This no-pull harness by Rabbitgoo is designed for breeds all sizes and features a simple design that makes it easy to put the harness on and take it off. It’s also made from a type of durable, thick material that can survive even the toughest dog. This fully adjustable harness allows you to achieve the perfect fit, so you won’t have to worry about chafing or your dog slipping the harness the minute he sees the neighbor’s cat.
When your dog begins to pull you, simply correct them by pulling back on the leash, which will cause your dog to partially turn, moving right into you, instead of simply causing them to struggle against your strength and continue to pull you. The harness is also highly adjustable, so you can easily adjust the harness for the perfect fit. This particular model is designed for medium-size dogs and features an easy overhead design that allows you to quickly put the harness on in a matter of seconds.
Overview and Features
If you’re looking for a solution to your dog pulling you along each day on your walk around the neighborhood, then Rabbitgoo has the perfect solution. Most harnesses you’ll come across on the market feature a clip located on the upper back. Unfortunately, this design style allows your dog to use his shoulder and upper back strength to pull you along.
This particular model is one of the best no-pull dog harnesses, designed specifically to give you more control over your pet when you’re walking, preventing him from pulling you along for the ride. The key here is in the leash attachment placement. Instead of attaching the leash to the D-ring located on the back, the leash attaches to a D-ring located on the dog’s chest. With this design, if your dog begins to pull you, you’ll simply pull back on the leash, causing the dog to turn into you, which is an effective way to correct them and cause them to immediately slow their pace.
If you’re a new dog owner and you don’t have the money needed to pay for expensive obedience training lessons, then this harness is a step in the right direction and one that will give you and your dog a safer more effective alternative to harmful choke chains and prong collars.

Size Options
The harness is specifically designed for medium-sized breeds, although it does come in four size options total. This model will work for dogs that have a neck measuring in at a little over fourteen and a half inches up to nineteen and a half inches. For the chest, the harness will work for a chest measurement ranging from nineteen inches up to twenty-nine inches. Make sure you measure your dog carefully before ordering. While the small to large size options can be confusing, the key here is to measure. This harness isn’t recommended for toy breeds or extra-large breeds, such as Great Danes.
No Choke Design
Pet owners who want to exercise their dogs daily, but struggle with gaining control over their pet when they’re out of the house often turn to choke collars or prong collars, both of which have been deemed inhumane, but why? When you use a choke chain, you’re basically cutting off your pet’s air supply in an attempt to correct them and cause them to slow down to prevent this lack of oxygen. But eager pups, or muscular dogs, usually don’t get the message, so they’ll keep on going, despite the fact that it’s difficult for them to breathe. It’s the same for prong collars, except, you’ve now thrown uncomfortable prongs into the mix, so now they’re struggling to breathe and have an unusual amount of painful pressure applied to the trachea, in addition to prongs poking into the delicate skin of their neck.
As you can see, both options aren’t exactly comfortable for your pet, and for most dogs, they’re just not effective. If you’ve used either type of collar, you may hear your dog hacking and gagging as you struggling to keep them at your pace. Both signs indicate your dog is in distress. This model features a two-metal leash ring design that allows you to safely walk your dog. You’ll use the chest attachment ring to prevent your dog from pulling you on your walk. The back ring is perfect for casual walks, once your dog is trained to walk loose leash.
Ease of Use
Many pet owners avoid using a harness simply because they can be difficult to put on their pet, especially for those who are dealing with large, eager pups who refuse to sit still once they see their leash. However, this simple design allows you to quickly put on the harness, thanks to the overhead design, complete with a couple of fast-release buckles. To put the harness on, all you have to do is slide the harness over your dog’s head, snap the buckle in place, and adjust the straps. The harness is also equipped with a large top handle, which will give you even more control, should you come across another dog or a stray cat that crosses your pet’s path.
Adjustability
This harness is fully adjustable, thanks to the four easy to adjust straps. Use the two chest straps and two neck straps to achieve the perfect fit for your pet. The highly adjustable design also makes this model a great choice for growing dogs, since it allows plenty of room for growth, so you won’t have to purchase an additional harness, should your dog hit a growth spurt.
If you’re not sure you’ve adjusted the straps correctly, have your dog walk around the yard wearing their new harness to determine if they’re able to slip the harness, or if the harness is too tight.
Safe to Use
Both you and your pet will look forward to your daily walks using this harness. This model is padded with plenty of cushioning, designed to protect your dog’s delicate skin, while the nylon oxford material that’s used for the straps, ensures the harness will last and won’t tear or fray. The large, breathable mesh panel will keep your dog nice and cool during warm weather. If you normally walk your dog in the evening, then you’ll appreciate the bright reflective strips, which will make your dog highly visible in low light conditions.

Rabbitgoo Versus TIANYAO Dog Harness
The competing harness by Tianyao is specifically designed for large breed dogs and comes with many of the same features as this harness by Rabbitgoo. However, while this model is perfect for medium-sized breeds, such as pit bulls, the competing harness works well for huskies, German shepherds, and golden retrievers. Both models are made out of material that’s durable and able to withstand even the most rambunctious dogs.
The harness you choose should be based on your dog’s measurements and breed. So, before you hit that buy now button, make sure you carefully measure your pup’s neck and chest girth to determine which harness will work the best for your dog.
