Received Ellie's new harness today (goodness, she has had so many over the last few months).
This recent one is a Mekuti Harness. Ellie's first couple of walks with it went really well.
It's supposed to 'balance' the dog when walking. It has a double ended lead, one clip attaches to the D ring on the back, the other threads through the front (chest) ring and attaches to another D ring either on the left or right of her back. When walking, if she starts to pull you just gently pull the part of the lead that's round her chest, this brings her back in line with you. It seems to work like a dream (though, I have said this about other harnesses and within a few weeks she has them sussed!).
Here's a picture of her on her walk today
I left the harness on when she was off lead, it's a good job it's washable, as she proceeded to engage in her favorite pastime: rolling in dead things :(
I am going to have to change my daily walk with her, as the section of path I walk her on tends to have the odd dead rabbit/bird, and Ellie just can't resist them.
