Rien à redire ,sauf surprise(,comme le signalaient des commentaires,le mousqueton est prévu pour un Doberman!,alors que le panier l'est pour tout petit chien,pas grave,il servira pour un autre usage,et a la place je mettrais un plus petit et beaucoup moins lourd!Car pour le cou de ma petite chienne ,ça finirait par lui peser.

Produto ótimo. A Kurgo é uma marca norte americana com produtos excelentes, esse peitoral com o cinto de segurança é bem reforçado e protege bem o cachorro. Uso também nos passeios diários, acho bem seguro. Gostei da tira reflexiva.

The large fits my 40 lb dog a bit loosely but as it’s meant for 50-80 lbs that’s ok. She is only 6 months old so she will grow into it. She does fit in the chest measurements for the large size. I don’t see the looseness affecting its use as a seatbelt but it might not work super well as a no-pull harness until it fits a bit more snuggly as it will rotate around her a bIt right now. It seems extremely well made and sturdy. A lot of seatbelts use flimsy metal pieces for strength while this uses strong webbing and double stitching. The plastic clips are for holding it on only, not for strength. I prefer to attach the carabiner around the webbing instead of using the metal loop but that’s easy enough to do. I have the Kurgo seat belt attachment (separate purchase) that clicks directly into the seatbelt which I prefer as its so easy to use but the included strap will work well. I probably wouldn’t have bought the separate piece if I wasn’t using it for her puppy sized seatbelt. It would be nice if they’d switch to the direct seatbelt style at some point.

I now own two of these: one for a ~50 lb dog, one for a ~110 lb dog. both are effective, go on easily, and are well made. tugging and other forms of undesirable behavior have certainly gone down since using them. For the larger dog, this is a replacement for a more padded harness which was probably better made yet, but did not go on or (particularly) off easily.Nonetheless, there are some changes the manufacturer could make to improve the harness:1. offer it in a color other than black. when I'm looking for the right harness in the morning, it's hard to distinguish black from black, or to read L vs. XL with my bleary eyes. end of the world? hardly. but it would be a nice enhancement.2. while the harness adjusts in more dimensions than most other harnesses I've tried, it's still not completely responsive to different dog architectures. for example, the larger dog is a St Bernard, with a wide head and ears. the correct setting of the front straps to go comfortably over her head does not match the correct setting to stay tight against her chest. adjusting the chest straps while it's on her is tough. a suggested improvement would be a simpler and faster way to tighten and loosen the front for getting it on her and then tightening it up for walking. the snap along the chest protector does make that tightening better, but the binary choice of shorter/longer is insufficient. perhaps some type of easier slider on the front straps, akin to the tightening mechanism on a backpack, would be good.3. the same for the smaller dog, who is a Cattle Dog, and therefore somewhat differently shaped from a Saint. there's essentially no issue getting the harness over her head, but finding a setting where the chest plate clings tightly enough is tough. it can't get any shorter than it is.4. finally, the carabiner at the end of the car harness is a great idea. of the four different car brands where I've tried to use it as recommended, however, none has a seatbelt buckle narrow enough to fit. using the carabiner as a carabiner is hard on arthritic hands. as a way of anchoring the dog comfortably, the solution is fine. if the kit came with a seat-belt lock it would save the bother of having to buy one after you discover there's no real anchor -- unless, of course, you have recently stopped using kids' car seats and have extras on hand.

My only requirement was a harness that didn't require the dog to step into it. This harness not only fulfilled that requirement, but I'm very pleased with how versatile it actually is.The piece that goes from the neck to the back strap is actually two straps. It’s perfect for the dog park: when she misbehaves (she is getting better!) those straps create an easy-to-grab handle.The seatbelt tether that comes with it is a real bonus. She was clearly not used to riding in cars and doesn’t do well in the backseat, but with the tether I can easily secure her safely in the front seat next to me. The long tether handle slides over both straps of the seat belt and you fasten the belt as you normally would. The D-ring on the tether clips nicely to the back of the harness. Unlike a lot of other dog seatbelt systems I’ve seen, the Kurgo does not require a different product once out of the car. Just unclip the tether and clip on the leash and you are ready to go. Unless I have a human passenger, I can just keep the tether on the closed seatbelt all the time.My dog is deep-chested and at first I was concerned that the back strap that fits over the largest part of her chest would be problematic because it does slip forward. Actually, I’m kind of glad because then I know it’s not too tight and restraining for her. And it doesn’t slip so far forward that it is a problem. This harness doesn’t seem to restrict or restrain her movements in any way; she regularly turns on the afterburners at the dog park.The construction seems to be of very good quality and quite durable, I expect this product to be very long lasting. I’m more than pleased with the purchase and price point. I would have expected to have had to pay more for such a well-constructed and versatile item. I will definitely be looking at other Kurgo products first for future purchases.
