I suggested this product for a client a service dog lab puppy who is ready for a long-lasting service dog harness. It was important for this puppy to not only look like a "real" service dog, but begin practicing obedience downs w/ weight being pulled against him. His training will be for a young boy who has "walking seizures" which essentially is a term to describe partial seizures which cause him to walk/run away. The service pup is being trained to maintain a down during this time to "anchor" the boy with his mom.Anyway, with all of the different D-ring placements, the ability to swap out different patches as necessary, the handle, and the sturdy construction, this is all around a MUST BUY!
My only complaint is the sizing. A small was ordered for this 45# dog and the strap that goes between the legs from the front is TOO LONG. It is on its tightest fitting and is still too large, even though the girth strap is almost completely extended. I called and spoke with the manufacturing co. got the measurements. I don't know of any breed which would fit these types of dimensions. I tried this on my 50# 2.5 yr old APBT for sizing and still, on the tightest center strap setting, it fits perfectly around his wide chest (strap which is parallel to ground), and doesn't fit in the girth (even though his measurements do). I have ordered it for him with the strap extension piece.
So, if you are looking to buy a professional grade harness with multi-point connections, this is your harness! HOWEVER, I suggest to go one size smaller than you think you need and get the strap extension.
