I have recommended this harness already quite a few times.Ruby wasn't a fan to begin with. But don't be discouraged. Dogs aren't used to a long harness and need a little minute to get used to it. We were advised to put it on when she was excited to go out. So between the front gate and the car we popped it on. Within one outting she was comfy and happy. The handle gave me a good way to help her learn the stairs after becoming a front amp at 8.5years old.We like that it just slips over her head and buckles up. No worries about paws going through. Ruby is Rottweiler (3/4) x American Staffordshire Terrier (1/4) and weighs roughly 35kgs.The stability it gives us when walking her is greatFree shipping, and measurements are on pointWe will look at one for our other ... MoreI have recommended this harness already quite a few times.Ruby wasn't a fan to begin with.

11/10 for aesthetic and functionality

I have a 86 lb wooly Siberian that is exactly as you would expect a husky to be lol I also have a 6 month old Siberian and during their walks they randomly think it’s a good time to play. One time that they were tussling in the grass, jax (my big dog) managed to slide right out of his harness- it was an over the head , under the arm buckle harness that I LOVED, until that day! As my dog flies down the side of a busy rd I’m chasing him stoping oncoming traffic with the puppy in my arms. Needless to say after I lost my heart and carried an almost 90 lb dog all the way back to where his harness was, I said never again.That’s when I was recommended this! Not only does my dog look so incredibly handsome with his new harness, it does exactly as it’s supposed to, with ... MoreI have a 86 lb wooly Siberian that is exactly as you would expect a husky to be lol I also have a 6 month old Siberian and during their walks they randomly think it’s a good time to play.

Not only does my dog look so incredibly handsome with his new harness, it does exactly as it’s supposed to, with multiple points of adjustment you have a perfect fit for your dog. It’s virtually impossible for him to escape. We walk a lot and the reflection when it’s starting to get dark is AWESOME. My dog is a major “puller” and this harness eliminates the major stress on his body that they back and side clip harnesses create. I originally ordered a medium because he was right on the edge for size, however it barely buckled. It was super easy to exchange for a large (which is much better - I can tighten it to his unique fit ) They gave me an instant credit while the harness was being sent back- I could have waited for refund- but I decided to order not only the proper fit but a front range harness for my other dog, & matching collars and leashes for both! I’m waiting on my other dogs harness but I’m sure it won’t disappoint!We are working on the 46 high peaks of the ADKS and this harness is a game changer! Now if they only had a ten foot lead for our hikes to give them more freedom then the 5ft ones, we would be all set!

A year later and still going strong

We bought this harness for our 2 husky mixes about a year ago. We live in rural Alaska and our hikes can be in the woods with tangly bushes and blowdowns, on beaches with sands and rocks, involve rivers and streams or lots of rain. These harnesses have done great. And the handle is so useful! Because our puppers are a mix of very active breeds our average walk is 3 miles and we do that about 5 times a week. We have never had a problem and after a few times of slipping out of other brand harnesses when they were puppies, these were a relief to our worried minds. Because of our location we can't run to the store if something breaks. Everything has to be ordered and flown in so we don't try out new companies unless they come highly recommended. And after this last year ... MoreWe bought this harness for our 2 husky mixes about a year ago.

Excellent Harness Love the orange color

I love this Harness. It fits my dogs well. I have two Dutch Shepherds, 45 and 53lbs. They both wear size small. They can wear their harnesses all day with no rubbing and they appear comfortable. I love that the harnesses have a handle for the moment when I want to hold my dog and collar use isn't appropriate, like quickly lifting them over something or stabilizing myself for a second when hiking. The bright orange color is wonderful. It allows me and others to spot the dogs quickly and easily. The dogs are so well camouflaged naturally with their brindle coloring, the bright orange harnesses are a great safety feature, not only so I can quickly glance and see where they are, but also so other people can also. Even on leash, the orange is a great safety feature. I ... MoreI love this Harness. It fits my dogs well. I have two Dutch Shepherds, 45 and 53lbs. They both wear size small.

I don't clip my leash to the harness often (i use collars for normal leash attachment) except occasionally to allow the dogs to pull me up a hill but the d- ring attachments seem to be in good locations on the harness and the harness has appropriate reinforcement and padding where needed.

Great Harness

This is our second time buying the Webmaster for our 2 dogs. The first set that we purchased for our dogs lasted about eight years and are actually still usable, but are just beginning to look shabby now, and that is with daily use, and washing with the washing machine and hang drying probably once a month. Our dogs were in between sizes so based on the comments we elected for the smaller of the two sizes and it worked out perfectly. Previously, we had the gray (which we really liked), but we elected for the orange this time, as we hike year round through hunting season. The orange stands out and looks great and the new harnesses looks super durable. Once again we are very satisfied customers. My only suggestion would be to maybe add a little bit more reflective ... MoreThis is our second time buying the Webmaster for our 2 dogs.

Great harness for Houdini dogs!

This harness has been great for keeping our pup safe from her own nefariousness. She figured out how to slip her front range harness and soon began slipping it or trying to slip it (so we'd have to be ultra vigilant) as often as she wanted to go off on her own adventure. We're in an urban area so that's of course not safe. This harness is comfortable for her, relatively easy to put on (you do have to pull the right leg through after slipping it over their head, but it's flexible), and I like that there are only 2 buckles to fasten instead of potentially 4. She absolutely cannot slip it and this is especially important when I'm walking my dogs together, in case I have to focus on my other dog/pick up poop/etc., I don't have to worry about her trying to slip her ... MoreThis harness has been great for keeping our pup safe from her own nefariousness.

