How to Fit My PetSafe® Walk-Along™ Outdoor Harness
Correctly fitting the harness is important to avoid chafing and for the no-pull feature to properly function. Keep the following in mind when fitting the harness on your dog:
Encourage your dog with praise and treats.
Find a stress-free environment, such as a quiet, indoor space.
Dogs may tense up during the fitting process. Check the fit after your dog has worn the harness for a few minutes.
Important: Fit the harness with your dog standing.
Unbuckle the girth straps. Place the harness over your dog’s head. The pouch will rest on his back.
Use the slide buckles to adjust the neck straps. The chest plate will sit on your dog’s breast bone.
Pull the girth straps through your dog’s front legs and buckle.
Adjust the girth straps using the slide buckle until the harness is snug. The pouch should rest on your dog’s back.
When fit properly, two fingers should barely fit between the skin and nylon strap. This prevents the harness from moving and chafing your dog’s skin.
