[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I buy a lot of Kong products because they are durable, based on my experience. This Kong harness is perfect for my 2 year old American Pit Bull who is very strong and energetic. I like this harness because it is easy to put on and the handle provides extra support to control my pup when he gets too excited. I rescued him from the shelter, so it’s been a process getting him to walk comfortably on a leash and refrain from jumping on people. This harness makes me feel comfortable that he is not choking if he pulls. Also, there are aggressive dogs in our neighborhood that we encounter on walks, so the harness allows me to feel safer to get him out of dangerous situations. I like the Kong harness for its comfort and user-friendly

We hadn’t been any where for a while so the way to San Diego I found out that their old harnesses were to small. Bought these and they are great. Look comfortable and the handles are good. Decent price for a good product.

My only disappointment is that I had to tighten on my puppy and it keeps loosening up. I may take it back to replace it. Not sure if this is an issue or not.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great harness! KONG Double Handle Vest Dog Harness. Ultra durable. Made with exceptionally strong thread to help resist chewing and tearing. Includes self-fasteners to add personalized patches. Neoprene-lined handles and chest plate for comfort. Multiple D-rings for leash attachment. So pleased with the quality and look of the harness, my dog loves to wear it as well. Small size fits our Chihuahua perfectly. Looks great on him too. Easy to put on and take off. You can make any adjustments that you need. I also love the velcro where you can stick badges onto! The handles are so well made too! I like how to me, my dog feel secure in the harness. I do recommend this if anyone is interested in getting a harness.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this vest for my energetic dog for walks. My dog is great at walking on the leash, but gets overexcited when she sees other animals and can pull. This harness keeps her safe and allows me to control her pulling at exciting moments on the walk without worrying about choking her or affecting her neck. The vest slips easily over her head and secures quickly with 2 buckles. I recommend this to any dog owner who goes on long walks, regardless of the size of the dog.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this harness. It gives me safety and peace of mind. I love the color and I love how it fits my dog. My dog loves it too. He gets excited to go outside and go on walks. I will buy again and recommend it to everyone I know
Rockzy (verified owner) –
I managed to get this on her twice. And SHE hated it. But that’s to be expected. I wouldn’t wanna wear a harness. But. I got it on her yesterday and had to take a phone call in a short time she easily chewed it and even after trying to use the duct tape. Nah. Didn’t work. Part of it could be wrong size selection. I recommend when you’ve got opportunity if there are dressing rooms available. Let em try it on. Live and learn.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a very active Shi-Poo pup. This KONG Double Handle Vest Dog Harness is perfect for my puppy. I got a size small and I think that it fits him perfectly. I love that it has the double handles because I can get a better grip on my pup when training him. My fur baby absolutely loves it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Kong harness worked great on my German Shepherd. It fit really well and did not slip around. I really like the handles to grab if I need to hold her back.i would buy again. I love the dark pink color too.
Mlynn1993 (verified owner) –
It’s a nice heavy duty, durable harness. I love how it has two handles to lift up my pup.
Ross48 (verified owner) –
I bought this several weeks ago. I positioned the straps on the rear and front of the dog to the desired fit and within a few feet of walking the front straps loosened. I tightened the straps again and the same results happened over and over everything. This makes this harness unsafe for use.
Madra (verified owner) –
My dog tore the strap the first day. I was expecting better quality
Twistedtj (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the kong double handle vest from petsupplycanada. It is very well made with heavy duty material and handles. This has many d ring attachment points in different locations to provide added control. Also included is a area to attach patches if needed
Crana (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this harness because it has features that were better suited to my pup. My dog knows when she needs help getting up and I reach for the handle on the back that I am there to help and not hurt. So she doesn’t panic and lets me support her as she gets her hind feet under her to rise up. This harness is worth every penny!!I’m so thankful i took a chance with this one. It’s sturdy and solidly crafted. Genuinely impressed.

Mvpness (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vest probably has its ideal use. It is incredibly strong and well made but is so heavy! I feel a little mad making my dog wear this on any kind of strenuous hike because the weight isn’t beneficial (like a backpack filled with days worth of food and gallons of water). I think if you have a dog that is at risk of somehow getting his teeth on it to damage it, this is the vest for you. I think I’ll need to stick with a lighter and cooler option.
TBCZ (verified owner) –
Like the harness, well built. Just a bit stiff.
Handles smaller than they appear in pic.
Biggest con is it says a fair amount of adjustment in girth. My size small has zero. Buckles at very end. It’s like the factory forgot to cut the straps with some adjustment.
ERASERGIB (verified owner) –
Our dog absolutely loves going for walks. He is a bit of a puller while we are out walking. The only problem was he would choke because of his collar. With this harness he doesn’t get choked. When he sees this harness he gets so excited because he knows we are about to go for a walk.

