5 Reasons Big-Dog Owners Are Switching to a Personalized Harness
If your dog is strong enough to pull you down the street, the harness you walk them in matters. Here are five reasons owners of big dogs are moving to a padded harness with their dog's name on it.
1Pressure goes to the padded chest, not the throat.
A leash on a collar puts every lunge on the neck. This harness spreads the pull across a wide, padded chest strap instead. Clip the leash to the built-in front D-ring and a lunge turns your dog back toward you rather than forward.
So when a big dog leans into the leash, the force lands on the chest, the part of the body built to carry it. The strap is wide and padded, so nothing narrow digs in under the legs.
2A top handle for the moments you need them close.
At a busy crossing, next to another dog, or when the mail truck rolls by, you can take hold of the handle on top and keep your dog right beside you.
No reeling in the leash hand over hand, and no leash wrapped around your wrist. It's the quickest way to get a strong dog back at your side.
3On in seconds: over the head, one buckle.
No stepping into leg loops and no lifting paws. Unclip the side buckle, slip it over the head, clip it shut.
Big dogs who won't stand still for straps are dressed before they notice. You stay standing the whole time, which your back will appreciate on the fifth walk of the week.
4Their name and your number, readable from a few steps away.
We print your dog's name and, if you want, your phone number on the side patch.
If your dog ever gets loose, whoever finds them can call you without wrestling a big dog to read a tiny tag. The edging on the straps is reflective too, so your dog shows up in headlights on evening walks.
5Made for their size: up to XXL, made to order.
Sizes are based on chest measurement, not weight. XL fits a 29–38" chest (think Labradors, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds), and XXL fits 33–44" (Rottweilers, Bernese Mountain Dogs, Great Danes).
Not sure? Measure the chest at its widest point, just behind the front legs, and check the chart. Each harness is made to order with your dog's name on it.

Questions
How do I pick a size?
Measure the chest at its widest point, just behind the front legs. XL is 29–38", XXL is 33–44". Between sizes? Slim dogs take the smaller size, broad dogs the bigger one. The straps adjust by several inches.
How long does it take?
Each harness is made to order. Orders are processed within 1–3 business days and most arrive 5–12 business days after you order, so allow around 2 weeks.
What if it doesn't fit?
Size exchanges are free: contact us with the size you need. And if the harness doesn't work for your dog at all, there's a 90-day money-back guarantee.
