Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a harness fitted in person?
Yes. Please see our website for local stockists and the list of shows we attend.
Can my dog over heat in the Harness?
In our experience to date, we have had no reports of dogs over-heating whilst wearing our harness due to minimal body coverage.
Can I use my harness in the car?
Our Harness has not been crash tested so we do not recommend using it in the car.
Will the harness stop my dog from pulling?
Our harnesses are specifically designed to distribute the weight of the dog evenly over the harness – helping to reduce pulling, rubbing and friction. The feeling of security when wearing a soft, comfortable, well-fitted harness can encourage the dog to walk more calmly and in balance. This is often sufficient to encourage the dog not to pull as there are no more choking sensations around the throat or sharp edges rubbing against its skin. In addition, the front piece of the harness comes with an extra D-ring for more steering control, a helpful tool to use alongside positive reinforcement training.
Why can’t I use the front D ring on its own?
Using a front D-ring on its own can be unbalancing for your dog. Always use a double ended lead attached to the front and back D rings of the PerfectFit Harness. Use the front attachment to help steer your dog away from unwanted stimulus. Our front D-rings are not designed to be used on their own.
Is it worth getting my puppy fitted?
We recommend fitting puppies in our harness to avoid the vulnerable neck area and allow full front leg and shoulder movement for your puppies developing anatomy. Health, comfort and safety is paramount as your puppy explores the world for the first time.
What happens if I order the wrong size?
If your harness isn’t a Perfect Fit then we will send you alternative pieces to try for free. Once you are happy with a good fit you can then post back the pieces that you no longer need. We are happy to exchange or refund any products providing they are still in a saleable condition.