It broke 2 nd week of using it . Very disappointed…
Sjg89 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our dog is 49 pounds, ten years old and half American Pit-bull and Husky. The medium fit him perfectly. It worked best for us to adjust it while off of him. The clasps are a sturdy metal and stitching is great throughout the harness. It has slight padding throughout that seems comfortable and our dog seems happy. The handle makes it easy for us to lead him along, if needed. It’s easy for walks and looks good. Overall, I’m happy with the design and quality and our dog enjoys it as well. I would recommend this product to others.
Ucmewin (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kong harness is extremely well-made. I often go on very long hikes, and I need something that’s going to hold up for my dog safety. I truly trust this product to keep my dog safe. I highly recommend this harness.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needing a new harness for my 40lb beagle/lab mix. I picked up the Kong double handle vest dog harness at petsupplycanada to give it a try. I have been ordering most of Buddy’s leads and harnesses from various online pet suppliers. It’s a perfect fit for Buddy and on our first walk I had no problems. This is a well made harness with 2 handles and 3 hooks for leads and/or seat belts. I look forward to future walks with Buddy wearing his new harness. Not to mention – it’s an awesome color!

My Bella gets out of everything! But so far she hasn’t been able to get out of this harness. So that’s definitely a plus. I gave only 5 stars because of the way it fits her. I had to a large one & it’s adjusted to the max… The front is as tight as it gets and is a but too lose. The back is as lose as ut gets and is a bit too tight. I treied the xlarge however, the large fit better. Otherwise I Love it.
Woodenhands 1960 (verified owner) –
Easy to put on with good padding. I’m using it as a service dog training vet so having Velcro pads are great. The D rings front an back of the back of vest as well as the D ring on lower chest are great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We went through 4 harnesses in less than 4 weeks before getting this one. It’s super sturdy and the way it’s designed, it’s hard for puppies to be able to chew it. We love it and will rebuy this name brand when our puppy outgrows it and enters the adult stage.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is defuone of the best harness I’ve had for my dog. He loves it too. Only a few stores around my area carry it, hope they can work on the pros availability. It made of very durable material, even after wash still stays the same. Awesome design, fits my dog great. Highly recommended!
Shruti S (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is really really good. Works like a charm on my dog. It was easy to put on. And remove as well. My dog was very well behaved during walks and I did not need to tug on her as much as I used to. It fit her comfortably. And did not give her rashes.

Brenda365 (verified owner) –
I had a pitbull that would pull and break thru every harness and collar we put her in, after getting this she did not seem to be able to get out of it, works great! Would recommend to anyone with large dogs who can’t stay in their collars and harnesses.

Not saying this will correct every dogs pull problems, but there’s definitely a chance! It super nice quality and doesn’t seem to cause any chaffing. Def recommend.

Perfect for frenchie (verified owner) –
My Frenchie is a busy body. This allows me to somewhat control his movement while in walks.
Creacia680 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a frenchie and this is perfect for him. It’s not bulky and was very easy to put on. The color is great and it hasn’t faded. It’s has adjustable straps and they work great to adjust. Our dog isn’t annoyed with it and it makes taking him for a walk easy.
STERLING LADY (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vest is so well made! It is thick and sturdy, and has two well stitched handles on top, along with adjustable cords to make it fit better. There is a leash attachment ring on top as well as one underneath the body, which provides better control of dogs that tend to pull on leash. The connectors work smoothly and close completely. The color is beautiful green. There are multiple ways to make size adjustments for comfort. The lining is very soft with nice padding, which also keeps their skin cool. Typical KONG amazing quality and design!

We had it for a while and fit our dog well. However, she chewed through the front buckled strap. Dog is an 11 month Samoyed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Totally love this harness. It’s super strong and durable. Perfect for all the daily outings with my dog at the park. It gives me the total control over my dog without hurting him. It can also be adjusted easily for comfort and perfect fitting.
Rachelle25 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tactical harness is pretty cool! We got the olive green color and with the metal and other accents, it just looks like a quality piece and has a military feel to it. It is super easy to put on (you can place around chest first then buckle under belly as directions state if your dog moves around a lot or you can place over the back and buckle under the chest and buckle under the belly if they will stay somewhat still).
ChristySB (verified owner) –
My dog is a bit of a puller so this harness has been a great purchase. It has a spot to hook his leash near his neck, near his lower back or on the front chest, depending on if we are having a good day or a strong pulling day. The handles on the back are good to keep him near when energetic dogs are close or when hiking and passing people on a narrow trail. It has velcro on the sides to attach warning signs if needed. The bungie could work for something small and light but I wish it had a small pocket for a key or treats. The material is strong and high quality. Very happy with this harness.
BreahanaTries (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This harness was hard to find, but once we did the fits were a little off for our dogs between sizes but to share we sized up and just tighened it alot.

