Puppia Soft Dog Harness, Yellow, Large

Q: Does this harness help prevent pulling at all?

I am much happier walking with the harness than the regular collar. My dog will still pull, but she is no longer choking herself and making herself cough terribly. When she barks at other dogs it is a lot easier to pull her back and control her.

Q: I have 2 Daschunds and use walking vests on them which do not pull off if I am walking ahead of them. What about these?

My dog managed to wiggly out twice! My dog is a leash puller, but he can't get out of he's pulling. He can, however, get out if I retract the leash so that he's right next to me (no slack on the leash), he can get out. Imagine you putting your hands up to take a T shirt off. That's how my dog got out not once, but twice even after tightening the strap around his body. The strap hugs him so tight, that I have to be careful not to clip his hair when buckling.

Q: can you use this for cats?

absoultlly!!! my cat is whom I bought it for. She loves going on walks with my dog and I around the neighborhood and this harness is great as it doesn't choke her like the strap harness'. on the leg thing that Jeanine A. said on 1/25/13. If your cat or dog is patient you can even pull out the strap and then rethread it to put it on them, so you are not putting their leg in it but just strapping it on. :)

Q: How well does this stay on if the pup is of the wriggly variety and likes to get out of her gentle leader?

I would say that if it is fastened securely, and it does have the ability to tighten under the pups ribcage, it should do the job just fine as you can adjust the harness to the proper fit making it nice and snug.
