PetSafe Easy Walk Dog Harness

We tried with one pup—blue tick hound—and it never stayed in place, so we flipped chest to back, shoulder to belly, and belly belly to chest. Luckily, we didn’t need it long. Years later we tried with our Husky and same problem. The chest alway slides down and doesn’t stay in place and she’s a tad bigger than our hound. In order for it to work at all we stand with the leash on one side, with the leash attached to the harness coming from the opposite side. So it manages to somewhat work only in the upward pull motion and not from the chest as it’s designed to do. Biggest problem is that the straps extend during the walk so I constantly have to adjust them to fit the way the instructions say.

We have a pup that gets super excited, we have had her to training and when excited still pulls..This harness was recommended by our trainer and immediately after putting on (kind of challenging to figure out at first) my pup was comfortable and NOT PULLING!!! This harness distributes the pull and allows your dog to keep it's head UP instead of the pull down of over the nose leads. It looks like it would not do the trick, just 3 straps, but it's a miracle worker!!!! Our pup doesn't mind it, and she seems to feel 'off leash' when she wears it. Nice steady walks..except for the occasional squirrel which is now a minimal pull. WELL WORTH IT!!!!

I've been trying to work with a new puppy to get her to walk with me on rural roads. She has been afraid of any traffic that passes, and, when she does get frightened, she tries to pull ahead to get back to her yard as soon as possible. The Easy Walk Harness has worked mostly as advertised. Through most of our walks, she heels as she should with only occasional reminders. She does, however, when frightened by a loud vehicle, still try to pull ahead, but the harness and reminders from me does reduce that behavior, and, with continued work on my part, she continues to make progress.

I love this item because it is lightweight, easy to adjust and very simple to slip on my dog. SHE doesn't love it so much because IT WORKS! It fits her comfortably, it does NOT chafe--but, she just doesn't pull when she's wearing it! I think she's mad at me because she's not getting her own way! LOL Meanwhile, we've been able to extend our walks because she's not pulling on me and wearing me out. I'm 69 years old with a bad back--pulling is not something I can handle. Thanks to the genius that came up with this!

I purchased this for walking my 1 yr. old male collie, who is so excited to see the world, and that was NOT FUN for my body, or for his throat though he didn't seem to mind. Day One with this harness, and presto change-o! Walks are pleasant for both of us again. It gives him just enough reminder. I would not leave it on all day, or in the car as he can slip his lower jaw into the martingale at the front. It comes off easily, but I would not leave him unattended with it on. I LOVE how the different pieces are labeled as to where they go as harnesses can be confusing especially for a backup walker!

I’ve been bragging about this harness to everyone I’ve come into contact with this past week so thought I’d share here too! I basically gave up trying to leash train my 45lb pit bull. This harness is the first thing I’ve tried that WORKS. And she loves it. Super easy to put on and adjust. Instructions were very clear. No more pulling and now long walks with my pup are something we can BOTH look forward to

We purchased a PetSafe Gentle Leader which works very well, but we wanted a harness we could leave on at the dog park. We started noticing a lot of other dogs were wearing the Easy Walk harness ALSO by PetSafe. The other dog parents all highly recommended it. It doesn't control as well as the Gentle, but works well enough AND we can leave it on.

Looks good, read good, Poor Design I need to stop buying things like this at Chewy. Need to be able to try them on in the store or somewhere where I can see what it looks like one. I measured my dog exactly and this should fit like a glove. But instead it seems to hang in down on her front paws and when I look at the box that is exactly how they show it. My dog hates it, keeps wanting to bite the strap in front. Refuses to walk with it. Prefers the choker. If I were going to buy something like this again, I think I would look for one that went around the neck, then a strap down the chest and another the went around the waist, so there is nothing in front.

I purchased a size small for my 20 lb puppy. The picture online looked durable enough, however when I received the item it looked very cheap. Straps were much narrower than the picture (the picture shows bigger dogs and I later realized that the straps were narrower and clips smaller for small size). My dog may be small but she is pretty strong so I wasn't going to take a risk of her breaking and running off with it. I am returning this for sure.

I have a crazy lab mix named Lucy. When I say she is crazy, I mean it. I refused to take her on walks because it was such a disaster. I have tried easy walk before and loved it so I thought I would give it another shot. Sure enough it works! After a few minutes and non-graceful walking she was able to figure it out!
