Very pleased with this harness which was bought to replace a previous well known brand harness which was causing an issue on my dog's shoulder and resulted in her having to have some private treatment to alleviate the tension and pain caused by the previous harness. I did a lot of research and this one came recommended by various breeders too. This harness allows my dog easy movement, fits her comfortably, and she can move freely, in fact I tend to leave it on her when she is off lead, this is a first as her previous ones I always removed as I wanted her to have full movement, whilst running around through the fields off lead. I tend to use a double ended lead as I have a large dog,and this means I have more control should a squirrel decide to do a suicide mission in front of her, I clip one end of the lead onto her collar the other on the plastic clip at the front of the harness. Personally, I do feel that the makers could look at replacing the plastic clip for a metal one, this would give more reassurance to us owners with large dogs like myself, hopefully, fingers crossed this plastic clip will remain intact!. There is a metal clip on the top, near the dogs shoulders which you can use, but this is something I personally find awkward and my dog is used to having her lead clipped at the front. Good range of colours, I have chosen orange, it complements my dog perfectly, and also washes nicely with no need to tumble dryer, also there are a couple of reflectors on the harness so if out walking in the dark I can see her, that said, I have ordered a reflective collar for the winter months just to be sure.In short a great harness but you must ensure that you measure your dog correctly to get the right fit..

I bought the XXXS thinking that it would fit because the girth measurement was fine but my dog is too small in the shoulder/neck and body length for the harness, so I would check the neck and length measurements of the harness to make sure it will fit. Not a huge issue because my dog is still a tiny pup so will (hopefully!) Grow into it as it's only a few cm too big.Overall the harness is great, as well made as the other ruffwear ranges of harness, looks and feels good,doesn't appear to have any weak points yet. Whilst there is no padding it feels as good quality as the other rangers and is made out of the same cover material, all the clips and lead attachment are similar to the others (I have a couple of webmaster and a front range too for my other dog).After some minor adjustments and putting it on over a jumoer, it fit my dog fine,moulded really well to his shape and hasn't rubbed in any places. Can recommend it if you need to find a decent harness that's light for your dog and isnt too bulky but still secure!

I ordered the XS for my 15 lb miniature schnauzer. Her chest measured 18 inches. I had trouble adjusting the straps for her chest. My husband discovered the strap to increase length was tucked into the top section of the harness which includes the metal attachment for leashes. What a relief. I thought I would have to return it.I originally ordered the Ruffwear Webmaster Pro. It has two rows of straps behind the front legs and does not have clips to attach the straps. The straps have to be loosened and tightened each time. My dog hates it. But, I think it is inescapable! I kept it for longer hikes because it has a handle to assist her over things.The Hi & Light Dog Harness isn't perfect on her.There is a bit of extra material between her front legs. The neck is as small as possible. Behind her legs this strap is probably a little snugger than she would like but she doesn't look able to get out of it. She doesn't seem bothered by putting the harness on or wearing it. I think this is a good every day harness.

Have been looking at a harness that fits my Sprocker comfortably, safely and easily. This harness does this.He will swim and splash in any puddle, pond or stretch of water. He tears around on trails and through bracken. He avidly follows us mountain biking on all rough and dirty trails.I have found that previous harnesses have caused rubbing, leading to a sore near the shoulder. Some have been cumbersom which is not great due to his love of water. Some he was able to get his front paws out of while swimming due to their poor fit.The ruffwear harness on its first weekend outing was very easy to fit and adjust. It fitted well and was very resilient to mud and dirt picked up as he jumped in every puddle and muddy pond.After an afternoon of charging round,the harness did not rub and stayed securely put.I rinsed the harness at home and left it to dry on the radiator. Pleased to say it dried very quickly and looked as new.I have now bought another one for our black lab. Really pleased with them so far.

This is a very nice and lightweight harness! I could see my dog wearing this all day with no issues. And the best part was the fit! The underside of the harness was far enough away from the front legs and underarms that I don't think there's any worry of chafing or impediment to natural movement. This provided the most leg clearance of any harness I've ever tried! The only negative was that, for some reason, I had a really hard time understanding how to FULLY loosen the straps that accomodate the rib cage. I had them partially loosened, but was frustrated thinking this product was never going to fit and that the measurements were inaccurate, as others had mentioned.But I asked someone else to help with the adjustments and they were able to figure out how to fully loosen the straps and it was plenty large. My dog measured 19" at fullest chest location and I purchased the size XS to accommodate a 17-22" chest. I think this sizing was accurate.

