So Recommend
We absolutely love this harness! I had one before for my dog, and it lasted for years, so I knew I wanted to buy another one. The quality is amazing — it’s strong, durable, and made with tough material that still feels comfortable for my dog. One of my favorite things is how easy it is to adjust for the perfect fit. The stretch and flexibility make it comfortable while still feeling secure and sturdy. I also love that it’s easy to hand wash, which makes keeping it clean simple and convenient. The colors look great, the material feels high quality, and you can truly tell it’s made to last. My dog loves wearing it, and I love knowing it’s reliable and safe. I highly recommend this harness to anyone looking for something durable, easy to use, and comfortable for their pet. It’s definitely worth the purchase, and I will absolutely continue buying these in the future and recommending them to friends and family!

Fits a Weiner dog! A Hoodini dachshund
Fits a Weiner!! (Dachshund) Size small. 20 lbs. I added a collar clip but I need to get a shorter one. Sizing tip..the straps have 2 straps each. The bottom strap need to be adjusted to make them larger. Make everything large, put it on your pup and pull the top straps to tighten. Chewbarka can't escape but can walk and run easily. It does not rub between his front paws. Every buckle is well placed. It feels sturdy and comfortable with padded straps. The back strap falls right below a Weiner rib cage and he looks sporty! No chafing! I also use a ruffwear locking hitch leash.

Very good harness
This is a great harness. I have very small dogs, and the harness fits well and my dogs cannot get out of it. If I need to pick up my dog quickly, the handle is great and allows me to pick up my dog easily and quickly.

Good harness, straps are a pain in the @ss to adjust!
This harness seems pretty sturdy, and my JackChi doesn't seem to have it despite it being an over-the-head style. I'm taking away 1 star because it was a PAIN IN THE @SS to initially adjust the straps! I almost returned it because it was so difficult to adjust these straps. I even had my husband help me with it. Thankfully, we managed to get it adjusted properly (my doggo was a saint, for all of the adjust/put on/take off/readjust crap I put him through 🤣).

No escapes yet
Fits my 16 pound chihuahua pug mix no problem. Seems like it works well, no escapes yet! I think the extra strap really makes the difference. The handle on top is funny but kinda useful if you want to pick your dog up like a briefcase

Quality harness
This harness prevents dogs from getting out. Great product just to small.

Didn't last 30 days.
Final edit: Today is June 17, 2026, 29 days after receiving the harness, and the D-ring tab completely ripped off. Super-gluing it after the first tear (see below) didn't take, either. I started to return this because I ordered a large, but what I got looked like it wouldn't fit any dog larger than a Cocker Spaniel, and it was definitely too small for my dog... at first. I then saw the founder's video on how to adjust the straps, so I decided to try that before sending it back. The straps are a pain in the arse to adjust, but once they are adjusted to the proper fit, they aren't going anywhere and won't slip loose. That's both good and bad. If you have arthritis, forget it, this isn't for you unless you have a dexterous, patient friend willing to adjust the straps for you. So, it now fits my dog and she seems to like it. She loves to wear a harness and will bring it to me of her own initiative, tail wagging! This harness appears to be very well-made and tough, but is nicely padded for your dog's comfort. Edit: I received this harness on May 19, 2026. Today is June 11, 2026 and as of today, the strap that holds the D-ring on the top has ripped. The base of the strap is still stitched down, but the stitching in the middle of the strap is completely ripped off. My dog is about 60 pounds and is pretty strong. She's a Black Lab /German Shepherd/ Rottweiler mix with a strong prey drive. It ripped while she was on her 50-feet-long yard tether. I will superglue it down and hopefully, that will hold.

SIZING & ADJUSTMENT CHALLENGES
SIZES RUN DIFFERENT (too small generally) and SOME can adjust smaller, others only adjust larger. If not for the sizing and adjustment challenges, would have rated a 5. I ordered an XS last year for my dog who is smaller (10 lbs, 15" chest). The XS description says it is sized for 13-17". I adjusted the straps to the very smallest I could get them, and it was still a tad too large, but still worked well and fit better than others I had been trying so have kept it and it has worked very well. LOVE the "handle", she seems comfortable, and she is unable to get out of the harness. Recently my parents needed a new harness for their dog, slightly larger than mine (17 lbs., 19" chest). We tried my dog's vest (reminder XS) knowing it would be too small, but would give an idea as to if the S would be a good fit. We ordered the S, which describes it fits 17-22". Perfect. When we received the harness it wsa too small in the adjustment received. Went to adjust the straps to make it larger - not able to adjust the straps larger; but could adjust them smaller only. The adjustments straps were configured differently than mine that was an XS. Presuming it may have been a mistake on the noted size as it was more the size of my XS, we returned it and had another XS sent. NOPE ... it too was too small, could not be adjusted larger, just like before. Okay .... maybe there is a new manufacturer so sizing is different now (although per the measurements in the description we should have been fine, and the straps should have adjusted larger), we went one size up to a M. Yes, that size is described for 22-?", which is larger than our dog ... but he was in the size range for the S and that one was too small - and this one was at minimum 1" larger, so again ... should by that logic fit. Well, received the newly ordered M and NOPE it was HUGE. This one, however, did have the same adjustment straps as mine and was able to be adjusted smaller. We made it as small as possible, and still TOO BIG. So their 19" chest dog is "too large" for the S (which should fit 17-22") and "too small" for the M, which would be expected going by the description, but was hopeful would fit since the S ran sooo much smaller than its description size. Needless to say, my parents are now looking for a different harness. All in all: 1) BE WARY of the SIZE. You may have to get a larger or smaller one than you think and hopefully one will fit well enough to use. 2) IF you do find a size that fits your dog - you will love this harness. They cannot get out of it, the handle is great (both top and back), it has two clips (one on top and one at the chest) which both work well.

NOT ESCAPE PROOF!
3 STARS AS ITS NOT ESCAPE PROOF!! I'm writing this review as advisory and after using this product for over a month. While the harness is sturdy and good quality, it looks very good and is worth the price as per the build and product quality goes, it still however, bdoesn't serve the purpose of being 'escape proof' as claimed. My pet easily wriggled out of it. I had his bought this of sole purpose, that as per the claim, my pet won't be able to get this off. Indie dogs are smart and very much adaptive. The learn and understand things faster as compared to other foreign show breeds. So, if you're an Indie dog pet parent and looking for escape proof harness then PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS.

La solución para perros escapistas!
Tenemos una perrita EXPERTA en zafarse de cualquier arnés (hasta ahora). En el video se ve el movimiento que siempre hacía para salirse con la suya y zafarse en dos segundos; se movía para atrás y ya se salía como si se quitara un chaleco literal. Aquí vio una ardilla y quería perseguirla pero no pudo!!! Hasta ahora arnés 1-perro escapista 0
