Is there a place to clip a leash? I noticed one of the older models had that feature? My dogs pull a lot when walking and I don't like to use a collar for that reason. Normally I use a harness but sounds like the pack would cover the harness up.

I cannot find any kind of a hook to clip a leash on mine. If that's important to you, you might want to try the Kurgo (I was pretty happy with that one - though the pockets aren't as roomy and it's all one piece). FWIW, my dog pulls a lot and I found a pinch collar works pretty well. Believe it or not, combined with a retractable leash, he's much more manageable. He has more freedom and responds better to the pinch collar. I know that's not the "proper" way to walk a dog, but I'm happy if I can walk him without getting sore arms!

I believe it works more like a choker collar if the choker collar is used properly (worn very high up around almost the ears) My dog is a puller and she is slightly better with this. She also didn't mind pulling with the gentle leader

In the possibly unlikely event that a larger dog/animal might put your dog in danger, yanking a leash with a chain or just a collar could harm your dog. Yanking on the anti-pull harness will safely pull your dog from danger. We love our Yuppie Puppy anti pull harness!

Not sure about the actual clip, but have you thought about using a clip from a dog leash or similar? At least its a work around until you can find the actual clip.

Hi Barb! I have unfortunately had to us this a few times...I try to bring it with me every time I walk my dog and I live in a very rural area. However some people do not obey the leash law our town has with dogs. On a few different occasions my dog and I were approached by dogs that were "loose" and unaccompanied by an adult...WELL...my HALT came in very useful! The dogs retreated away from us... and we were able to not be harmed in what could have been an ugly situation. I hope this helps you! :)

I haven't had any problems with attaching a leash. The front doesn't come up so high that the collar is covered so leash goes on as usual. There is an opening if you are using a harness. The Thundershirt really makes a difference with our little dog during storms, I would recommend it for sure!

Hey there, not entirely sure what your question was as it looks like it was cut off. I used this pack with my 75 pound lab/shepherd on a section of the AT last year at it worked like a charm. We did a few practice walks with it when at home, increasing the weight a little every time. At first I thought there was no way he was going to get used to it but as soon as we hit the trails it was as if it didnt exist anymore.Also, in case you didn't know, there is one section of the AT where dogs are not allowed and that is through the smokey mountain national park section. I believe there are bording services that can shuttle your dog for you. Hey there, not entirely sure what your question was as it looks like it was cut off.

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 .

There is a ring on the harness on the dog's back, you could probably clip the ID there. So far, I've left our dog's collar on the few times I have used the harness.

I don't know but... I would buy a "gentle leader" leash they are great and worked instantly for both of my dogs that were very difficult to walk on a leash!

For my dogs, their harness clips are reachable just under the top edge of the Thundershirt collar. The harness rings land where a normal dog collar ring(s) would be.

I tried to find out as much information about these collars as possible. There is one school of thought that says do NOT get a quick release fastener if you have a strong/aggressive dog cuz it's possible for them to tug so hard that this release comes open. It surely makes putting the collar on and taking it off MUCH easier, I can say for sure. Look at some videos on YouTube for great information. Just measure the dogs neck for sizing. It's no problem to take some links out if it's too large. If you choose too small, you can order extra links as well. I've tried other collars and, believe me, this one has no competition.

Hi, I found this item to be made cheaply?? Like on top there is no safety so I used wired to stop it from maybe caving in. Also it doesn't close very well either, so you may want to use a back up clip. For a 5 lb dog might be fine but, For a few more dollars you can get either a Midwest or another brand. Hope this helps

There is another collar that comes with this leash. You can wrap the collar around the collar that is on your dog so if they were to pull, ther is an extra one as a helper. as a saftey one, so ass not to break your collar

I got mine hoping it would keep my dog from pulling on the leash...It didn't work for me because it would get to tight on her neck...I'm not sure if it will keep your dog from climbing the fence wish I could be more helpful..

My dogs tags are on a separate collar and are not on the harness at all. She wears the collar all the time but only wears the harness when we go out because I am required to have a leash on her.

The Flexi Freedom for a dog over 100 pounds has a larger clip at the end. If you're interested in buying one, I would buy the one for a dog over 100 pounds so you could clip a collar and a harness at the same time. Some people have a tendency to grab the leash when they accidently rub the handle against their hip or leg and the brake on the handle releases. What can happen is, the dog can take off because he was distracted. Don't grab the leash, it can tear off your finger! This incident happened to me and burned my hand.
