Latest Colours & Updates! Our most popular every-day dog harness. The Ruffwear Front Range Harness is padded, easy to put on & has 2 leash attachment points - including a chest ring so it can be used as a training tool to redirect dogs that pull on leash.
To find the best size Front Range Dog Harness for your dog
Measure around your dog's girth/chest at the widest point behind their front legs.
Measure snugly but not tight - a properly fitting harness should be snug but still allow you to fit a finger between the strap and your dog's body.
Is your dog's chest 'exactly' on the border between sizes and a stable weight/fully grown? If so, Ruffwear recommends choosing the larger size.

Have a young dog/puppy that is still growing? To help work out what size might be best for your growing pup:
Hold the tape measure around your dog's chest at the max measure for the size they fit currently. E.g., if your pup currently sits in a size Small (56-69cm), then hold the tape measure around their chest at 69cm.
This will show you how much 'growth room' that size harness has, but also will show you how much the next size up will tighten to.
Two leash attachment points(back clip & front clip) - A strong aluminum V-ring centered on the back for everyday walks. Plus a reinforced webbing attachment point on the chest can be used for training by redirecting dogs that pull.
Four adjustment points - so harness securely fits most shapes & sizes.
Reflective trim - your dog will be more visible in low light conditions. Also a light loop to attach The Beaconlight to boost visibility.
Light foam paddingfor comfort - on the chest & belly make it comfortable for your dog to wear for long periods & minimises the chance of rubbing.
Easy to put on/take off - just slip the harness over your dog's head, then clip the 2 side buckles
ID Pocket - to store dog tags

Training your dog not to pull? Here's how the Front Range Harness can help!
The Front Range Harness has a reinforced webbing lead attachment point on the chest that can be used alongside proper training techniques, such as voice and reward training techniques, to help deter pulling. The idea behind this is that if a dog pulls too hard when the lead is attached to the chest, it will direct them towards you (like reins on a horse). Hence, your dog may learn that pulling does not get them where they want to be. Ruffwear have a great article that goes into this in further detail - Exploring Politely On-Leash

Care
Secure the fasteners and hand wash with mild detergent. Lie flat and air dry (do not put in the dryer).
My dog is an AmStaff cross - approx 30kg and the medium fits her perfectly. I bought the orange which turned out to be quite a lot brighter than I expected- almost like high-Vis!

Absolutely love this durable, comfy harness.
This is an awesome harness which fits my Cobberdog puppy perfectly..the front attachment helps with lead walking while I train her to walk by my side....Ive used these harnesses on my dogs over the last 15 years and can vouch that they last for years. They are perfect for beach dogs as handle the saltwater without perishing.

Love this harness
We had an orange one of the same make for our border collie that lasted 7 years through a round trip of Australia and many adventures requiring lifting and support from the harness including water activities. The last harness still works but it’s a little faded after seven years so we thought of getting a new one to match with our second border collie. Love this brand and love this make of harness.

This was the 3rd harness brand I'd bought for
This was the 3rd harness brand I'd tried for Sunny, our mini bordoodle. And finally have found an excellent harness, very happy! Sturdy and well made, but still light weight, sizing instructions and sizes are true, looks great and super quick and easy to put on/take off once the straps are adjusted to exact fit. Gives full range of motion for her. Highly recommend. Also postage was quick, V happy.

Excellent customer service
I purchased the wrong size for my dashie and it was no trouble sending this back for a replacement.
Offered sizing help and responded right away to my query.
The harness is excellent and supports my Dashie’s back while one walks.
We love the harness! Our furry girl is comfortable and looks super stylish in her new get up. We have tried other harnesses but found this to be the best by far, its sit well on her body that allows for stability and comfort. We have gone for hikes and the handle, and areas and the way the harness fastens allowed us to easily hold on to her to make sure she is safe and secure when needed. :) 5 Stars
Excellent lightweight raincoat. The XS size is slightly large on my Tibetan Terrier, but as she’s only 10 months I expect it will be perfect once she’s full grown (around 10-11 kg). Very impressed that I was contacted after ordering to check sizing as the size id ordered was different to a previously purchased harness. Amazing service.
Great length and super lightweight, but very strong even when the dog pulls suddenly.
Doesn’t tangle easily, even when walking two dogs (Tibetan Terriers approx 12 kg each). Love the clip attachment on the handle.
Using it on a frenchie that has had cruciate ligament surgery and has to be on a leash at all times. I bought the harness as well on the recommendation of a dog physio.