My dog escapes out of our fence and the duel handles gives me double the chance of gapping her.
Bvaughan3 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have an 80lb lab that’s only a year old and he’s a puller/jumper. This harness makes it so much easier to get a handle on him when he gets excited. It is well padded making it comfortable for him to wear during the day and the handles seem to be well made. Buckles and fasteners are heavy duty. All around great product and would recommend.
Tpclark5 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this harness for my dog. It is nice and tough and easy to put on a dog that won’t stop moving. The best part about this is the double handles and rings for connecting a leash. These are very helpful for dogs that are escape artists, as it gives two points of control making it difficult for the dog to maneuver his way out. In addition to being the most secure harness I have used this is made of high quality materials and looks great. This harness does not disappoint and is another example of great quality that is expected from the Kong brand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a while ago and I am so happy I did. My dog doesn’t mind it at all. He seems very comfortable with it. Very easy to take on and off. Very convenient. I definitely recommend this product.

I have a two and half year old Husky that would go through harnesses every few months until this one. He has had this Kong harness for over 6 months and it is still in a good condition. It’s fairly easy to take on and off as well.
NattJo (verified owner) –
I got this harness for my Heeler puppy. She is small but so strong! My puppy has slipped out of collars no matter what we did and she ran off. We invested in this harness and have no regrets. I LOVE the two handle’s because she is definitely a puller and is reactive so it gives me lots of control. I also like the fact that I can use the back to hold her waste bags. The harness is a little complicated to tighten and loosen hit when you get it, it’s so good.

Only velcro on the right side can be used. The one on the left has steer KURGO sewed on top of Velcro
Hillary14 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These harnesses come in great colors. I liked the pink for my dog. She was a hard fit. The large was the right length but the medium was good for around the chest. I’d take the dog to the store and try on rather than buying online. Overall she seems to like it.
Skincaid87 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this fur baby harness, it really is true to size! Quality of material and the comfort I see my pup not fighting it is amazing. I’ve struggled getting her to be ok in harness and she loves this one. Highly recommend and cute color!!!
Philly728 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a blue heeler/fox terrier mix and he is very wild. He is home with my grandmother most of the day and when she brings him out he can sometimes slip from his collar. This harness has made it easier on her because the handles and better on him because he isn’t being pulled by the neck. The only thing is, technically my dog is a medium, this harness runs a little big in the neck area. Other than that we love the harness.
Anonymous (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This harness is extremely well made. It has strong fabric and I love the features. The separate D ring options are great for different times. My dog seems comfortable while she is wearing it and I haven’t noticed any skin irritation. I love how there are for points that I can tighten for the best fit possible. The handles also give me control and help when I have to help my girl into the car.
TabbyO (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this harness because my older dog has put on a little weight and he needed a new one. The Kong Double Handled Harness has an excellent price point and good reviews so I chose it. I am very impressed with the quality of the material and love the cute pink color. I did feel like the medium size that I ordered ran a little bigger than I expected, but was adjustable to fit securely on my dog. I felt that it was easy to put on and take off of my dog, too. I feel very happy with my purchase and would recommend this product to anyone seeking a durable, quality harness in a cute color.

Angelle (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very durable and heavy duty harness. Great quality. The straps are adjustable so don’t worry if you are one size off or torn between 2 sizes, I would get the smaller one. The clips for the straps are metal, not cheap plastic. The ring to attach to the leash is also metal, which there are 2. One on top and and one on bottom side. The harness has double handles, which is great if you need to grab your pup instead of pulling on leash. The handles are stitched in very well. The harness is quite bulky and heavy on my Boston terrier, so she’s not thrilled with it yet. Overall very durable harness and would highly recommend if you have a rough pulling dog.

Cricket the Poodle (verified owner) –
Amazing Harness! After ordering and returning so many harness, I finally when to petsupplycanada with my dog and asked someone to help me fit my dog in a harness. We tried everyone and none fit her. She has a small neck but large chest. This one fit the best with room to grow. But I had to ordered it, the store was out. Kong Double Handle Harness is made very well and heavy duty, it has everything I need on it. The only thing she dislike is that it goes over her head. It also has a place for a patch, if you want.
MikeyPoo91 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This harness is very sturdy and durable. The material used it fantastic. It is super awesome too as it has more than one place to latch the leash. I also like that it has two areas that can be used as handles to hold the dog.

We bought Large because our golden doodle fit the middle of the range for neck and chest. However, we could never make it small enough to fit so we exchanged for Medium and it fits perfectly (even though it should be smaller than we need).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog is fairly well behaved, but the second the leash goes on he starts pulling like crazy. This harness looks cool and fits well, but more importantly, it stops my shepherdy monster from pulling on walks. Highly recommend.

Solid construction, metal buckles were a pleasant and welcome surprise, double D-rings were also nice to attach a leash and keep a permanent traffic leash. We also appreciated the bungee for attaching items for hiking.
Melissa71 (verified owner) –
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although our dog did not like this harness, I do not want to give it a low rating. This harness is well made. I would say this harness would be good for bigger dogs. We have a 16 lb. dog and when I put this on her, she just sat really still and did not move. I think it’s a little heavy for her. Although when the weather gets nicer out and I can walk her more often I will use it again and see if she can get used to it but that is months away. It’s still a very nice harness just not right for our dog at this time.
