FIRST THINGS FIRST
Walking our dogs is a rather new thing. In the past, not many people had dogs just for companionship. Dogs had jobs, and not many people "walked" them.

Nowadays, most dogs are just companions. Companions that need to be walked. And we either use a harness based on the design of a working dog harness, the leash pull point attachment on the back, or, because it is convenient, we just click the leash to our dogs collar or chain. Sort of like walking in ski boots because they were the first shoes we could find.

The Harness is specifically engineered for walking our dogs; not them walking us. The front-attaching leash mount is an important element of this design. It puts us first

PUTS YOU IN CONTROL
For thousands of years animals have been led from the front. People worldwide continue to use this technique because leading from the front gives us more control.

The harness connects from the front, putting us in control. Control over where we walk, control over our dog's pulling, jumping, running, and tugging.

CENTER YOURSELF
The physical structure of a dog makes them very hard for us humans to control. A dog's low, wide, and horizontal shape gives them a much more stable center of gravity than our vertical shape, with its high and easily unbalanced center of gravity.

Add to this the traction of our dog's four feet all pulling in one direction, and their nails, which give them even more traction. This means our dogs have an almost unstoppable momentum, especially when motivated by a chattering squirrel, another dog, or a stranger who they want to jump on.

The dog harness puts the leash pull-point close to our dog's center of gravity, counteracting their natural mechanical advantage. This makes it easier to manage our dog, especially during that wild or "unexpected" activity . . . which we have come to expect.
