Don't think of this as just another harness, this is an investment in your best friend's safety, purpose built to be durable but comfortable. I grew tired of purchasing harnesses just to have the fabric fray, the stitching fail, the plastic clips break in a couple months. While I became proficient in harness repair, I lost confidence in their ability to hold up when I needed them the most. I had this harness made for my own dog, and if your dog is the center of your known universe, rest assured they'll be safe in the DogNerd harness. I obsess over every detail so you don't have to!
