Can I use this harness for all types of dogs?
The harness is suitable for most dogs. However, consider your dog's specific needs, such as pulling behavior, size, and activity level, when choosing a harness.
What if my dog is between sizes?
If your dog is between sizes, it is recommended to size up. This will help prevent discomfort and ensure a more comfortable fit.

What materials is the harness made of?

Troubleshooting
Harness seems too tight.
Loosen the adjustable straps. Ensure the harness is properly sized for your dog's chest circumference. If the issue persists, consider a larger size.
Harness is rubbing or causing discomfort.
Check the fit. Re-adjust the straps for a more comfortable fit. Ensure the harness is not too tight. Make sure the dog's fur isn't getting caught.
The front clip does not redirect pulling effectively.
Consider incorporating positive reinforcement training techniques to teach your dog not to pull while using the harness. Some dogs may require additional training for effective redirection.
Reflective trim is not as visible as expected.
Ensure the reflective material is clean and free of dirt or debris. In extremely low-light situations, consider supplementing with a light attached to the harness light loop.
