Why Choose an Adjustable Harness

By Allyson Westcot


There is a variety of different harnesses available to today's pet owner. Harnesses come in numerous sizes, materials and styles. Some are made for specific purposes, while some of the others are multi-purpose. Just like leashes, harnesses come in a great range of patterns and colors, with varying thicknesses and widths. The best dog harness for your pet may very well be an easy-fit adjustable one that will fit perfectly while remaining comfortable for your dog.

Even easily adjustable harnesses come in several size ranges so that you can choose the range that will be best for your dog. An easy-fit harness is likely one of the handiest types you should purchase. If a harness is tough to get on and a struggle to fit to your dog, it's less likely you'll ever to use it. A good, adaptable one should be easy to use and adjust for an ideal fit.

The ideally fitting harness is often snug enough to remain secure while you can still get two fingers between the harness straps and your pet. This keeps it from being tight and limiting, and doubtless rubbing or becoming uncomfortable.

You also should not have to give up your sense of style to have a convenient, easy to use dog harness. Look for additional touches like reflective thread used to create the harness. This keeps you and your dog safer at night, reflecting car lights so you're more easily noticed.

Neoprene providing a barrier between the chest strap and your dog can help in making the harness more comfy for your dog than a plain nylon strap or some other materials. And because an adjustable harness should be straightforward to put on and take off, there's no wrestling to get your pet in and out of it, making it something your dog might come to fear. Your pet will know when the harness goes on that it's time to have an adventure and head out the door.
