I loved the idea of this harness because I had tried the muzzle type of gentle leader and my dog (lab) still pulled. But I noticed after using this harness for 2 weeks that my dog developed a raised and bleeding welt under his front leg (where the harness loops under his chest). As a result, I am back to a regular collar.

I was hesitant to believe the other reviews, but my 75 lb dog immediately stopped pulling when I started using this harness. I was amazed. However, the more I have used it, I think she has become a little more desensitized to it. For example, if there's a lot of stimulation (another dog approaching, excited kid wanting to pet her) she will still pull full force as if she weren't wearing a harness at all. But what I have learned is that while the harness is still working for walks, I should reward her constantly for not pulling, reinforcing the calm walking. Eventually I hope to not even have to use the harness because it has already taught her to walk calmly.

This product is amazing! It really works!! I have a 6 yr. old pitbull and for the first time I was able to take my dog for a walk. I highly recommend this for anyone who has a puller. It took about one week for my dog to get used to me putting the harness on him. (it was a little rough, but we got through it). I attach the leash to the harness and collar just in case the harness would come off. I don't know why I waited so long to order a harness, I guess I was hoping that he would just stop pulling one day. I can't wait for other members of my family to walk him. (they never could before). I think my 7 yr. old niece could actually walk him now that I purchased the best harness ever! Thank You!! Thank You!! God Bless the person who invented this product!