I have a 13 week old Eurasier and was not keen on the first harness I bought as I felt it constricted her chest , so decided to try a Ruffwear.What I like is how adjustable it is.. the neck, the girth straps, so it can really be adjusted to fit properly, and importantly she has room to grow rapidly and it will fit her for a while . I bought the size she JUST fitted into (ie on the large size) as she was borderline between two sizes, and I'm glad I did as it does come up snug when all the straps are at their tightest, but this is probably breed dependent and mine's basically a fuzzy bear :)It is easy to put on ..pop over the head and buckle up the sides and it doesn't restrict her in any way.Time will tell how robust it is, but she was happy to wear it straight away.

I've tried many different types but this is by far the best. It's light weight, the fit is good and easily adjustable. It's not too bulky and allows my cocker a good range of movement without rubbing. Measure carefully and follow the guidelines for a proper fit, the right chest measurement also means that there will be good clearance between the harness strap behind the leg and the armpit, if the measurement is on the limit I would go up a size as you will probably need the extra length on the chest plate going under the body to get clearance for the legs which is very important as can cause chaffing if too small.

We bought this harness after reading the reviews. We are very happy with this harness. Our cairn terrier is growing into the harness. Very easy to adjust the harness using the four straps. The plastic buckle fasteners appear strong enough. We will be upgrading to a larger size eventually but this one will do us some time I’m sure due to the straps being adjustable. The material the harness is made of is very sturdy to. Dries quickly and the top metal lead hook is strong to. I can’t recommend this harness enough and glad I spend a little more on this one.

A really well made harness that can adjust to comfortably fit your dog. When you look closely at all the carefully made detail, you can see why it’s not cheap. It is a great design which leaves his shoulders to move freely. The underbelly straps have a little elsticated give at one end to ensure a secure but snug fit.I love the little pocket for the ID - easy to forget if you swap over from a collar - and the loop underneath for a light, which I always like to use at night.Delighted with the harness and Benji is quite happy to put it on and wear it.

I initially ordered XS as my little sheltie measures 53cm around his widest part of ribcage (he is really small) and I thought that would fit well. Sadly we had to return it as it was too small.Now we have a size S and it's not on its smallest setting but rather more towards the 69cm max range.It's such a lovely harness -he moves well in it and I like both how it fits him and how lightweight it is now summer is finally here.I really recommend this harness but beware of its sizing, it may be worth sizing up if not sure.

Wasn't sure if it will be how it was described. So happy it is. Fits perfectly my not standard shaped girl. It is so light and such a high quality. Thinking about getting a second one as when it rains or if washed would like to have a spear. I tried all kinds but none of them even come close to this harness. So happy I found it! But please note that it is a size or so smaller. My dog is 53cm on the widest part of chest but XS is too small but S fits perfectly

Talla: L-XL. Gos: Gos de muntanya del Pirineu. Pes: +60 kgArnés molt molt lleuger de petit. És l'expressió mínima en un arnés amb subjecció de pit. Ajust per quatre punts i fàcil d'ajustar. Queda com un guant.No té agafador, només l'anella per la corretja. Tampoc té velcros per posar etiquetes, però si una butxaca on posar la placa identificativa.Tot i ser minimalista, és de molt bona qualitat i robust. Ruffwear és car (molt car), però per una bona raó.

Bought this for my old JRT, he had worn out old front style ruffwear harness. This new style is much lighter and for dog that does not really pull this it great. We use the ruffware harness for walking and in the car. Would like to see more colours available.The biggest downside is that these harnesses are expensive, however they are really strong survive going in and out of water and through hedges etc and the last one was nearly three years old.

This was the 2nd time I've bought this harness as i recently got a second dog. I like them because they are lightweight and soft. Fully Adjustable to fit comfortably around the dogs neck/ shoulders and also around their body. I got medium for my corgis and corgis are not an average shape but adjusts well to fit.Material is easy to clean. I washed my old one and had trouble telling my older one from my new one.

I have bought this harness twice now. I am very pleased with it overall. I don't expect a lightweight harness to last as long as a heavier duty one which I also own but I have an extremely active working cocker spaniel (small for breed average) and the lightweight means she doesn't get too hot in it and when it gets soaking et it dries out quickly. Will be buying again in future when she wears this harness out.
