2 Hounds DesignFreedom No Pull Velvet Lined Dog Harness and Leash Training Package Royal Blue Large

As the owner of a very healthy happy independent and strong dog, this harness was life-changing for me. I am a small person with not much strength in my wrists, and walking my dog was difficult and sometimes painful. This harness allows me to walk her with barely any pull, and I can hold the leash through the crook of my elbow or even just one hand, and still have control. It operates by pulling sideways, which negates the direction of her pull. We tried other harnesses, which she hated and tries to chew off, because they did not sit at the correct place on her chest. This was the fourth harness style that I have tried and I will never try a different brand after seeing the improvement. The harness fits very well and has a velvet bottom strap which is softer. She does not seem to mind this harness at all. The leash has a sliding wrist band which makes it easy to hold and control. We are now on our second one as she outgrew the first, she had the green set and now she has the pink set. They are well constructed. The colors are very nice, especially with the matching leash.

This harness works perfectly for our 60 lb pit mix. He has alot of energy and the harness with the double leash is perfect for him, it allows me to have some control while walking him. The material of the harness is very soft for his thin hair and sensitive skin. It is adjustable in every way possible which is perfect since most harnesses don't fit his body properly. Would definitely buy again.

This is a good quality harness. We typically don't walk our dog on a leash but needed something for camping in a state park where leashes were required. I was very happy that when I put it on her for the first time it didn't bother her at all. She just walked and ran around like she wasn't even wearing it. The padding around the chest is helpful so it doesn't rub. We measured our dog and she fit right in the middle of a large, however I had to adjust it to almost the smallest setting on the front straps for it to fit right. If your dog doesn't have thick or long fur you may need to go a size down. It still fits a little weird though as it seems tight in the front when she sits but loose when she walks. It also has a tendency to shift to the right after a while and has to be re-adjusted so the loop is on top. The way this harness works is the gray part where you clip the leash is a loop so it tightens when the dog pulls. This was enough of a deterrent when our dog was getting too far ahead and needed to be gently pulled back, but if she had somewhere she really really wanted to go it didn't do much. I don't think this is the best option for someone that really has an issue with a dog that pulls. I would highly HIGHLY recommend this harness for general walks on a reasonably behaved dog though. When you think about it, having your dog tethered by something around their neck is just a bad idea.

Seems to be sturdy and good quality however didn't help with pulling with my 110 lb dane any better than any other harness. Would not suggest if pulling is your issue.

Recommended For:Owners whose dogs love to pull.For owners whose dogs are willing to endure pain by pulling, this gentle discomfort on the chest is keyWhy It Won't Work For Some:Freedom Harness directions say: You must accompany the harness with a basic training technique (below). Owners who are willing to spend half an hour for a few days training their dog will get a great result of walking with ease. Without the training, your dog won't understand as easily and you won't be as likely to find success. Those who don't read in the harness' directions to follow this technique don't find success with the harness.Basic Training Technique:You need to firmly dig your feet into the ground and stop when your dog is pulling too hard. This way, the dog realizes that pulling won't get them anywhere, and the harness makes it hard to pull anyways. Once your dog stops pulling and looks at you, you can reward them by walking again. This really gets through their heads that pulling isn't worth it! Pulling won't bring them closer to their next adventure!The harness the above technique way easier to do because they can't pull hard for long in this harness. With training AND the harness, your dog will DECIDE to stop pulling.My Previous Attempts:My siberian husky mix lives to run and pull. If I walk her on her collar, she'll pull so hard, she'll nearly choke herself. When I try to stop her from moving to discourage pulling, she'll slip her collar. If I walk her on a regular harness (attaching in the back, non-constrictive), she'll pull with even more force because she can put her whole body into it, and I find it almost impossible to stop her. When I use a front-attaching harness, she pulls so much that it twists to the side, which hurts her front leg and still doesn't keep her from pulling. A head harness makes her uncomfortable, but it doesn't stop her from pulling until it twists around and digs into her snout and eye. A sound and shock collar based on pulling (SimpleLEASH) worked very well at correcting her behavior at the right times and discouraging pulling, but I was looking for something that would be less touchy, less scary to my dog, and more suited towards walking two dogs.My Experience:On our first walk with the freedom harness, she still pulled much too hard for herself in the beginning. Her pulling tightened the martingale loop, and she needed to slow down to catch her breath.She couldn't pull as much because when she did, she couldn't catch her breath.But I followed the recommended training technique that accompanies this harness: when she pulls too hard, stop; when she looks into your eyes, go. (Freedom harness makes stopping the dog MUCH easier!)This harness together with this training technique helped my dog decide that pulling hard wouldn't get her where she wanted to go, but pulling gently and focusing on me would let her go all around the neighborhood.This only took 30 minutes on our first walk.The harness does make a difference because we implemented similar training for years with no success. This harness gives her a little discomfort that she needs to have when pulling too hard, so she takes it down a few notches.SUMMARY:Best harness I've used for walksMartingale loop keeps dogs from catching their breath when pullingVelvet layer keeps the constricted harness a small discomfort instead of pain by protecting their chestFreedom Harness with simple training works wonders!

We have a 53 pound standard poodle puppy, walking with a regular leash and martingale collar was not working. This system is fantastic, no pulling at all. My shoulder is so grateful to the designer. First day out, encountered children on bikes, walkers, and other dogs. Every obstacle to make my dog go wonky-no wonkiness! We are now enjoying walking our dog!

I've tried a few harnesses of a 'similar' no-pull design from the front and they were around the $20-25 mark; they were just poorly designed and flawed. This thing however is fantastic and worth more than the asking price! It's extremely secure on my dog, I don't have to lift his front end up or get him to step into it, I just put it around his neck and the chest portion swings around and snaps into place very easily. It looks to be of a very sturdy material and a comfortable design. The fact that it comes with this leash is just icing on top of it all. Really a great product and I would buy it again.

I absolutely love this freedom no pull harness. I have tried to walk my Staffordshire cross who is leash reactive on many other harnesses and I can’t! This makes walking and ease. Originally I didn’t love utilizing the front clip as it was a vast learning curve. After working with a trainer, and utilizing the front clip as a redirection tool... I. CAN. WALK. MY. DOG!!!!!

Bought for my rottie x bullmastiff, really strong and much better control with the front clip, fab product. Pink was a more of a fuchsia than the baby pink in the pic but preferred that anyway. Would recommend

This harness drastically changed how we walk our dog. Our dog on a regular Leash would pull to no end and was very hard to control being a husky/ lab/ border collie. We saw instant results putting this harness on and now feel we actually have control when walking. The two leads makes a big difference because it is very easy to redirect them from distractions, or other dogs. She doesn't get the chance anymore to put her full weight into pulling anymore! Would pay more for this with the results were have been seeing, we used to fear walking around the streets but now it's made easy.

Love the design. My dog didn’t respect the halti anymore, this was a good solution. While she still pulls, I have better control to keep her beside me.Material and hardware are quality.Harness does not slip when wearing.My dog is a determined to pull, 76 lb Rottweiler.

Great harness for dogs who like to pull; we use it on our Labrador and she walks to much better.
