Read Their Story

When it comes to dogs getting out and exploring with a harness on, a harness that fits well, moves well, and allows full range of motion is going to be key for comfort.

The Hi & Light™ Harness does just that with a minimal and lightweight design, a comfortable chest panel that allows their legs to move freely, adjustable straps, and sizes ranging from XXXS - L/XL.

There are reasons to have both in your dog's kit. A collar is essential for holding your dog's identification, license, and other tags. Dogs who aren't pullers can often walk on leash with just a collar.

For dogs that pull, harnesses tend to be more comfortable by decreasing pressure on their neck. Harnesses are also more secure and harder to back out.
