Kurgo Journey Air Polyester Reflective No Pull Dog Harness

After trying a different harness when Nikumi was a little puppy my sister gave me this Kurgo as a hand-me-down. It was so perfect for my very active lab that I replaced it with the same when she grew out of that first one. We do long walks on and off leash, in and out of water. It holds up well to sand and doesn’t collect cockle burrs.

I SO wanted this harness to be a winner. My dog is very awkwardly shaped and it’s v-neck design fits him PERFECTLY. However, I use the front clasp because when my pup sees a deer or bunny, he tends to lunge. This is my second harness in about 2.5 months (thanks to Chewy’s great customer service) because the front clasp is cut so rigidly that it actually tears away at the fabric. This photo is the second one. The first was much more torn. Way too expensive for such a destructive design.

This harness is nice but I wish that it would have actually worked for us. The material is good and sturdy but the clasps are plastic and cheap and after using the harness for only 3 walks I can’t even use it anymore because the clasp broke and not it can’t hook it onto my dog. I’m upset because this seemed like the perfect harness but clearly it is unstable. It broke while I was buckling it onto my dog.

I highly recommend the Kurgo harness. My dog has chewed through several harnesses. This harness is designed in such a way she cannot chew it. She appears to be comfortable in this harness and has not attempted to stop me from putting it on her. A 5 star harness.

This is great for my Gracie! It fits perfect and doesn’t rub. She loves it too. She gets so excited when I put it on her cause she knows we are going for a walk!

Our 11 year old Lab Golden mix is bigger than most labs but still has that lab chest. We went with the Large based on the measurements and it fits her perfectly on the furthest out extensions. She was recently diagnosed with paralytic larynx so we quit using a collar on her altogether. She has always been a puller in stressful situations, so we thought this would work well. She has issues jumping in and out of our vehicles so we use the handle to aid in guiding her up the new stairs we just purchased for her, too. She got used to it within a day or 2 of wearing it and now when she sees us bring it out, she gets excited because she knows she is going "go somewhere". I just wish they had some fun Our 11 year old Lab Golden mix is bigger than most labs but still has that lab chest.

My cocker has always pulled on lead, but using this harness he is walking without pulling. This makes walking with him so much nicer.

My nephew has a big male shepard and it was difficult to walk him with a collar leash. This has made a world of difference and I can now even walk him.

Everything about this is fantastic EXCEPT the clip itself. The straps are padded nicely, it is very easy to put on and take off, it is comfortable for our dog. However, the clip is cheap plastic. Specifically, the "male" section of the clip that inserts into the other part is very, very thin. At a couple places, it is no bigger than a sharpened pencil lead. I imagine the design is to make it springy and easy to unclip. It does unclip easily, and it is springy, but it broke in less than three weeks of light use. The whole harness now, otherwise a fantastic item, is useless. For the price, the clip should be sturdier. Not sure how customer service does with returns/replacements.

It’s a lovely harness and we specifically got it because of the padding but it already is starting to fray where we clip the leash and we’ve only had it for about two months which is quite disappointing. I do love Kurgo harnesses and usually stick with the true fit which is fantastic but our girl seems to like this one, just wish it would hold up better for the price!
