Web Master™ Dog Harness with Handle

harness with neck buckle and handle

Color

Selected: Basalt Gray

The Web Master™ has been the trusted harness of avalanche rescue teams, service dog handlers, and conservation teams since its introduction as Ruffwear’s first harness. Proven over two decades in the field, it carries on a legacy of delivering durability and comfort without restricting movement – now with a front leash attachment point and a neck buckle to eliminate the over-the-head on/off experience for head-shy dogs.

The reinforced handle offers balanced lift and assist support for navigating technical terrain, while a perforated foam back panel provides breathable structure without adding bulk. Four points of adjustment means you can dial in a secure and comfortable fit for a wide range of body shapes. Rugged, reliable, and ready for your next adventure.

    Really secure and adjustable fit

    Great for making sure your dog is properly secured into a harness and has lots of adjustment as well. It did take several walks to 'dial in' the lengths of all the straps so they're just right - not too tight when our Golden sits, or too loose when he walks. But after that, it fits very well.

    If your dog is on the fence on sizing, I would suggest to size down. We went with Medium as our Golden was right on that 32" size and it could honestly fit even a 34-35".

    Strong, Escape proof and easy to clean!

    The only harness with the back strap I could get here in new zealand, It works great for my staffy x whippet with a deep chest and knack for pulling out on any other harnesses.

    It's very strong and although not easy to adjust (Which is a good thing) It fits super well, I did have to add in a stitch so the front pull worked without slipping but my girl is weird shaped.

    Really happy with it, Nice orange colour much brighter than expected but aye that's not terrible.

    Great Harness!

    The Ruffwear Web Master Harness is top-notch! It’s secure, durable, and gives great control without restricting movement. The padded support and lift handle are perfect for helping my dog over obstacles on hikes. It fits comfortably and stays in place, even on active dogs. A must-have for outdoor adventures or dogs who need a little extra support!

    Love this harness for our bendy, anxious pup

    This harness has been a treat on walks for our sound sensitive dog. He’s a hound mix with a big rib cage and is very bendy so he can slip most traditional harnesses. The added strap that sits right below his ribs ensures no Houdini-like escapes occur if he gets spooked by a passing truck or lawn crews at the park. Recent upgrades have been added - the chest piece is larger and connects to middle straps via heavily stitching rather than the straps attaching to a single triangular piece of plastic, the straps and clips are orange so even more visibility in the woods, and the extra loop on the chest piece helps for our pup who likes to pull gently redirecting his energy/momentum. Customer support even gave us a free replacement when the plastic triangle piece broke and had it shipped cross country in under two days. Cheers to ruffwear, Thunder and his hoomans appreciate it.

    Saved my dogs life more than once

    I’ve been using a version of this harness for over 12 years. I originally bought it in 2013 for my dog Winston, who as a puppy had a habit of slipping out of every other harness. This one kept him safely secured—and likely saved his life more than once by preventing him from running into traffic.

    The handle, in particular, has been a lifesaver. I once used it to quickly lift Winston out of harm’s way when an aggressive dog approached. Later in his life, when he began losing his vision and the Minnesota winters made walking treacherous, the handle became essential. I used it to carry him out to his potty spot and back inside again—he trusted the process so much, he’d wait for me to lift him.

    Winston has since passed (RIP), but the original Webmaster harness I bought for him is still in use with our other dogs. I now have four or five of these harnesses scattered around the house—each one more than six years old, showing wear but still holding up perfectly.

    I’ve recommended this harness to so many people. While some hesitate because of the price, to me, it’s simple: I’d rather invest in quality than risk my dog’s safety. This harness has proven its value again and again. I am now back to get another one for my puppy even though we could probably just use what we have- it feels like a right of passage he gets his own Webmaster. All of my dogs have been Boston Terriers of slightly different weights/builds and the XS has fit them all great.
