The Best Dog Harness for Hiking: Get The Best Experience, While
Protecting Your Dog
Have you ever tried to use a dog harness? Maybe, maybe not. If you have, then you must have
experienced this awesome control over your dog. If you haven’t, then no need to worry still. You’ve
got to learn much concerning the beauty of a dog harness. Its advantages and what edge it has over
a leash or a collar.
The elemental reason for using a dog harness is twofold. One, it will enable you have fun and lots of
ease when handling your dog. And secondly, it will ensure that your dog do not pick up tracheal or
neck injuries. In addition, your dog is more likely to like the harness than he would a leash, since he
would easily associate it with a wonderful experience of going out with someone they are used to.
While harness is a good gear to help you train your dog on good leash behaviour, not all the harness
in the market are good. Some may inflict injuries on your dog. For such reasons, it goes without say
that you must be selective. If you must have a harness for your dog, then you must have the best.
Here we shall outline to you what important features to look for, and factors to consider in your
choice.
There are various benefits that result from the use of a harness. These benefits are as varied as there
are the different models of dog harnesses. Some of the benefits are as outlined below:
❖ Safety of both the dog and the handler
If you are using a leash, it is possible to pick some injuries from an aggressive dog. Especially those
muscular strong dogs, which may whirl around and perhaps twist your fingers when they are
excited. A harness may also be used to secure the dog to the seat of the car, while driving. In case of
an accident, the dog remain secure to the seat and is thus safe.
❖ Easy control during a trip
Using a harness will reduce the efforts that you employ in controlling your dog. You will expend very
little effort in taking charge of the dog when you are on a trip with her. The dog will not pull you to
her desired direction, but rather follow you to wherever you lead her. This in return results to no
possibility of accident since you are in control.
❖ Provide support for aged and injured dogs
Harnesses are also made to help an injured or aged dog with movement. If a dog is injured, or
incapacitated in any way, you can still support her with her movements. There are designed
harnesses that will enable you lift the body of the dog up and about obstacles without causing her
more harm. Thus by such a harness you can help your dog recover from the injuries or cope with the
old age.
❖ Help the dog maintain a good health on the neck
The pressure usually applied on the neck of the dog by the leash is reduced. The can then go without
picking an injury on the neck or even a tracheal injury. This makes your dog happy and effective in
her life.
Factors to consider when settling on a harness

Personally I would desire to have the best harness for my dog. Wouldn’t you? I guess you definitely
would. And that’s why I have decided to outline here below those crucial factors to consider before
you buy one.
✓ The Size of your dog
Not any harness would fit just any dog out there. Your dog should be comfortable in the harness.
She must not be in an undersized harness. And it must also not be oversized. This may cause her
injury, should the harness be too loose. Get her the right size: probably a slightly larger one that you
may adjust to fit her.
✓ Ease and Comfort for the dog
If you should train your dog in a nice enjoyable way, then you must make her comfortable in her
training gear. You wouldn’t like a training where your dog got pinched and chaffed on the skin. Or
would you? Most probably no. I wouldn’t either. Neither would your dog. And so you must just get it
right in making the training and walk enjoyable for yourself and the dog.
✓ Durability of the harness
More often the strength of the harness is determined by the behaviour of the dog. Some dogs are
bigger and stronger than others. The stronger dogs will wear out the harness easily than those with
lesser strength. The materials used also vary in strength, and some are more durable than others.
✓ The activities for which the harness is to be used
You can take your dog to various places. You can just take a walk with her. Or you can even take her
to swim. If you plan taking your dog for a swim in her brand new harness then you must consider
buying a breathable and flexible harness. If all you need is have a walk with your dog, then such
things as breathability and flexibility should not be your worry. Also ensure that the harness is light
for the dog.
