Best Dog Halter Harnesses of 2025

"I bought this for my one-year-old Anatolian Mix who pulls excessively. After ordering a medium/large, it fits perfectly and has reduced her pulling by 90%! I highly recommend it!"

"I don’t usually write reviews, but I have to say this harness is a game-changer for my 72lb golden-lab mix. The medium size fits him perfectly, and he seems so much happier and easier to walk. It’s totally worth a try!"

"I've tried countless harnesses for my 75lb pitbull/boxer mix. This one has made a huge difference in his pulling and escaping. It's been over six months and he hasn't escaped. I wish I had this earlier!"

"For Angus, this harness is a game changer. It has completely transformed our walks, removing the fear reactions and pulling that used to make them stressful. I now look forward to taking him out!"

"I can't emphasize enough how much I love this harness. Angus is not just happier wearing it, but he's also more socialized during our walks. Every dog owner needs one of these!"

"I've been pleasantly surprised by how well this harness works. It alleviates pulling and has made walking Angus a much more enjoyable experience for both of us. This harness truly is one of a kind!"

"I absolutely loved this harness! It was so beautiful, but unfortunately, I had to return it because it was too large for my dog. I take full responsibility for that since I didn't measure my dog first. The quality is great, it works well, and it's a good value for the money. I'm planning to buy another one just like it."

"I was excited to try this as our first front clip harness. However, I struggled to get the sizing right. I must have adjusted it over 10 times. While it was well made, it rubbed on my dog's front 'armpits' when I finally got the fit right. I still gave it 4 stars because I believe it could work for others. The quality is definitely good."

"I really appreciated the easy one clip design of this harness. We used to keep a regular harness on our dog all the time, but now we can easily remove it while still connected to the leash, and our dog loves being 'naked'. I ordered XS based on the size guide, but it barely fit my mini poodle. Trust the measurement size table! Overall, it’s a quality product."

"I've been using the HALTI No Pull Harness for my medium-sized dog, and it's been a game changer for our walks. It immediately reduces my dog's pulling, making our walks much more enjoyable. The lightweight design is great; my dog doesn't feel burdened."

"I don't often write reviews, but this harness was a LIFESAVER. My dog has fear aggression, and the Halti harness is so much easier to put on—no snaps, no buckles. It feels more comfortable, and I can take her on long hikes without worrying about chafing."

"My Pitbull mix is a relentless puller, and this harness was the first that actually stopped her pulling. The very first attempt to pull with it on had her slowing down and walking calmly. I am thrilled and now look forward to our walks!"

"I have a tiny Yorkie and struggled to find a harness that wasn't bulky. I love this one because it's small, cute, and sleek. It’s my favorite of all his harnesses. It’s sturdy and easy to put on and take off, unlike others that get twisted."

"As a service dog in training, my Yorkie needed a lightweight harness for summer. I chose this step-in harness due to its adjustability and safety features. It fits my 14-pound Yorkie well, and I feel secure knowing she can’t slip out. We used it for five days in the mountains without any issues."

"I ordered this harness for my toy poodle last year, and it was great. So when I took in another small dog, I went for the same brand. The extra small size is perfect for dogs between 4.5lbs-6lbs. It's lightweight and easy to adjust, especially for warmer months. I've always been happy with this company's products."

"My dog dislikes harnesses, but this one is lightweight and helped her adjust. The sizing was accurate once I figured out the straps."

"This is my third Ruffwear harness. It's easy to put on and provides good force distribution for my dog."

"I love the durability of this harness for my havapoo. It's versatile with front and back leads, making walks hassle-free."

"I was initially skeptical about this harness's minimalist and lightweight design, but it turned out to be the best no-pull harness I've used. My 60-pound dog usually pulls hard, but this harness corrects him without causing pain. While he still pulls occasionally, our walks have become 100 times easier over the past three months."

"Having had dogs all my life, I can confidently say this is the BEST harness I've ever owned. My rescue dog used to be terrified of harnesses, but this one is easy to put on and remove. Now, she gets excited when we bring it out. I rarely write reviews, but I'm so pleased with this product! The price was also reasonable."

"I've purchased three of these harnesses for my cavaliers. They are lightweight, strong, and comfortable while effectively managing pulling. I still use the ones I bought years ago, only getting a new one for the dog boarder to have a clean option. They may be a bit expensive, but their durability makes it worth it."

"I’ve purchased seven harnesses over the past year because my dogs and I absolutely love them. The new 3-in-1 harness is so adjustable and fits my wide-chested American bulldog puppy perfectly. It’s easy to put on and take off, plus the padded portions are really nice. I've bought this harness in various colors for my other dogs too, and they wear them daily during walks and hikes!"

"Our super active vizsla puppy used to pull a lot, making walks unenjoyable. After switching to this front-clip harness, the difference was remarkable. He seems much more comfortable, and now my kiddo can walk him without worry. The quality is great, and I love the reflective accents. This harness comes highly recommended!"

"I love this harness! It looks adorable on my dog and really helps with her pulling. The leash has this spring-like feature that snaps her back to me when she tries to pull, which I find quite amusing. The purple color is stunning and it fits perfectly, not too loose or tight."

"I recently purchased a medium size for my 28 lb foster pup. The vibrant hot pink color is fantastic! Once I adjusted it to her body, it fit perfectly and even allows her to grow a bit. I appreciate the grab handle for safety and the comfortable leash handle."

"I was pleasantly surprised by the turquoise color of the harness—it’s even more beautiful in person! My 24 lb Min Pin is strong and has some PTSD issues, so I needed a harness that keeps her secure. The back handle is a lifesaver for quickly lifting her out of potential harm. The harness is nicely padded, adjustable, and the leash is of excellent quality too!"

"I found this harness to be amazing for my dog! It fits her big chest perfectly and feels secure without being restrictive. I love how easy it is to put on and adjust, especially for car rides—no more wrestling matches before walks. The straps are comfortable, and she seems much happier wearing it compared to others we've tried. The strong leash holder on the back gives me extra control in busy areas, making every walk feel like a breeze!"

"I purchased this harness for my new dog who had zero leash training. A friend recommended it for its design and durability. I initially bought a L/XL, but after following the size guide, I realized a Medium fits her perfectly. It's user-friendly with just one set of buckles, and the sternum loop has helped her learn leash etiquette. While it does shift a little, the harness is well-made and comfortable. I've already seen progress in her training!"

"I got this harness for my 4-month-old Aussiedoodle after a bad experience with another brand. This Ruff harness is fantastic! It’s well-padded and sturdy, with a solid aluminum hook and a hidden dog tag pouch. The red color looks sharp on her, and the reflective features are bright outside. Overall, I’m really pleased with this product at such a reasonable price!"
