum, but this harness works great for her as well, & I just ordered her one of her own. She meets small measurements in neck (15") & weight (22#), but her chest (23") is bigger than the suggested max of 22" for the small. Still, the small fits her comfortably with a little room to spare (maybe 3/4"-1" left in adjustment) even in the chest area.Materials/construction: The plastic clips are lightweight but are easy to latch/unlatch & stay secure. The material is very breathable & mesh-like, so it won't be too hot when it gets warmer out. The handle on top lays flat, so it isn't obstructive or annoying but seems easy to grab if needed.Design: I can't overstate the brilliance & effectiveness of the harness' design. It isn't complicated or overbearing for the owner or the dog. It's simple, and it works. I've tried several other harnesses & slings over the years, but they all brought more frustration to either me (in getting them on & off) or my dogs (who both hate wearing anything other than a simple collar) that always seemed to outweigh their benefits. This harness even seems less bulky than others with the same design concept, but it's still very effective. Our very picky dogs don't even seem to notice they're wearing more than a regular collar.I love that this harness is secured around the sternum & under the chest, instead of through the front legs. It latches just far enough back on their chest/torso area that it doesn't seem to cause excessive matting/rubbing from the friction of their front legs. There's also minimal material on their chests, so I don't have to worry about the harness causing them to overheat.WHY I REALLY LOVE IT: I decided to try this harness bc I needed something for our older dog. He's nearly blind & has a pretty significant neurological deficit in his hind legs (has had back surgery & multiple myeloma), yet he still LOVES/lives for our nightly walks. Often he gets caught up in the momentum & will even do a hard turn down the middle of our street to prolong his walks & run down the big hill in our neighborhood an extra time. It does my heart good to see him enjoying himself so much. However, because he can't really see & can't fully control his hind legs, he tends to run all over the place & will inevitably run full speed into the curb unless I intervene. No matter how gently or incrementally I'd tug at his leash with a standard collar, I tended to throw him off balance in my efforts to guide him on his joy runs. I also tried a step-in harness & a sling, which have their benefits, but they restricted his movement & his overall enjoyment.This harness is the perfect solution for us. It disperses the pressure of my guiding tugs effectively, across his chest & upper torso instead of just his neck. He is able to keep his balance while I easily guide him away from obstacles. I can't express how much this harness has made walks better for both of us.It's also been great for our other dog, who benefits in an entirely different way. She's part terrier & can't help but try to chase &/or engage everything she sees. Before we tried this harness, she'd choke herself (usually lunging multiple times in a row at something as we pass) at some point on every walk. I wasn't surprised this harness successfully prevents choking when she pulls- that's what it's supposed to do. HOWEVER, amazingly, it does something else that I wasn't expecting at all!! Somehow, this harness seems to actually help me shift her focus away from the distraction & keep her moving forward. Before I tried the harness, she'd pull continually, turning sideways, backwards, etc. to maintain contact with the distractions. However, with the harness, I only have to tug once or twice AT MOST before she continues on with our walks undeterred. It's like she's a different dog! I'm truly amazed by how much better she responds to my guidance with this harness. I just love it! I hope you & your dogs will, too!

