A great first choice and our best seller! Lots of sizes, colors and useful features. Economical. Like all of the front-attachment harnesses, it is easy to use and very effective. |
A few dogs are so strong that the this harness is not enough of a deterrent. Does not give enough control for aggressive dogs. Not recommended for use with a leash longer than 6 feet. |

The fit and features of this front-attachment harness make it a favorite. The straps are away from the armpits and the padding helps prevent shifting and chaffing. The collar clip is a great security measure. The Halti Harness can also be used as a regular harness. |
A few dogs are so strong that the this harness is not enough of a deterrent. Does not give enough control for aggressive dogs. In our usage we found that the straps would loosen over time. To remedy this, simply place a stitch through the straps once you have it adjusted to your liking. |

Best for very strong pullers and aggressive dogs since it gives control of the head. The shape of this halter makes it more comfortable for most dogs than other head halters. Extremely easy to put on and to fit. |
Takes some training for most dogs to get used to it. Possible concern about straining the neck if the dog lunges strongly into the collar. Not recommended for use with a leash longer than 6 feet. |

Only our Xtreme leash, Leash Shock absorber or Jerk-Ease is strong enough to effectively reduce pulling. Works well in addition to one of the above or for dogs that don't pull very much. |
Your dog may not learn not to pull, but the pulling will feel less strong. |
