Ikon X-Back Harness

I have used this style harness for bite work for puppies and adolescents since the early 90's. It is really great for allowing the dog to stay in balance. I have never had it break. It is especially good for those dogs who leap high in the air and would have a tendency to fall over when they hit the point of the leap/pull where they get off balance. I've never had a dog fall or land awkwardly with this harness. It is a different sensation to hold the dog on this harness, so you have to develop a feel for it to know exactly how far forward your dog can go. I have never had dogs cough or have restricted breathing with this harness. I am so pleased that Leerburg is carrying these.

Awesome harness!!! My malinois chokes on an agitation collar and an agitation harness rides up and chokes her out too. This harness distributes the pressure evenly during bite work. No more gasping for air which results in better bites and longer sessions since she doesn't tire out due to lack of air! Thanks for the heads up on this harness!!

I've had this harness for a few months now and it's works awesome. I haven't put any major tension on it yet but have used it mainly to give my dog a little more exercise on our bike rides by having her drag a smaller chain on the ground. I use an old leash to clip the the back loops of the harness, and then string a chain through the handle of the leash which she drags. If you have high energy dogs, this is a great way to get rid of some of the excess energy.
