Dog harnesses are better for your dog than collars.
These days a lot of veterinarians recommend that you should get dog harness instead of dog collars. Harnesses are much better for dogs as they are easier on dog’s back and neck. Harnesses are available in the market in a wide variety of styles.
You can have dog harnesses for any breed of dog and for dogs that have certain behavioral issues; whether your pet dog is a puller, an escape-artist, a bunny chaser or has any medical issues, you can still find a good dog harness for him.
How should you find the right dog harness?
Before you set out to buy a dog harness for your dog, measure your pet accurately. Measure your dog all the way to its chest, behind the front legs. This measurement will be required by the shopkeepers to avail you of the most fitting and comfortable dog harness. It is so because the manufacturers do not make the dog-gear by weight or breed, they need the measurements of the dog to make the dog harness.
Different styles of dog harness
A very popular dog harness is almost styled like human wear dickey which has chest coverage. The chest coverage distributes the pressure from leash across the chest of the dog instead of actually concentrating on the neck. These dog harnesses slip over the Fido’s head; one paw going in through the “armhole” with the strap being brought-up under tummy and properly clasped. There is plethora of other styles in dog harness styles and the materials used range widely from cotton, to leather and to polyester. You can find the dog harness that might be most suitable for your dog type at any local store that deals in dog accessories or any good online store where the purchase will be further easy.
