Step 1 — Prepare the Harness

• Loosen all adjustable straps completely before fitting to make positioning easier.
• Lay the harness flat and identify the neck loop, chest strap, belly band, and D-ring.
• Let your dog sniff and inspect the harness to build a calm, positive association.

Step 2 — Position Your Dog

• Command your dog to sit or stand still and ensure they are calm before fitting.
• Kneel or squat beside or behind your dog for easy access during the fitting process.

Step 3 — Fit the Harness

• Slip the neck loop gently over your dog's head, ensuring the D-ring sits on the back.
• Guide the chest strap underneath and around your dog's body — ensure no straps are twisted.
• Fasten all buckles and clips securely until you hear a firm click at each point.

Step 4 — Adjust for Proper Fit

• Tighten or loosen straps until the harness is snug but not restrictive.
• Two-finger rule: slide two fingers under any strap — it should fit snugly without digging in.
• Check the harness does not slide side to side or shift when your dog moves.
• Ensure no straps are rubbing under your dog's armpits or shoulders.

Step 5 — Attach Leash & Go

• Clip your leash to the D-ring on the back for standard walk and training control.
• For no-pull training, use the front chest attachment point where available.
• Perform a final pull-test on the harness before heading out to confirm everything is secure.
