I have a six month old Doberman named Scout, and this harness is perfect for her! I initially got it because I needed a harness to clip to a seatbelt leash. She was about three months old when I first got it, and I wanted to make sure it wouldn’t put pressure on her neck or hurt her if the car stopped suddenly. The design of the front piece is perfect for this, there’s never any pressure on her neck when there’s tension on the back clip. It’s a perfect everyday harness as well, very sturdy and she’s super comfortable in it. She often wears it for most of the day when she’s at doggy daycare and never seems to mind it. The adjustable front and back straps have made it very easy to keep the fit right as she’s grown up.
I don’t use the front clip because Scout is very strong and I’m concerned the fabric will tear, but the metal clip on the back is well attached and sturdy. The little pouch for an ID tag is great, and something I’ve not seen on other harnesses. The strap for a light is very useful too. I use a little clip on light I got from Target in a two pack for my car keys, and that + the reflective lines makes her super easy to see at night.
I really can’t recommend this harness enough, especially if you have a dog with proportions that don’t always match with most harnesses.
