dog harness no pull
 Can you suggest a good harness? I have a Siberian husky mix who is roughly 35 pounds. No, ironically enough, I am not looking for a "no-pull" harness. My dog is decently leash trained. I am looking for one that she could wear to go jogging with me or to even pull something like a kid's wagon with. I've checked out Petsmart.com and such, but I don't know what type is best. Any reccommendations? If you want her to pull *any* kind of load, a regular walking harness from a pet supply store isn't going to do the trick - at least not without possibly injuring her. Check out the links in the various answers to this question: You can usually find a decent recreational harness for a relatively low price. |

Stop Your Dog From Pulling on A Leash
If you are a dog owner that struggles with stopping your dog from pulling and tugging on his or her leash while walking then you are not alone. Many owners make a great effort to stop this uncontrollable behavior trying everything in their training arsenal with no luck. They find themselves avoiding people along the walk by crossing the street or waiting for them to turn the corner before continuing the battle. Rest assured every dog owner goes through the same thing at one point or another it’s just that some dog owners are more experienced, some dog breeds learn better, but you too can teach your dog how to walk on a leash.
One of the most popular purchases a dog owner makes is an investment in a dog collar. They buy two types, a collar for their dogs’ tags and a choke collar for training, or least the hope of training. While having a dog collar for tags is necessary as most states require dog tags a choke collar may not be the right solution for the inexperienced dog owner.
Choke collars, if not properly placed on your dog can actually damage their throat especially if your dog continues to pull and tug on the leash. Regardless of the size dog from small dog to large dog all are susceptible. Moving to a dog harness for walking is your best and safest option for correcting this bad behavior.
Dog harnesses come in a variety styles and finding the right one to solve your dilemma can seem confusing. Not just any dog harness will work for teaching your dog to walk properly on a leash. For example, a dog harness where the leash attaches at the top of your dog’s back will offer no help as your dog feels only the resistance from you as you try to pull him or her back. The dog simply rears up and if they are stronger than you, off you both go running down the street chasing what it is your dog is after.
The dog harness we recommend is a “no-pull” or “stop pull” dog harness. With this type of harness, the dog leash attaches in the front at the chest level. When your dog pulls and tries to take-off the harness zaps the strength from his/her front legs making it almost impossible for them to do anything but walk.
The product that we found offering the easiest to put-on, needing no acclimating before use called “Sense-ation” No-Pull dog harness is the best choice for the seemingly uncontrollable dog. This harness comes in a variety of sizes to fit your particular dog breed and an easy how-to instruction book. The results will be immediate from the very first use.
While a no-pull dog harness, will solve your dog leash training troubles they are not for every dog-training lesson you will teach. There will always be a place for a traditional collar for hanging your dogs’ tags and training collar for all of the other dog obedience training sessions you will have. However, for those dog owners with a pooch that cannot seem to walk properly a no-pull dog harness is the safest and fastest way to teach this obedience lesson.