Good choice for breeds prone to IVDD! Heavy duty clips, great quality & price! Doxle approved!
I didn’t want to spend big bucks on yet another harness, but this has proved to be his best harness to date. I am so glad I bought this! This harness is truly an easy on, easy off harness without having your dog stand still so you can fit paws through the openings. The clips are plastic, which usually makes me a little nervous (I’ve had one break in the past), but these are heavy duty and well made. The side clip release is a decent size for easy access (no more fumbling around to find the release) and securing the harness is easy when you can hear it “snap” into place. (reference image posted)I purchased the harness for my dog who considers himself ‘the great brown hunter’ who loves to pull when he sets his sight on a bird or lizard. Let’s just say, he’s rather ‘focused’ when his mind is made up and the main reason I bought this harness. The selling point for me was a “no pull” harness would reduce the strain on my dog’s neck & back bones and not cause skin irritation or chafe when pulled. As one who has always owned dachshunds and now a dachshund beagle mix, this is especially important for breeds prone to IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease) which affects the spinal cord. Specifically, you want to keep any strain and pressure away from the neck area and have it distribute over the chest and shoulders, which this harness does. When Lucky Lou pulls forward, he now slows down due to the pressure being on his chest and not his neck area. This not only protects his spine from unnecessary pressure, but his neck from breathing and respiratory problems.The material is the same mesh-like material as my other harnesses that have proven lightweight, breathable and machine washable. Most importantly, it’s a comfortable fit for my dog’s chesty, long-body without restricting his movements or outdoor activities. The support handle is a great feature to have, but personally I haven’t had much cause to use it (except as a dog & rabies tag holder). Overall, this is a cute, well made, sturdy no-pull harness at a great price!

easy on and off
This a durable harness that is well made. The pink color is a bright pink. The size runs big. For my15 lb cockapoo the size small is still a little big when adjusted.It was a good buy for the price and quality.

EASY to put on
Well made, adjustable, washable, reflective, comfortable and above all EASY to put on the dog. One strap slips over the head (or you can unbuckle and fasten the strap around the neck) and the other fastens underneath the chest, NO NEED TO PUT THE DOGS PAWS THROUGH THE STRAP! I LOVE this harness and highly recommend.

Buyers beware!
Upon first receiving this harness it looked to be well made and sturdy. I was impressed that they included a short “connector” so that if it had been too small that could have been used for a better fit. The harness was easy to size. The x small was just right for my 15lb fur babe and I had high hopes. Unfortunately, I didn’t inspect the fit closely enough to realize that the harness sat quite high on my girls neck. I will say this… my dog is a puller. After just a few minutes outside she was coughing a bit and I immediately realized that due to her pulling the harness was putting way too much pressure on her trachea. Most of us with small dogs are aware of how dangerous this can be. By the time we got back inside and I removed the harness my girl was coughing and gagging horribly. This continued for a good 20-30 minutes. Thankfully she seems to be ok. Ultimately, this will not be an issue for you if your pup isn’t a puller like mine is. Just a warning… if you have a small dog who pulls you will want to avoid this harness (and a collapsed trachea). 😣 I will be returning this item.

GREAT.
Great sturdy dog harness for my cocker spaniel. It is comfortable for her. It was a pretty pick and very lightweight. Easy to apply and remove without any problems! Connects to her leash easily and makesdog walks much easier!

Fits perfectly!
I have a pomeranian who is an escape artist. I have purchased other harnesses and she could always wiggle out of them when she really wanted to see something. I am so glad that I found this harness. I got the XS and it fits her perfectly ! She has fine bones and is especially small at the shoulders. Now I can just put her head through the front part of the harness and then unlock the part that goes behind her front legs, lock that part and we are ready to go! The harness is secure, she likes it and I don't have to worry about her escaping from me. If you have an escape artist like I do, this harness is for you. I also love the handle on the back - it is so easy to pick her up into my arms when I need to lift her up.

SIZE ADVICE IS WRONG
Ordered a Small, and has the "S" tag:Neck Size advertised 14-17.5inches. Actual Size 17.5-21 inches.Chest Size advertised 17-22 inches. Actual Size 21.5 - 26 inches.Item arrived with a card saving "For Any Issues Including Sizing Problems Please Reach out to us at one of the Options Below...." We did that without success.

Great harness
This is a great little harness for my pup. I started with an extra small a few months ago and am ready to buy the next size up as he has grown. I wish I would have had this harness for my standard poodles when they were younger.

With the money!
Worth the money to buy. Works as advertised. Xtra small is still a little big on my 7lb dog but it works fine.

Great for deep-chested dog breeds.
I love this harness for my boxer. The angle of the straps allows you to tighten the back strap around the narrower waist. If they try to pull out of it, it can't get over the wide part of their chest.
