Product Description

Introducing the latest innovation in pulling prevention the Gentle Leader Easy Walk Harness. Designed to gently discourage your dog from pulling while walking on a leash, the Easy Walk Harness is so simple easy to fit, and easy to use. Dogs AND owners love it! Unlike traditional collars, the Gentle Leader Easy Walk Harness never causes coughing, gagging, or choking because the chest strap rests low across the breastbone, not on the delicate tracheal area. Why it works: 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 Gentle Leader Easy Walk Harness redirects the pressure through the front leash attachment. And, our patent pending martingale closure tightens slightly across the chest and shoulder blades when your dog attempts to pull forward. Traditional sizes: petite dogs with girth measurements of 12-16", small dogs with girth measurements of 15-20", medium dogs with girth measurements of 20-28", large dogs with girth measurements of 26-36", extra large dogs with girth measurements of 34-46". And now the Easy Walk Harness is available in 3 new Tweener sizes petite/small, small/medium, and medium/large. Designed to fit dogs whose girth and chest proportions do not fit within our 5 traditional sizes, these Tweener sizes bridge the gap. Dogs with especially broad or narrow chests may get a more accurate fit with Tweeners. The P/S size accommodates dogs with girth measurements of 14 -18 , the S/M allows girth adjustments of 19 -25 , and the M/L is designed for dogs with 25 -35 girths.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent training aid, not so good for anything else., July 10, 2009

This helped me train my dog to heel off-leash. If you understand how to train your dog, this will be an amazingly helpful tool.

However, I found that the adjustments slip very easily. This caused the front chest strap to fall. If I pulled when it fell, I'd be pulling on my pups legs, making him trip.

You CANNOT use this as an everyday harness. It's not made so you can yank on a dog that is constantly pulling. If you do this, you'll run into the "my dog walks at an angle" problem, and find the straps loosening up all the time.

Also, a warning to people with dogs with deep chests relative to height i.e. Boston Terriers, Frenchies, Doxies, Pits, etc. Your dog won't fit the harness so well. It'll take a lot of adjustment, and you'll never get it the way the picture says you should, so don't even bother.

My young Boston Terrier was a real chore to walk...pulling and tugging on the leash. I have two other dogs, so walking them all each day was hard...until the easy walk harness! I highly recommend this harness!

5.0 out of 5 stars This has worked wonders with our Boston!, June 3, 2009

Our 1yr old Boston is a terrible puller. I had tried a different harness that while comfortable for him (and much better then a regular collar), did absolutely no good with his pulling. With the Easy Walk Harness, there is an immediate halt to the pulling. He still seems to have range of movement, and is comfortable and still enjoying his walks as well. I am thinking of trying this on our Boxer as well!
