Default Sonar's new harness

I ordered a training harness after the last discussion about unwanted people trying to pet/distract dogs while we were training in public places. It works great, got it last week and have used it a couple of times doing some training at the park we frequent. It has really stopped the people/kids running up to him to pet him. It's also dual purpose for tracking, which we are starting next month and has a great handle so when he is off leash training I can quickly grab him if I need to. It's also water proof and has a night strip across the chest. I ordered it off ebay and it was shipped to me in less than 3 days cost was $45. Comes with velcro patches that you can change. I selected "On Duty" but may order something else. I like it because he knows when the harness goes on we are going to work.

Thanks for the suggestion, it has really made a big difference!

Beautiful sable boy I too sometimes get fed up with people trying to pet Nero, especially when he just minding his own business playing with his ball.

I too am thinking this is a good idea to get a working top vest..

Suzzyq01...It's a Dean & Tyler...but it did not have a spot to velcro the patches, so I pinned then on.

Sonar looks great and comfortable in the harness.

I got mine from High Quality Pet Products on Ebay. I love Ebay.

I like that one too, maybe you should do velcro too.

You are doing ScH with him aren't you, is that what you use it for?

It was bought with the intentions of doing SchH. However, we had a setback with his tail getting run over a month ago. So I got the patches to keep people from just approaching him. We are making huge leaps and bounds on improving his attitude to strangers....still pi$$ed that this has set us back so much!

I bought this one from Amazon with reflective for $40.95 (free shipping)
