Your Choice of Front Attach Harness or Back Attach Harness
A Front Range Harness can mean the difference between keeping your arm comfortably in your shoulder socket or not. Ha! Anyway, if you have a dog who pulls this is a great option for sorting that problem quick smart. It's also just a fabulous everyday harness that's easy to fit and put on, well padded and super comfortable for your dog to wear.
The Ruffwear Front Range Harness is comfy for your dog, quick to fit and put on and versatile. You can attach your leash traditionally via an aluminum V-ring centered on the dog's back for everyday walks or you can attach it to the reinforced webbing at the dog's chest for training or additional control.
What happens when you attach a leash to the front of your dog’s harness rather than the top? Well, as your dog pulls the pressure on the front of his chest will cause him to turn around back toward you. Is that what he was intending? Nope. Essentially pulling will deter your dog from getting closer to what he wants without causing any pain or discomfort to your dog. Magic! Pulling is no longer an effective means for your dog to get what he wants.
We’ve been looking for the right front-attach harness to add to our range for a while now and couldn’t be happier to greet this new product from Ruffwear, a brand we couldn't trust more.
A great little addition is the ID pocket at the top which can hold your dog's tags, keeping them quiet and easily accessible. A fantastic alternative for dog's that don't like to wear collar!

Bought this harness when we were told to get a front-clip harness for "polite walking class" -- I never wound up using that feature, but it's been ideal for our hikes ... super comfy, easy to put on, and looks great in purple. Sizing was a little tricky to figure out -- at 8kg, I was surprised Charlie is in a 2XS, but we tried on our friends' XSes and they were definitely too big.

I have mixed feelings about this harness - I did not realize it had to be slipped over my dog's head every time we put it on or off (he doesn't like it) Although the materials and construction are good the design is not as effective as it could be - the principle of the front attach harness is that it turns the dog when they pull but it really turns the harness more than it turns the dog. However, although it does not succeed in turning my dog towards me when he pulls it does reduce his pulling - he can pull in this harness but his pulling does not become increasingly harder and faster. It might be alright but my trainer doesn't like it and wants me to get the strap type of front attach harness. My dog certainly doesn't want to keep having it hauled over his head every day, and it gets wet when he swims and takes quite a while to come dry.

The quality is superb and the product is as described. It is my dogs issue that she is has a longer body compared to her diameter. I have only been walking with a few of times. I find the front a bit loose while the back is perfect. My dog is always between sizes and I haven't put in the time yet to work out how to make it fit perfectly.

This is a great harness; its easy to fit and having the duel lead attachments makes walking, running, cycling & get in & out of the car a breeze.

Great harness that is really strong. Our young American Staffy walks and runs happily by my side and the 2 attachment points come in really handy if a possum crosses our tracks. It's easy to fit and put on and off.

I purchased this item to stop my young Miniature Poodle pulling on the lead. Another similar product "No- Pull Harness' worked well before Claude (poodle) chewed it. That one tightened around the front legs which deterred the pulling. The Ruffware appears to have no deterrent at all.

Easy to fit and put on. Gives more freedom of movement then previous harness’s.The smallest one even fits our 3.5 kg mini Foxie cross. I love that it has a pocket for their I’d. Meaning there is no need for a collar. So far our escape artist hasn’t been able to slip out of it.Would definitely recommend them.

The dog is perfectly happy wearing this harness and she waits for it to be fitted. The harness works well in both connections. Very pleased with my purchase

Love this harness XS and I think my 5 month old mini schnauzer does to. Easy to put on, easy adjustable straps. Back clip on and front clip on areas. We travel a lot in a caravan. Ruffwear harness is great for travelling in the car, puppy sleeps comfortably in harness out of the car walking her around, you can see by the freedom of her movement she is comfortable. Very well made lot of thought gone into harness with reflective strip, ID tag area.
