Which way does a dog harness go on?
The harness should fit around your dog’s body, not around its neck. The loops will settle at the top of the dog’s legs against its belly. Tug the side straps up over the dog’s belly and onto its back. The harness may have more than one clip to secure it on the dog.

How can I help my dog with weak back legs?
Take short walks with your pup, keeping the pace slow and relaxed, to help slowly rebuild muscle. Swimming is another low-impact activity that’s especially helpful for weak hind legs. Water supports your dog’s weight, allowing him to move more freely than he can on dry land.
How do you transport a large dog that can’t walk?
For severely injured dogs that are unable to stand on their own, a pet stretcher is often the safest way to transport your large dog. A transport stretcher safely supports your dog’s entire weight and allows multiple people to help carry your dog to the car or to Vet.
How do you put a clip on the back of a harness?
Back-clip harnesses will have a D-ring on the back—between your dog’s shoulders. To put on this type, start by putting the smaller loop over your dog’s head, so it sits like a collar. Then have your dog step through the other loops. Adjust the fit by tightening or loosening the straps through the sliders.
Why does my dog’s harness fall to the side?
Naturally, an ill-fitting harness isn’t always this obvious, but you can still look for these signs of an incorrect fit: Chafing, rashes, or loss of fur around the harness area. The harness slides or falls to the side — the leash should clip on the top of the back or on the front of the chest, depending on its style.
Why is there a clip on the bottom of a dog harness?
Back-clip harnesses are for calm dogs trained not to pull on the leash, as the design does little to discourage pulling. When back-clip harnesses are used with an untrained dog who likes to pull, they create a sled-pulling action, with the owner dragged along in place of the sled.
