A Houdini Dog!
This should not be an issue you with your Walk Your Dog With Love dog harness. If it is, it can be solved in a second with a simple 'Scooch & Set'. See the video below for the details.
As the Dad of 5 dogs, that is one of my biggest fears, and exactly why - in addition to the pulling/control issues - I developed a Houdini proof harness for my pack.
Dogs worldwide (and even a few thousand very slinky cats), don't have any escape issues with Walk Your Dog With Love . . . as long as their humans follow the simple fitting adjustments.
Why do dogs escape harnesses?
Many dogs can easily ecscape a rear-attached harness. They usually 'back out' of them. We make this easy to do as we 'hold open the back door' - raising the back side of the harness for the dog to slip under. And because the dog's own weight is pulling them down, they just fold up their front legs . . . and they are free.
Some dogs can even escape a collar by slipping out backwards too!
They can also easily step out of the front of an Easy Walk front-leading dog harness because that harness rides very low to begin with, and then it loosens up while a dog is wearing it - not good!
What makes Walk Your Dog With Love so hard to escape?
Walk Your Dog With Love adjust in 360 degrees - so you can fit the harness exactly to your dog's particular body size AND shape. It not only adjusts for the chest and the belly, it also adjusts for width. No other harness does this. This means a dog of the same weight, yet a different shape (think a Bulldog and a Borzoi), can be fit in the same size harness.
And better yet, once the harness is adjusted, you can even tailor it exactly to the dog, like a custom-made suit (or strait jacket!).
And we definitely want your dog walking in a harness because collars and chokers are just not a safe, compassionate or friendly way to be walked. You can see why we say this here.
TO PREVENT HOUDINISM: Make sure to adjust the harness correctly and make sure you have the right size harness to begin with.
Fitting The Harness
Please take a moment to make sure the harness is a) adjusted correctly and b) put on your doggie correctly. Please watch the video below . . . even if you have seen it before.
It should fit approximately like it does on Teddy, the blond dog in the photo below
