Difficult finding a suitable harness with clip for front and back lead attachment. Help please.

I am finding it difficult to find a suitable harness for my young bouncy GSD x dog. I had a lovely one with my previous dog, which doesn’t seem to be available now.
I have tried a few including Perfect Fit.
Ideally I’d like something soft, strong and to be able to attach lead to front and back. To be absolutely perfect, it would have a handle to grab on top.
Any suggestions?

We used to have this for our extremely bouncy Boxer dog.

We moved away from a harness to a head halter because she pulled less with it. With the harness she could pull more because we had more control. We finally settled on this one as the best so far.

I too am looking for a new harness for my dog. I found this in Amazon and need to measure my dog. I like that it seems strong, and has various methods to adjust the fit. It also has the grab handle on it. Lead attachment is under the grab handle.

Have a look at Indi- dog , our dog has a couple of their Houdini harnesses , we’ve had them for years and they are very sturdy and wash really well .

We got a Phoepet harness which has front and back loops and carry handle. Very happy with it!

Ruffwear is brilliant for my Houdini of a rescue hound. Has front and back clips and a handle. We got the one with pockets which is brilliant for carrying spare poo bags and stuff like balls/water on long walks.

Dog Copehagen. It has front and back clip and a handle. It's slightly longer in the chest than other harnesses I've tried so fits my dog more comfortably than others I have had.

Thank you very much for these suggestions. They are all new to me, so hopefully I’ll get one that fits well.

Another vote for Ruffwear - works really well for my GSD.
