Product Description The Easy Walk Harness is designed to gently discourage your dog from pulling while walking on a leash. The Easy Walk Harness is simple to use and easy to fit. Your dog will love it as much as you will! Unlike a collar, the Easy Walk Harness never causes coughing, gagging, or choking because the chest strap rests low across the breastbone, not on the delicate tracheal area. Traditional harnesses can actually encourage dogs to pull harder because of the "opposition reflex". That's the reflex that makes sled dogs do what they do. The Easy Walk Harness redirects the pressure through the front leash attachment. And, the patent pending martingale closure tightens slightly across the chest and shoulder blades when your dog attempts to pull forward. Measure your dog around the rib cage to determine proper fit. 12"-16" Girth = Petite (Teacup breeds), 15"-20" Girth = Small (Jack Russels, Shelties, etc.), 20"-28" Girth = Medium (Border Collies, Spaniels, etc.), 26"-36" Girth = Large (Labs, Goldens, Rotties, etc.). 34"-46" Girth = X-Large (Giant breeds). 'TWEENER SIZES ARE NOW AVAILABLE! Does your dog fall in between 2 sizes? Check out our "in-between" sizes for that perfect fit! 14"-18" = Petite/Small, 19"-25" = Small/Medium and 25"-35" = Medium/Large

Delivers on its name: An Easy Walk! July 29, 2010 Catherine Nguyen I love the Easy Walk harness. I am a petite person with two medium/large dogs to walk every day, three times a day. One of my dogs was a terrible puller. Even though I could put the Gentle Leader on her, she would pull until a semi-permanent line was left across her muzzle. With the Easy Walk, she is much, much more manageable and I find my two K9s and I can now walk together without effort!
I would give the Easy Walk harness 5 stars except for few issues:
1. The harness does not fit my other dog very well. I tried the Medium, the Large, and the in-between Medium/Large. He's a shepherd/chow mix with a very broad chest and thin midsection. I don't know why, the available sizes just don't fit well.
2. Though I tried to adjust the strap that goes across the chest, it always slides loose, so the M/L harness is always to loose across the front.
3. This results in the harness and leash sagging in the front and my poor dog often gets his leash tangled between his front leg. Thankfully, he is very patient and has learned to step out and get the leash back in front of him.
Great for 'not so average' dogs! May 25, 2010 suzyq517 (VA) Our mutt is strong and pulls like an ox! Thankfully when we took her through obedience school her instructor recommended the Easy Walk harness to help in her training... well that was 2 years, 15lbs and 2 harnesses ago! She has since outgrown the medium, but was easily able to escape from the large, so the M/L has been perfect so far! It seems to be much more comfortable on her thanks to the extra girth around the chest and the 1" webbing.
lifesaver... May 24, 2010 P. Turk I love this harness and so does my large breed puppy. She has learned very quickly not to pull making our walks very enjoyable.
great harness April 12, 2010 elaine (JACKSONVILLE, FL, US) This is the best harness I have used. My springer spaniel walks right along side easily without pulling and will sit immediately when I stop. He walks well on a regular harness with the "loop" on the back but is easier to get his attention with this one. Have tried the "gentle leader" which goes around his snout which he hated. I was happy to find this one since it came in the "in-between" size. (between medium and large) I did not find this available in the retail stores. Price and service was excellent from this vendor "happy dog place"
Great Buy for my Pitbull March 30, 2010 Jessica Lynn Suppa (Oceanside, NY USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am 19 years old and I have a Pitbull Rocky who is now about 5 months old. He is enrolled in a Petsmart Puppy Training Class and they recommended my boyfriend and I purchase the Gentle Leader so it would train him to stop pulling. I loved this product after trying it out during one of the classes. He fiddled with it for a little while at first while wearing it, but after a few moments he was completely fine and focused. I loved how it was a HUMANE alternative compared to things like choke collars. It stopped him from pulling which is ultimately what we wanted, but I did not like the way other people stared at him while we took him for walks. Even when we took him to PetSmart (his favorite) to buy a few items a man literally backed away terrified of my puppy. Pitbulls have a bad reputation to begin with and people who were unfamiliar with the product just looked at him like he was a vicious killer. He loves people and other animals and it broke my heart. We asked our trainer and she recommended this body harness which was also a premier product. I love how instantly it started to work and he didn't even fuss about having it on. My boyfriend and I now love to take him on walks even more because Rocky is no longer being stared at as a vicious animal but as a good obedient dog. I would definitely recommend this to people with pitbulls or any other dogs that pull you down the street while you take them for a walk. :)
