- Anxious behaviour when being exercised
- Improved control, allowing both you and your dog the opportunity to enjoy your time together, with no shouting!
- Nervous dogs - the harness is designed to be put on without having to lift the legs, or manhandle them in anyway, so very useful for rescue dogs.
- Dog or people-aggressive dogs can be led safely between 2 people, being attached to both by a lead to add to their confidence and help them to cope in these situations.
HOW THE HARNESS WORKS The Mekuti Balance Dog Harness TM enables the handler to use two points of contact with the dog. When a dog pulls, you become part of their balancing technique. By using two connection points, you can withdraw one of the balance points before taking up the other. It is very simple. The end result is a dog that is unsure what he can lean into and therefore re-learns how to balance on his own four feet without relying on you - hence "Balance Harness". Once the dog has learnt this, you give fewer and fewer signals until he is walking alongside you without your input. A dog walking on a loose lead : - May think more clearly
- Responds rather than reacts
- Reduces the chance of injury
- Is a pleasure for its handler
FITTING THE HARNESS - Undo the two clips and place the harness over the dogs head.
- Re-attach the clips on either side of the chest.
- Attach one end of the double-ended lead (with the largest clip) to the D-Ring on the back of the harness. Then thread the other smaller clip down through the chest ring at the front.
- Attach the lead to the ring on the side of the harness and you are ready to start.
