We have been configuring the dog harnesses’ size range based on movement analyses. In case of dog harnesses used on a daily basis, the most important goal is to make sure that the chest strap does not slide onto the dog’s throat when on a leash, and that it does not hinder free breathing. In case of harnesses used for dog sports, a further task is to make the legs’ and shoulders’ movement comfortable. Photographs and videos of dogs at the time of gallop provide main evidence of how the dog harness reacts to extreme shoulder movement.
As opposed to the collars, thanks to the special angle of the chest strap, the IDC®Powerharness lies in the ideal zone of the chest. Hence, we completely relieve the dog’s neck for free breathing, while guaranteeing the free movement of the front legs.
