HI is this a good harness for a large dog that manages to slip out of other harnesses?

This harness works well for me and my 90 pound dog. However, it needs to be fit carefully and buckled/leashed properly. Also, remember with a strong dog this size, if they are absolutely determined to get loose, they will, if not by slipping the harness, then by sheer force pulling away from the person walking them.

it depends on what u are doing..if ur dog is already leashed trained this will be great....if he is leached trained and is a puller that needs to be slowed downed....u can get the Outward Hound from Amazon the is a harness and back pack u can added two bottles of h2o to give the dog a job and slow him down

My dog weighs only 68lb, he's wide st the front and smaller at the back, I got an XL size at first but had to order a LG instead, I think these sizes are generous, my dog is a golden retriever / pit bull mix, you can adjust the straps but mine is still a little big for the dog, it is a good strong harness though and it's easy to put on, just slip the vest over the dogs head and then lift one leg slightly over the strap and the two padded straps fasten at the side, it's on in seconds and the dog loves it because he's comfortable and you have complete control of his body without pulling on his neck. :) hope this helps.

As long as you able to support your dogs weight and you select the correct measurements for the harness, this should be of great help for you!

Probably. My terrier seemed to be at the high end (15 lbs) of small so I got medium and it's a little big which means you can only tighten it so much. Also, it didn't really work for my terrier. He pulls too much. It's great for my other dog though and he really seems to like it. Just FYI, it is possible for the dog to get loose from the harness if you run into one of those crazy situations with other dogs or other distractions.

It depends if the harness hooks on to the leash under the neck or on the dogs back, if its under the neck it's fine if it's the one that hooks to the leash on the back, then it's no good to you.

I think it would be best for you to contact the seller of this harness. I no longer use the harness. Previous answer by David is excellent. Give that loving doggie a bit hug for me.

Don't know if that will be a problem. This is not designed as a pet garment. Might be uncomfortable for long time wear. It's not a very soft material. It is tightly woven to be durable. Plus there are lift handles which hang when not in use that may awkward when not in use. I have a very tolerant large dog and I would never consider leaving him in a harness for any longer than needed to get in and out of car or to move him as needed.

The large/extra large will work fine. It is adjustable. You can easily adjust smaller or larger. This harness is so easy to put on and take off. It has made walking my Lab so much easier and enjoyable for both of us.

Greetings..... yes, it fit my 'extra-large' Newfoundland mix, at 135 lbs., and it does help curb the pulling....... CF

It should fit well. My Yorkie - poo has been in the toy size harness since I found it when he was 2.2lbs. It was the only harness I could find that fit him, I just bought him another one after 2 years. I now have all 3 of my dogs in this harness.

This leash is a convertible leash harness - so she might get the harness aspect undone. For a dog that is backing out of a collar- I would suggest trying a "martingale " type collar which works great to keep the dog secure. My border collie mix used to back out of her collar and we tried her with a martingale and we have never had problems .

I have a small Pekinese cross who slipped out of everything I tried, even when I modified them. This harness has eliminated that problem. He has never managed to back out and it isn't because he hasn't tried. We walk every day and I've used it for over a year.

No. This harness is great. My cat would get out of the dog harness. This harness has wide Velcro strips so she couldn't squirm out of it and it was very comfortable for her. This type will be perfect in my opinion.

I bought a Large for our 1-yr-old male cat. It was a little big for him at first, but he's now grown into it. I can tell you that this is the only harness that he hasn't been able to slip out of, and we think it's great. Easy on and off.

I have a dalmation mix about that size and the large is a perfect fit. I also have got the tether to anchor the harness to either the tie down in the back seat or the seat belt in the front. The harness has a range of adjustments and fits well. Betsy wore hers almost constantly a couple summers ago where we traveled across the country. She never had any problems with rubbing.

We have a 55 lb golden doodle and there's a lot of extra room and the harness works greatness, not sure if that helps.

The harness doesn't restrict movement on our dogs at all... I guess it's a matter of how well the get the sizing figured.
