2 Hounds Design Freedom No-Pull Dog Harness with Leash, Large, 1-Inch Wide, Teal

We have a 3.5-year-old male Labrador who weighs 38.5 kilos (85lbs) and has the strength of a small car. Because of his naturally inquisitive nature, he needs to get everywhere at lightning speed which means whenever I take him out, he constantly pulls on his lead (yeah, I'm a Brit) and by the time we get home, my arms were always aching with the strain. We've tried quite a few different harnesses/restraints over the years and all to no avail.This one turned up yesterday after we returned from another torturous walk (for me) so today was the first attempt. I confess that after having read the positive reviews for this harness, I remained sceptical, however comforted by the fact that I could return it when I proved it didn't work. The harness is available in several different colours to suit the owner’s choice or match with the dog’s coat. I was concerned that the harness and lead would be somewhat flimsy, but they are extremely well made and very strong.We went out on our usual walk in the countryside and I am honestly amazed by the transformation!!Initially, there was no pulling at all until he got used to the harness. Any pulling after that was quickly corrected by a slight (and I mean slight) tug on his lead or by me simply stopping. I kept him on the double lead until we left the village where we live then had him on the single lead attached to the top of the harness for the rest of the walk.I can honestly say that today was the first time in 3.5 years that I thoroughly enjoyed taking the dog out for a walk. No more aching arms for me but more importantly, no more choking noises from my dog which I always found distressing.

This is no substitute for proper leash manners, but makes life easier with a reactive dog. A determined puller will still pull without proper training, so don’t expect miracles from any tools, however, it’s a lot easier to control our dog and people reactive boy when he happens to try and lunge (he is about 30 kg and I’m a 50 kg female). Try and not let that happen though as this classed as an aversive harness if the back clip is used, which can create an association between the tightening feeling and trigger (not that good), but prevention and training combined with this harness used properly will give you great results.It’s a sturdy and durable tool, and all the stitches, clips and buckles seem to be great quality. We go on long hikes and woodland walks with this on and we had no problem so far. I love the fact that it comes with a lead - maybe the handle could do with some padding on as it can be a little bit rough on the hands, but I really don’t think that’s a major issue as we use a hiking belt for longer walks.

Absolutely fantastic! Finally after six years our headstrong Labrador walks properly..... hallelujah.I think some dogs just do not want to be dragged around by their necks and they actually have a point and should be respected. All dogs should have this harness as it really does work and both owner and pet are finally happy.

Very well designed. Perfect for my moltipoo dog who likes to pull. I have bought these harnesses many times before and feel they are the best on the market that I have seen so far.My only wish is that the clip fasters would be made of brass instead of plastic.

Does what it says on the tin with a good warranty on the webbing if the dog chews or catches and cuts straps they will replace up to two straps, it’s nice and comfortable just watch your sizing as it has to be measured carefully apart from that very good value for the money and the leash is top quality as well

Bought this on recommendation for when our lab puppy grows into dog size. Looks good feels nice and soft and the double lead looks good if you have a dog that needs both training mode and leisure mode loops connected at the same time so offers all options for great training, control and fun.

My Retriever pulls like a lion, and this actually works, I don't totally know why but would definitely recommend. It isn't the cheapest but the buckles etc are metal not plastic like my previous one which broke, so you are paying for quality!

I love this harness and have it for my other two dogs. I Bought a third for my older dog. The wrong colour was sent I ordered brown and was sent blue. However the blue is lovely so I decided to keep it. Just need to buy a matching collar now!!