I'd give this 5 stars if this harness had 2 other details that were thought of:1: The attachment for the light is right behind the leash attachment which means the leash gets snagged on the light quite often. Not a deal breaker but not thought through. If the light attachment were closer to the dog's neck it'd be better.2: I'd have loved to see a pocket for ID tags like the Front Range harness has - my dogs' tags get stuck on plants all the time and I prefer not to have them on their collars. This doesn't have that little pocket so if we're at the dog park I have to make sure to carry her tags, while my dog who wears the Front Range just has his in the velcro pocket

Great quality product, highly recommend

I recently adopted a 3 legged Labrador. I had concerns on which harness product was best but after lots of research I was recommended Ruffwear webmaster.I mainly bought this as I wanted a harness that wouldn’t slip around whilst my dog walked (as not secured by both front legs) and also to help with stairs in our house - which she hasn’t needed, as she ran up and down them straight away!!She is missing her front right leg, so it’s an easy slip over the head and buckle up. If some one is reading this with a front LEFT leg missing, then you would need to lift their right leg into the harness which would make them unbalanced. Just something to think about!Very high quality, durable material. I also purchased the brush coat with it. Not sure if really necessary & ... MoreI recently adopted a 3 legged Labrador.

But haven’t tried without so can’t say it’s not making a difference.I chose the orange which has helped to see my black lab easier! I have a small lab, she’s only 20kg! And fits a small size.I would highly recommend this product and also found Canine Spirit very helpful with any questions I had.

Lifesaver and that’s NO Lie

We adopted our sweet Abby over a year ago, she was an abandoned mixed puppy. We still don’t know all the breeds that make her up, but everyone says she looks just like a tiny lab puppy. Funny thing is she’s full grown and the best escape artist ever when it comes to harnesses. We had tried so many different, harnesses, and collars, but Abby found a way to back out of them all and run free. One time she even made it to the main road, which scared us to death. Now before you say anything, yes we’ve been training her. She listens very well in the house and on her leash, She doesn’t bolt for the door she respects the alpha. However, all that changes when she escapes a leash. She’s so small and so fast we just been blessed to catch her each time. I was skeptical, going ... MoreWe adopted our sweet Abby over a year ago, she was an abandoned mixed puppy.

The web master harness delivered everything. It promised! Abby is safe and secure, and we finally have peace of mind. We bought the beacon light to go with it for night walks, and it’s just one more wonderful layer of security. This harness is a true lifesaver!!

Style and Function Combine in a Winning Design

Thumbs up for the sturdy, well-designed Web Master harness! It was easy to fit properly and our chosen color of day-glo orange looks great on my dog’s black and white coat. More importantly id vastly increases his visibility for hiking, biking and trail rides, particularly when riding our country roads. The belly strap concept was new to my dog, but posed no issue in his acceptance of the harness. We use(d) treats to condition a positive association with the act of harnessing and unharnessing him. The pleasing contrast of the grey straps influenced our color choice. On a long bike ride yesterday, which happened to follow a 4 mile trail ride just the previous day, my 12-year-old border collie began to limp a bit.

The pleasing contrast of the grey straps influenced our color choice. On a long bike ride yesterday, which happened to follow a 4 mile trail ride just the previous day, my 12-year-old border collie began to limp a bit. I checked first for harness rubbing but found none, then checked his paws too, but knew the limp was most likely due to a flare up of arthritis. I’d forgotten to bring along a leash, but by looping some baling twine I’d found along the road through the aluminum ring on the back of the harness—and thanks to its padded straps that don’t dig into his lipomas—I was able to comfortably support my dog’s weight a bit as we walked back home. Happily, half a Rimadyl and some rest had him feeling better in short order. I was sure glad however, to have coincidentally dressed him in his new, supportive Web Master harness. Concerning heat—I feel the bright orange color and light, insulative padding of this harness may provide some protection for my black dog from our high-altitude sun’s rays. There are also thoughtfully designed channels on the padded underside of the harness to provide air circulation and help with longitudinal flexibility so the harness will more readily mold around the dog’s body (it is a bit stiff at first, so am storing it with a rubber band around it till it’s broken in). I don’t plan to use this harness in hot weather however, and will opt instead for an older, lighter-weight, orange Ruffwear vest when our concern is visibility, or use a lighter-weight harness for leashed walks in town. When it’s cool out though, you can bet we’ll be sporting the Web Master look wherever it makes sense.

This harness bought me a hundred extra adventures with my old dog

I bought this harness in April of 2020 because our aging Golden Retriever (then 12) had been diagnosed with neuropathy that was slowly weakening his back legs. He didn't need it quite yet at the time, but I wanted to get it early to acclimate him to it.Well, I got almost three bonus years of hikes with him, largely because of this harness. He lost some weight as he got older, and it was adjustable enough that the three-point support continued to allow me to get him in and out of the car, over obstacles, and toward the end, just straight on the trail instead of stumbling off to the side.Without a "suitcase" handle on him, I wouldn't have risked bringing him on some of those adventures in the last couple of years. But I did, because I knew I could help him over ... MoreI bought this harness in April of 2020 because our aging Golden Retriever (then 12) had been diagnosed with neuropathy that was slowly weakening his back legs.

But I did, because I knew I could help him over those logs when his rear legs got weak or down those hills when his sense of fun outpaced his coordination. One of my favorite memories of him is jogging downhill on a trail next to him, holding the handle so he wouldn't fall, and saying "you're so fast still, bud!"So thanks, from the bottom of my heart, for designing a product that gave us walk after walk and sunrise after sunrise together, literally two years after he started seriously getting weaker. I kept saying, "it's ok if this is the last one, buddy," and he kept saying, "at least one more."He died at fifteen years old, only a month or two after our last hike together. I credit at least some of that extra old age time to the fact that I could keep him adventuring with this harness as a safety net. So thank you, thank you, thank you.Brian & Comet
