deboosh Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 We bought a no-pull harness, called an "Easy Walk", and it really helped with our girl's pulling, but I just noticed that there's a spot on her shoulder where one of the straps has irritated her skin. So I'm on the search again for a no-pull harness that will not chafe, and maybe even has some cushioning. Can anyone recommend one? Quote Image removed, not within Signature Guidelines.

o_rooly Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 No personal experience with it, but I've heard the Wiggles, Wags & Whiskers harness mentioned on GT pretty often:http://wiggleswagswhiskers.com/ hope this helps!

Neighsayer Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Just put a piece of moleskin on the strap where it rubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverhound Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 (edited) We have the Wiggles, Wags, and Whiskers harness for Brees, and it was uncomfortable under her "arms" at first. She needed time to adjust to walking in it, but not much. She never had any chafing, but you could see that it felt weird. Within a few months, though, it cured her of pulling, and it made her easier to walk right away. We can walk her on a martingale now. Eta: My spring siggie shows how it fits.

The WWW one has velvet lining under their "armpits." We use one religiously on Truman and have had no chafing or anything. Great product.

Kestrel Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 We use the WWW one for Badger, and have never had any chafing problems. Highly recommend it!

SarahsBlackPack Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I have a WWW harness for Angel too. As far as I'm concerned it's the best money I 've spent. I tried the easy walk harness for her. It it only helped a little bit. So I tried the WWW on the recomedation of good friend who has been using them on her hounds for years. Quote Sarah, mom to Stella and Winston .

schultzlc Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I am also a big fan of the WWW harness. Luna doesn't pull, but she sometimes gets spooked outdoors, and using this harness has provided a lot of peace of mind. I will continue to purchase WWW harnesses for all of my future pups.

RedHead Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I also have the WWW which so far has worked the best. The wider, velvet straps are really good. Teague still has chaffing marks from it on his tummy and his chest (where the two straps cross), so I had to sew a little patch of felt over those parts. He doesn't even pull so I don't know why this happens. I am trying to find a completely padded harness for a good price, but no luck so far.
