Why Choose a Black Dog Balance Harness?

The Black Dog Balance Harness gives you two lead connection options. This makes it suitable for different dogs and walking styles.

The front attachment point can help guide your dog back towards you. It may also reduce your dog’s ability to pull straight ahead.

For more balanced handling, connect a Double Ended Dog Lead to the front and back points.

A harness will not teach loose lead walking by itself. However, it can make training easier. Reward your dog when they walk calmly and the lead remains relaxed.

Choosing the Correct Size

Measure your dog around the deepest part of the chest. Take the measurement directly behind the front legs.

The measuring tape should be firm but not tight. Use this measurement to select a size. Do not choose a size based only on your dog’s breed or weight.

After fitting the harness, check that:

• Your dog can move freely
• The straps do not rub behind the legs
• The harness cannot slip over the head
• You can fit two fingers beneath the straps

Check the fit again after your dog has walked in the harness.

How to Use the Harness

Attach a standard lead to the front point for everyday walking.

For additional guidance, attach a double ended lead to the front and back points. Keep both sections of the lead relaxed.

If your dog pulls, stop or calmly change direction. Reward your dog when they return to you or relax the lead.

A Black Dog Connector Strap can also connect the harness to your dog’s collar. This provides an extra point of security.

Important Safety Information

Use the Balance Harness for supervised walking and training only.

Do not use it to tether your dog. It is also not designed to be used as a vehicle restraint.

Check the straps, stitching and hardware before each walk. Replace the harness if it becomes damaged or badly worn.

Make sure the harness is correctly fitted before leaving home.
