A harness is effective because the dog will not choke or gag when going for a walk.
A dog harness is effective in preventing damage to a dog's delicate neck area, and trachea which can easily occur if a dog pulls on the lead whilst wearing a standard dog collar. A dog harness sits on the dog's shoulders, not around the neck and the load is evenly distributed on the dog's chest if the dog pulls, so no choking or damage to the dog. Different types of dog harnesses are effective in curing/preventing certain activities, such as anti-pull harnesses which are designed to be used in conjunction with training, to stop a dog pulling.

What makes the halti dog harness effective?
Halti manufacturers claim the Halti dog harness has a 'unique patented front attachment system that controls the dog from his chest and shoulders; an effective point of control'. However the Premier Easy Walk also has a front control. The dog lead is attached to either of these dog harnesses and they both work on the principal that if your dog pulls, they will turn in towards the walker, which dogs don't like! Both of these dog harnesses are anti-pull (designed to help you train your dog not to pull).

How do you put a dog harness on a dog?
It would depend on what type of dog harness it is. If it is a fixed harness with two round circles connected by a single strap along the back, this would go on over the dog's head. More usual these days are step-in harnesses for dogs, whereby you would lift the dog's front paw and gently put the leg through one arm hole and reach behind the other leg and bring the second shoulder strap up, so the central chest area was covered by the middle chest strap and simply connect the parachute clips so that the harness is secure, not too tight, not too loose. Some dogs can be trained to step in the dog harness by simply laying it on the floor.
Is it good to leave a pet harness on 247?
The dog should associate the pet harness only with leaving the house for a walk, car ride, etc. When a harness is never taken off a dog, especially a puppy or young dog, the dog can outgrow it without the owner even being aware. This can/will result in surgery for the dog because the harness will imbed itself where the skin has grown over and around the straps on the underbelly, unnoticed by the owner.
Is getting a harness for your dog worth it?
Not if your dog walks well on a loose lead without pulling. However if your dog pulls at all whilst on a collar and lead, damage can be caused to a dog's trachea. A dog harness prevents this, as the harness sits on the dog's shoulders, not around the delicate neck region. Anti-pull harnesses are a good training tool to use in conjunction with a training plan to stop your dog pulling. Not all dog harnesses are made equal and it is best to look for a soft dog harness that will not rub or chafe. A good fit is essential to prevent this.
