Dog harnesses: For adventurous outings and a really good everyday life

Dog harnesses come in a wide variety of shapes and colours. In general, a harness should always be chosen for a good fit. Every breed and every dog is an individual, so it is not possible to give a general recommendation for the right harness. What is important is that the

The harness does not restrict your dog's freedom of movement and she feels really comfortable in it. She may need a little time to get used to a new harness at first.

What are the advantages of a dog harness?

A harness for dogs is not only more escape-proof than a collar, but can also have health benefits for your pet. The pulling force on the collar or harness is distributed across the shoulders and chest. This protects your pet's spine, trachea and larynx.

Which dog harnesses are available?

Trekking harness: Particularly suitable for hiking, long tours and leisure activities such as jogging, as well as an active everyday life.

H-harness: This harness was named after its shape: The back strap and the adjustable straps at the neck and belly form an H shape. It is suitable as an everyday harness and also for puppies due to its ability to grow with the dog (it’s adjustability).

Touring harness: This harness is particularly suitable for dogs that are not yet lead-trained and for long tours and jogging tours.

Puppy harness: This harness made of soft material is ideal for getting the pet used to being led. If the little ones pull hard on the lead at the beginning, the pressure is distributed evenly over the whole body due to the shape of the harness.

Dog training: There are special training harnesses for training dogs. You can find them in our category Training & Sports. The Panic Harness Stay is particularly suitable for dogs that break free from other harnesses and for fearful dogs that have come from animal shelters, for example.

Driving with a dog: Car harnesses offer a safe and comfortable way to protect dogs in the car. You can find suitable car harnesses in our car accessories category.

How do I find the right harness size?

Your dog should be able to move well and in a relaxed way in the harness: There should be nothing that constricts, pinches or squeezes. Since every dog is different, our size chart serves as a rough guide and is no substitute for trying on and testing harnesses.

How do I find the right harness fit?

When choosing a dog harness, the right fit is particularly important.

After measuring the chest circumference, the harness should be fitted taking into account the following points:

the shoulders and front legs must be able to move freely
no pressure on the larynx
the shoulder joint should move freely
the belly strap sits on the ribcage (at least 2-5 finger widths of space between armpit and belly strap, more for larger sizes)
the sternum strap rests on the sternum

You can get help choosing the right fit and size in a specialist shop.
