Want to Keep Your Dog From Pulling on a Walk? Try This

Walking your dog doesn't have to be a chore. It should be a pleasurable experience. But it ends up being more work than it's worth because the dog pulls constantly. If that's a familiar story, you need to try out this harness. It'll make walking your dog actually fun and beneficial again.

That was my beagle. People in the neighborhood thought it was pretty cool that we taught our dog to walk on two legs. Obviously, that wasn't the intention. Then we came across the Yuppie Puppy Anti-Pull harness, and we saw improvement pretty much from the first time it came out of the box. The harness has a number of benefits.

First and foremost, this is the only harness we've used, or found for that matter, that comes with an endorsement from the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Many harnesses either choke the dog or else the straps cut into the skin. This one does neither, and that's why the ASPCA endorses it.

Next, it's super easy to get it on and off the dog. Have you ever seen a harness that was so complicated, you needed an engineering degree to figure it out? Me too.

Third, it is guaranteed to control pulling without choking. The only downside is that there's a buckle that rubs against the chest. You may notice that it causes a little irritation, but it's not a big deal.

Next, the harness gives your dog extra comfort with the padded sherpa sleeves that fit snugly under the legs. Most other harnesses are unpadded, and the straps can cut the skin, depending upon where they fit and how severe a puller your dog is.

Fifth, you can choose from more than one color. If this is important to you, you can pick black or red. Not a big deal, but the option is available to you if that's a significant factor.

We have a beagle that's always eager for a walk. We're still working with her on her walking techniques, but this harness has helped from day one. I recommend it highly.
