Important to me are 4 things:
- Security
- Day comfort
- Simple creation
- Washability
Security
Which is, especially in the dark winter months, through the reflective chest strap and reflective stickers (originals, so "K9", resulting in slightly irritated responses naturally and even with other dog owners, because simply he does not listen to Julius), but also by the signal color orange more than given. On the evening round a luminous necklace is created if necessary even.
Very good: by the waist belt can be the harness even under unfavorable conditions not strip (Leinenzug forward).
Comfort
Because of course, the Fellnase the last word, but the way I see it, it seems no problem with the dishes to have. A quarter star deduction there is at best that it stays in place even after the left or right.
As a side note: The separately erhätliche Y-piece has at least proven with us as a bad investment. It inhibits the one hand, the mobility of Fellnase enormous and must on the other hand every time be adjusted at the waist belt. Here I could imagine another solution well.
Simple creation
Once adjusted to the optimal size, it can be wonderfully quickly and simply: The Fellnase pokes her head through the chest band, then the belly band is clipped, hooked the leash on pleasing large D-ring and off you go. From this one can easily make a ritual, and my rising joyfully to the dishes. One search. Excellent.
Washability
So a dirty crockery happy times, especially in a non-flat water and mud shy Fellnase. Then it begins also like once to smell musty. Since the K9 harness is no exception. Hand wash does not need to be so brave times at 40 °, 60 ° even washed together with blankets and only the Fellnase reserved towels. This because even every 1 to max. 2 weeks (the fall of this year was not very dry). In order to protect the machine, I put the D-ring between the handle, press the on (Velcro), the dishes on rotating links and close the waist belt. Washed it was always together with the stickers, but still reflect (but please apply explicitly only for original K9 sticker). Except for a few loose threads there have been none of the 4 harnesses notable problems.
Other
Very practical: the generously sized handle (added: we need the size 2, with smaller utensils may be different) on the back panel. I'm not quite sure how it looks with paternity suits in dogs, but the handle has not yet prevents any potential action. Super also when an encounter with known louts can not be avoided.
Huge D-ring. Just in wet cold weather, when the finger but be somewhat clammy, very practical. Especially when the dog and Tasso mark attached thereto.
Despite several washings, there has been none of the Harness Safety problems (imagine: brittle closure, detaching paint on stickers, reflective strips on the chest detaching tape).
Caveat
Due to the abdominal belt this harness is (like most others) suitable * not * for swimming laps in potentially unsafe water. Before the bath therefore necessarily remove dishes and possibly collar to easily catches but dead wood in it.
Conclusion
An impressively good and durable dishes, I would definitely buy again.
