    Loving this Running Vest!!

    Love this running vest! I was using a Gentle Leader when running with my big ole dog, which she hated. Tried this Running Vest and she is so much better controlled and HAPPIER! Thank you, Ruffwear!

    Excellent customer service and product.

    Great fit--my dog was at the border between two sizes. Ruffwear was very helpful in ensuring that I purchased the proper size. My dog loves it.

    Just what we needed

    After running into difficulty with other harnesses, I was looking for something safer for when I cross country skii/run/hike with our pup. This fits him perfectly and he loves carrying his own things! The material is great for having a supper fluff too! All around great high activity pack!

    Appeased our picky husky

    Our husky used to hide when we took out the harness, so we decided to spend more and try a ruffwear harness as we love to go hiking with him. So far he isn't fighting us with this harness and seems much more comfortable with it. We seem to have found a winner with this harness as we have enjoyed watching him smile at us versus giving us angry glares while wearing his harness. I just wish it had a handle so we can help him more easily on tricky trails.
