Ruffwear, Front Range Dog Harness, Reflective Soft Padded Everyday Harness with Dual Leash Clips, Adjustable and Lightweight Fit for Training or Walking for All Dogs, Twilight Gray, XX-Small

I couldn’t be happier with the Ruffwear Front Range Dog Harness—this has been a total win for both me and my dog. The fit is absolutely perfect (I got the X-Small), and it’s clear this harness was designed with comfort in mind. My dog usually fusses with new gear, but she didn’t mind this at all—in fact, she seemed comfortable right away. No rubbing, no irritation, just a secure and lightweight feel that doesn’t restrict her movement. The padding is soft but durable, and the adjustable straps made it super easy to get the right fit. I also love the dual leash clips—especially the front clip for training and better control during walks. It’s made a noticeable difference. The reflective trim is a great bonus for early morning or evening walks, adding an extra layer of safety. And the Basalt Gray color looks clean and stylish. Overall, this harness checks every box: comfort, quality, functionality, and style. If you’re looking for a reliable everyday harness your dog will actually enjoy wearing, this is it. Great for nosework also!

I bought these for my two male Shiba Inu, they both weigh around 22 lbs so I bought the Small in the Blue Pool color, and the color is gorgeous!. This harness is excellent quality and fits them perfectly. There are a few negatives of this harness I want to mention though. They fit really tightly over the head and so my shiba's will duck and weave when I try to put it on them. They tolerate this harness but they don't love this harness. Another negative is that these harnesses are not easy to adjust at all. Like all harnesses you have to make sure you adjust them so they fit not too tight and not to loose. The other negative is that Ruff Wear doesn't carry them in many colors. Ruff Wear also has the WebMaster harness which is escape proof because it has two belly straps, but they really don't have any pretty colors. I have also introduced my Shiba's to the Julius K9 IDC harness and WOW! What a game changer! Now they sit patiently smiling and let me slip this harness on. It is so fast and easy I am just shocked and happy how easy it is to put on and off. And it looks super cute on them too! I also tried the Joy Ride Harness on them and they hated it. It is not comfortable at all. The straps are scratchy and the belly buckle is huge and rubs them directly on the back of their front legs! Joy Ride harnesses come in a lot more pretty colors but the quality of their product is awful! I returned the Joy Ride Harnesses. I really wish Julius K9 harnesses came in as many colors as the Joy Ride does. That said, I highly recommend the Julius K9 harness if you have a Shiba Inu. Another great harness that my male Shiba love is the Comfort Flex Harness. They sit patiently smiling when I put the Comfort Flex Harness on too! I also have a female Shiba Inu and she is a classic escape artist and I keep her in the Ruff Wear Front Range.

This harness is awesome. Not exactly sure how they achieve this, but it's the first harness that truly does not affect my dog's neck when she pulls. I allow her to be herself and don't believe in heeling. When at the park she sniffs eagerly, explores, and wants to chase squirrels. This harness allows me to control her while not putting any pressure on her neck muscles. It's well made, nicely padded, and easy to put on (one clip after adjusted) and easily adjusted. A great find. I realize this review is highly complimentary and can assure anyone reading it that I have no interest or association in any way with the company that makes it. I'm just being honest.

Great harness. Fits dog well and rugged build. Like the two different attachment points.

Durable, well-padded, and easy to adjust! 💪 My dog stays secure without chafing, and the reflective trim is great for night walks. Perfect for daily walks and adventures. Ruffwear quality shines again! 🌟🐶

I tried five different harnesses for my two year old Pekingese. Ruffwear $59.99 XS. True to size. Extremely well made and durable. Side straps are thin allowing for ease of movement. Front and back sections that hold the straps are a little too big for his little body. I would need to remove it to pet him. Price is also very high. This is my second to last place pick. Best Pet Supplies Voyager $14.99 L. True to size. Similar design to Ruffwear. Much cheaper materials but very well made. I feel like the fabric is not super durable. It is breathable but the straps and front/back sections are very thick. Restricts movement and I would need to remove it to pet him. This is my last place pick. ShawnCo $29.99 XS. Very well made. Great materials and durability. Runs a little small. The XS claims the belly girth is 13-18 but runs closer to a max of 17. This straps allow ease of movement. I like the three rings as well as a handle on the back. The back section is a little bigger than I would like. If I ordered a size larger this would be my second place pick. Plutus Pet $17.99 S. Very well made. Great materials and durability. True to size. This harness has the same design as Lukovee. The straps are a little thicker than the Lukovee and it seems to be made with more durable material. However, I want the lightest weight and smallest size straps I can find for his frame. Therefore this is my third place pick. Lukovee $15.18 S, also comes with a matching leash. Very well made. Great materials and durability. True to size. This harness has the same design as Plutus Pet. The straps are a little thinner than the Plutus Pet. Allows for full range of movement, is lightweight, thin straps so he can receive pets while ease. Amazing price. This is my first place pick.

The fit and quality of this harness are excellent. It went on easily and felt sturdy and well-made. My only issue is entirely on me for not reading the description closely enough. There is no handle on the back, which I need to be able to lift my dog when necessary. I ended up returning it. The same brand offers another style with a handle, and I’m ordering that one next. If a back handle isn’t something you need, this harness is a solid buy.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

My dog literally prefers this harness over others so I can tell it’s more comfortable for him. If asked he will choose this one over his others. The fit is firm but gentle and no constructiin or choking as with collars. My young dog still has a tendency to want to pull or dart and if I think I’m going where there’s a high risk of these things from distractions I’ll attach a second leash to the front loop . It controls the front direction gently and prevents him from fading to the side too. It’s amazing how little effort it takes to keep him on track with the two leashes holding and directing him. He responds to the slightest movement of direction or resistance on the front leash, directing where he goes and stopping darting before it starts . I haven’t ever used just the front leash loop alone as the back hook and leash gives the least obstruction to moving and most ability to hold safely if he did pull.
