Can anyone recommend a good no pull harness suitable for a large Lab please?
Preferably from Amazon.
TIA

We used a halti on our lab

www.amazon.co.uk/Halti-Headcollar-Black-Size-3/dp/B004XNLCPC/ref=asc_df_B004XNLCPC/?hvlocphy=9045255&linkCode=df0&hvptwo&psc=1&psc=1&hvnetw=g&hvadid=309819532054&hvpone&hvlocint&th=1&hvpos&hvdev=t&hvdvcmdl&hvqmt&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&hvtargid=pla-408281816127&hvrand=10299180281846941304

Only unti she was well trained. After working with her with the halti she spent the rest of her life trotting along beside us and never pulled.

Thanks, I had not thought of one that goes over the face. He has a harness now from pets at home but he pulls like a train on itGrin

Do you use both clips? Can your dog walk to heal on a lead and collar? I’ve never used a harness as my dog was a guide dog pup they train with lead and collar but he never pulled because he was taught not to. My mum uses a harness for her dog and it’s important not to impede shoulders and use both clips so you need a long lead which is better for control. She’s recommended a Copenhagen harness for my pup and is sending some for me to try before I buy my own.

We've got a 'walk your dog with love' harness. We ordered it online (I think they're American) and it's been brilliant so far. Totally recommend.

We use a sense-ible harness. it's GREAT

I’ve got a big, strong teenaged lab (32.5kg and all muscle) and he also pulls like a traction engine. He’s pulled me over several times and is dangerous near roads (he’s not scared of them, just headstrong). We’re trying to lead train but it’s an ongoing battle [grimace]. I’ve just bought one of those 2posh2pull head collars as recommended by @GrowThroughWhatYouGoThrough, fingers crossed! I’ve seen head collars before and not liked them because they’ve looked a bit abrasive and aversive but these look soft and a bit gentler. We’ll see.

@Kaykay066 the harness I have only has 1 clip on the back,, from what I understand I need one that clips on the back and front? On the way home from his walk he walks like a dream, it's just on the way to the park hes so excited to get there I have a job to hold him! Hes almost 2 and weighs 40kg!

I’ve been recommended the perfect fit harness by our trainer. Only just ordered it so not had chance to try it yet. I believe it clips front and back and have been told it’s been designed to allow normal joint movements.

GrowThroughWhatYouGoThrough · 20/08/2020 22:34

@DeathByPuppy let me know how you get on it's a proper game changer for us

DeathByPuppy · 21/08/2020 10:16

@GrowThroughWhatYouGoThrough, I will! He’s a lovely, gentle dog in all other respects, just extremely keen on the lead.

Dreamersandwishers · 21/08/2020 19:20

Perfect fit or Trulove. They have front & back rings and a grab hand,d. Nicely cushioned. 2 fit strong labs here. Managed to hold them as we went down steep steps to the beach this morning 👍🏻

WhatNowFrantic · 30/08/2020 08:05

Thanks everyone. I got doggo a Truelove harness.
It fits him perfectly and has a front and back attachment. We had a lovely walk with it yesterday. And he looks very handsome!
