Julius-K9, 16IDC-BE-B1, IDC Powerharness, dog harness, Size: Baby 1, Beige

These harnesses are very well made and I have seen lots of dogs wearing them so I decided to purchase two of them for my Daschunds. Seeing as on the size guide there is a Daschund for reference on the size “mini mini” I was confident that these would be suitable for them. Obviously. However I do not believe these harnesses are okay for the shape of sausage dogs. I fitted the harnesses as per the video online and gave them a try for a week or so. After a little while my dogs where not keen to walk and I was very worried that there was something wrong with them. However, as I have got home I have realised that the buckle clip on the harness has actually dug into the arm of my dog and caused bleeding. Now, before anyone points the finger at me for not realising sooner - the harness doesn’t appear to be causing any discomfort at the beginning and I was only made aware due to the bleeding. So it must have been rubbing for quite some time before hand to cause a wound. Dogs can’t speak to you and explain if something is hurting and I am extremely careful to be gentle with them. I was not to know until the wound occurred. It didn’t even appear to be knocking when they walked. Daschunds elbow bones are quite pronounced and I don’t believe the placement of the buckle is at all suitable for them. I am absolutely devastated that these have caused pain to my pups and would absolutely NOT recommend these to Daschund owners.

The item arrived on time and was well packaged and even had a small information booklet too. Now to the MAIN points of this harness for me! Without being dramatic, or saying this lightly, this item has changed my life!! I have arthritis in my spine and both of my hands (thumbs mainly) and walking my 5 year old Staffie cross was almost impossible for me because she used to pull on the lead. When I first put it on her she was almost "magically" transformed - it seemed to calm her instantly.When my back allows me to walk her (I aim for twice a day) she is like a different dog. She doesn't want to run off all the time, is happy to walk to heel, but most importantly SHE DOESN'T PULL ME!! All in all a perfect purchase and I wish I'd done it years ago. It was easy to fit on her (over her head), and the adjustments (chest and belly) were very simply to adjust to get the perfect fit. SHE may not know she's got it on when she's walking but I CERTAINLY do - and it doesn't slow her running down either. If you have a dog that takes YOU for a walk/trot/drag then try this harness today!! THANK YOU!!

Tried so many harnesses before & our dog has managed to escape them - but this is fantastic, not only does it allow us to walk a dog that's reactive (due to being attacked by 3 small dogs separately off lead) but the handle helps us to have added control with any situation that now arises when we meet another dog. Had given up walking my GSD until I saw this harness & now I'm confident when walking my dog in any situation so worth the price & 5*'s. He will always be reactive even after various types of training but he will always be able to have walks now. Highly recommend this product.

My Border Collie is about 19kg and from working stock so is a skinny athletic dog - he wears the Size 0. He loves being off the lead but is a puller when on it. I have used a Halti on previous dogs but have seen a lot of dogs wearing harnesses so decided to give it a go. He wasn't bothered about wearing it as he has a car harness but the first time he got giddy about going out for a walk he backed right out of it and I was left with a harness on the end of the lead and a dog sat looking at me wearing nothing! Luckily we were in the drive and not on the street or we would have been in trouble. Prior to buying it I had read that this could happen but could be resolved be buying the Y strap that slides onto the chest strap. As soon as I did this and refitted the harness it is perfect. If your dog has a habit of backing out of situations he is uncomfortable in i would wholly recommend paying a little extra and getting the Y strap. He wears it no problem, walks a lot more calmly and now can't back out of it. It seems very sturdy and well made and is saving my arms from a lot of pulling!

Was looking for a durable harness for my dog, a 40kg labradoodle. I've seen plenty of people with a Julius K9 harness, but wasn't sure if it was worth the extra money.After purchasing, I can say that it was.The adjustable neck and chest straps make it truly comfortable - top tip here is to spend a good amount of time setting it up initially. Once done, the long velcro holding means that it won't budge, so you'll only need to re-adjust if dog changes weight/shape.Once I started using with him, he stopped pulling and it now makes walking more enjoyable again. (And my elbow doesn't hurt anymore).I also really like the handle,as it gives me extra control in close confine areas, or meeting unfamiliar dogs etc.I can't comment on durability yet, but am hoping this is where the reputation of the brand holds up.As a new reviewer to Amazon I would appreciate if you could mark this as helpful or not so that I can improve my reviews

My dog is what we call ‘free range’ he likes to be off lead and does not like wearing a harness. However, when he is outside of our home he needs one for his own safety to walk to park.We have started using the K9 harness recently and he really doesn’t seem to mind it. It’s very simple to put on him with no fuss, it was very easy to adjust to fit him. I think the best thing about this harness is it does not rub under the dogs legs like conventional harness’ do and there is much more adjustment for his neck floof.I would recomend! The handle is very useful for picking the dog up quickly and he doesn’t seem to mind. It has come in useful in one situation where a large dog was bothering him.
