Then there are two rings, one from each side, that the leash hooks to. If you get one like this that doesn't go over his head, he might fight you less. Then, later when he's outgrown this phase and is more trusting (yes, it will happen) you could go back to the other style harness if that's what you prefer. |
This is a good example of the step in harness. I have one that I bought from a YT member, chattiesmom. She makes silk harnesses that are adjustable in various colors. When Gracie was a puppy we used the Puppia step in vest harness that was more confining and I was able to control her puppy antics with. Now that she is older the silk harness works great. She loves it and kisses it every time I get it out.
