The area around a dog’s throat is one of the most vulnerable yet is often an overlooked part of a dog’s anatomy. Pressure from a collar and lead can restrict blood flow and neural pathways and cause or exacerbate many physical conditions including:
Eye problems caused by Intraocular eye pressure
Collapsed Trachea
Syringomyelia
Brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome
Sensitive throats (e.g. after Kennel cough)
Thyroid disorder
A collar or lead can also inhibit recovery following surgery.
Pain or discomfort in any form increases arousal levels and can have a direct impact on your dog’s emotional state and therefore, their behaviour.

"It took me years to find the Perfect Fit Harness and I am so happy I did! The harness definitely stands up to its name as it is beautifully made and fits dogs of any size and shape perfectly. Based on my 30 years in veterinary practice, I believe that using a harness instead of a collar will keep your dog healthy and injury-free. Good health and longevity starts with the Perfect Fit!"
Dash has been wearing perfect fit for 2 years now, she is a very nervous dog when walking in the streets and she is noticeably more confident since wearing the Perfect Fit.

You really do get what you pay for! This is hands down the best harness we’ve ever had and we’ve tried most of them out there. The added bonus that it is fully machine washable which is perfect for water loving mud monsters like Willow.

Perfect Fit was recommended by our breeder and we've passed on that recommendation many, many times. The harness really is a 'perfect fit' that doesn't restrict movement in any way, it hasn't caused any matting of our girl's super curly coat and it's very cost effective to be able to replace individual parts. When I've called for sizing advice customer service was amazing. We wouldn't change to anything else.

The difference in Rigby’s demeanour when putting the Perfect Fit harness on is huge, there’s no shying away, he’s actually excited to put it on! It’s also had a positive impact on his stress levels while out walking because he’s now not stressed before leaving the house. The harness coupled with his reactive training has made such an improvement to his quality of life and it’s only been a matter of weeks. I honestly wish I’d found this harness sooner.

When we got our puppy she was very nervous and scared. She developed a phobia of having anything over her head and became scared of her harness. When we found the perfect fit harness and it went around her neck it was a game changer for us and her
Joanne Moffatt
The harness has been through rough times, sea water, mud, sand, river water, tugging dogs, washing machines, and everything the girl's throw at them and they are still in great shape

FAQ - 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.
