Ancol Viva Step-in Comfort Harness Black .Small/Medium- To Fit 41-47cm

I didn't think much of this harness due to the price but it is the best harness I've purchased for my dog! It fits so well on her and is extremely easy to put on. The reflective strips work very well as I can see it working under my living room lights. The material is soft with no hard edges. It has a main mesh body which I assume will be breathable (hopefully). The rings at the top are made of plastic, I think, so only time will tell how durable that will be compared to the usual metal rings on other harnesses. I guess plastic was used to keep the cost down and to limit the weight on top. The velcro is extremely useful to and easy to adjust how tight or loose you want it on. The front part doesn't push up to the neck which allows my dog to move around with no restriction. There is some very minor stretch to the material which allows for more movement. And no sharp edges at all and it is very light. I purchased the small size for my Shih Tzu who weighs just over 4kg. She has a chest size of around 38cm and neck of around 27cm. Overall I'm extremely pleased with the harness as it has always been difficult to buy one that fits her well. Due to her small size. I can't really say how well this would hold up for much larger dogs. Well worth the price paid! I will update this review once she has worn it after 6 months.

Every little dog looks desperately cute in these and they are reliable, strong, easy to use and fit, and look comfy. I feel they are secure in it with both the buckle and the strong velcro. I have been buying these for years and every single one has exceeded my expectations by a mile. Great harness but only for small doggies.

We bought this harness for, comfort, and because these harnesses are really easy to put on. Less stress for both dog and owner! Suzy our 1 yr old Patterdale x Lakeland Terrier has had 3 previous harnesses, one is very strong and durable, but cuts into the back of her legs causing her skin to become sore and red, the other came unclasped (came open) on a walk! Her very 1st harness as a young pup was exactly like this one, a red Ancol. and was perfect, so we have come back to Ancol.! They're strong but soft and comfortable. No skin damage...! Suzy is 9.1kg and her chest width( measured behind her front legs) measures 49cms. So she needed the medium size harness, it gapes very slightly under her neck, but the small /med size would have been too small. It's otherwise a great fit and she's very comfortable in it. It's a good secure fit won't come open, and appears very durable.

Very good build quality comfort fit.

Bought for our 5 month old Bedlington terrier who has been using just a collar and retractable lead but we felt that wasn’t safe as it was jolting his neck so we purchased this harness hoping he could get used to it eventually, it arrived and we nervously put it on him, he jumped away from it at first but we rewarded him with a treat and then took it off him, 15 minutes later we did the same but this time we kept it on him and he never batted an eye so we took him out and it was like he had always worn it and the rest is history. I understand that not all dogs are the same but that’s how it went with our Charlie. The harness is easy to put on and very secure, it’s lightweight and feels like lt will last a long time. All in all a brilliant purchase for us and Charlie.

Perfect fit for our dachshund, who has a deep chest. Lovely colour with reflective strips for safer walks in low light after dusk

Very soft and comfortable but strong too. My Jackchi loves it

This is our second one of these and they are without the best harness we’ve had. Fits well, really secure as the Velcro is very strong and a wide strip. Easy to get on & off. Would highly recommend.

Das Hundegeschirr lässt sich sehr leicht anlegen und ist solide verarbeitet. Lässt sich auch leicht durch Waschen bei Bedarf reinigen.

Gute Qualität

Sehr schön 👍
