Harness

[SHERRY FERRIN]

Does anyone know where to get a good harness for a 75lb labradoodle?  I want one of the ones that is soft and kind of cushioned.  Thanks

Is this for car rides or walks or pulling something?

Camus is 82 lbs. and I use the Easy Walk harness for both walking and as a car harness.  It is not padded, however it keeps him safe in the car and eliminates pulling while walking (we continue to work on "heel" command, so I hope to be able to walk him in a standard leather collar soon).  The harness slips on over his head and can be used with loop in front for walking or on his back as a car harness.  Only down side is that it is not padded.

I also use the Easy Walk harness the same way. Jackdoodle currently weighs 85 lbs, but I've used the same harness through weight fluctuations of 65-90 lbs.

I use the Easy Walk for walking

 use the Kurgo harness for in the car - as it is one of the few harnesses that is actually crash tested. It can be used for walking too if your dog is not a puller (for that i recommend the easy walk)

I have a Kong Harness for Oliver, its awesome, very sturdy (Ollies is 80 lbs) it also has a soft handle thing on it which is right on the back.  Its great because when I am walking Ollile and I need him to stay close I just grab the handle :)  I got my Kong Harness in Pet Smart on line.  It was less expensive on line than in the store.

Stuart (70 some lbs) uses an American Tourister harness for in the car - it fully covers the chest area and it meant to keep the pet secured inside the vehicle during a crash.  For walking we use an Easy Walk Harness.  A "tween" size that we had to order from the company as most stores only carry the regular sizes but specialty stores might have it.  A medium was too small - a large too big - the tween was just right.
