Ruffwear, Flagline Dog Harness, Lightweight and Reflective, No Pull Dog Lift Harness for Hiking, Running and Everyday Use, Alpenglow Pink, X-Small

Best harness for any dog. We had a rescue that would escape any harness and this one was absolutely perfect so I ordered a newer for our most recent rescue. It's much lighter than the web master harness so if you want something a little more structured and sturdy that one is great. This one is perfect for everyday use, especially for dogs who like the water or mud. It's adjustable at 6 points making it great for any breed of dog. We have used this on our staffy/pitt mix, one who is deep chested and another who is a bit smaller. The front clip is great for anti-pulling and the back clips are great for running. It does not rub or cause any irritation and doesn't move around on the dog when they are wearing it.

I have a reactive large dog with a physique similar to a grey hound. - fit: the only harness I’ve found that can fit her weird physique, the only one I could adjust to her neck, chest and waist. Easily adjustable to accommodate winter gear as well. - security: there is NO WAY she can escape this thing once adjusted properly - comfort: it seems very comfortable, she wears it on road trips and doesn’t seem to realize it’s on her. She doesn’t get bruises even when over threshold and lunging wildly. It doesn’t restrict her joints - high quality: has held up to a year of LOTS of lunging, running through grass, jumping in mud, cold, heat, you name it. - lightweight: strong but light as a feather, air dries in a couple hours, with no staining I must add. - force free: it has no martingales or aversive features and has enabled the best results with training - the colors are so cute, I get compliments all the time. Love this harness and will purchase from this brand in the future. Great product, thoughtfully engineered by people who clearly love and understand the needs of dogs and their guardians.

I have a rat terrier mix and needed a harness that was essentially escape proof. She’ about 28 pounds. I have a fenced in yard, but when she stays with my parents, she has a tie out (they sit out with her), but when she sees a squirrel or rabbit beyond her reach, she will turn around and back out of her harness. She has a Gooby harness, which, contrary to many reviews is easily escapable. (It’s an otherwise fantastic harness). I’ve been through a few harnesses, which are wonderful for walking, but can easily slip out of with a little effort. I was going to get a harness/martingale collar combo, but her neck is bigger than her head, she ends up biting at the collar. I have no issues when I walk with her, this is needed for just hanging out when at someone else’s house when necessary. The ruffwear Flagline absolutely fits the bill! She has yet to escape from it. It’s a fashionable choice, too, I love the pink with the blue. Fits her well and she can easily potty in it. It fits over her head, so be sure your dog doesn’t have an issue with that. I tried the Ruffwear web master as well, as I was worried about the flagline being kind of one piece. But I found the flagline fit her much better and was easier to get on. Plenty of padding , looks comfortable, and as most ruffwear products, very durable. Functional.

UPDATE: I bought this in May 2023 and as of Jan 2026 it still looks new. I’ve had zero quality issues and she wears this everyday all day except at bedtime. I cannot stress enough how much easier and comfortable life became for a large senior dog with mobility issues and her owner 🥲 I have ordered so many slings, lifts, and harnesses but nothing fit correctly or went back far enough to work for us. I felt pretty good about ordering this one despite the price based on the reviews and I’m familiar with and really like the brand. It’s perfect. One of mine has weakness and numbness in her back legs from an old spinal cord injury and ACL tear. As she’s gotten older the weakness has become worse to where she needs someone to lift her backend from sitting or lying down and potty breaks and help walking to keep her balance. She’s 75lbs with a broad chest and smaller waist and backend due to loss of muscle mass. The L/XL fits her perfectly after adjusting and still has room to be made smaller and much larger. In my experience this brand always has quality products, all 4 of mine have Ruffwear collars that I purchased well over 5 years ago and they still look new. The harness is great quality, sturdy but not bulky or clunky so She’s able to wear it all the time without discomfort or chafing. I do leave the straps loose so they do not cause pressure when she’s lying down. The chest pad is in the perfect position to give equal support to her front and backend while lifting and the pads on the straps under the chest and hips are well placed and do not dig in or cause discomfort. I would have paid double the price for this harness. It has eliminated so much distress on my end and given her more freedom.

About a month into use now and I love this harness, I love my dogs as many of you do and spent a very long time researching harnesses and looking for one for my 2 strong and sometimes reactive dogs, I live in Arizona and summers here are absolutely BRUTAL, one of my dogs is all black but thankfully has short fur and the other has medium length fur (he's a cattle dog for reference), I've had issues with harnesses in the past, my main issue not being that it couldn't hold my dog back but that it was extremely uncomfortable for my dogs especially the one with short fur, lots of the harnesses would rub under her armpits and also she would be able to "back out" of the harness when she was being very stubborn, so I wanted something strong durable and also comfortable and not too hot for my dogs, at first I was looking at tactical harnesses from all sorts of brands with double buckles but lots of them seemed that even with the mesh along it, they looked super hot and heavy to wear for my dogs which I didn't want since I wanted an everyday harness also, I was struggling and struggling and after googling and a few tik Tok videos showing me how Y shaped harnesses are the best for dogs as to not constrict the chest and cause muscle and joint damage, and also that the shoulder blade should ideally be completely free and able to move, so no fabric covering shoulder blades (lots of the tactical harnesses I was looking at had this so scratched them all completely off the list), after a bit more research I found this brand through multiple pet parent recommendations online and liked what I saw when I looked through, this harness was most of the things i needed,/wanted (no product is ever going to be PERFECT), it's got lots of room for shoulder blades so they can run and play with out restrictions and it's got a third strap so they can't back out and escape as easy, plenty of armpit room, and nice thin lightweight but durable fabric to support, also it has a handle which comes in super handy. its super versatile with how much you can tighten and loosen them, at first I thought it was too small and then my fiance loosened it all the way and it was actually loose on them and then we adjusted! Sizing is so versatile would definitely recommend to any dog parents who are struggling looking for THE perfect harness!

Best harness ever! Long line on the body makes it impossible for my dog to back out of it, and also gives me more control when he is being ornery! Very adjustable, too. Appreciate the places for lights to attach both in front and on top, for night walks and early morning hikes. My dog knows when I slip this over his head he's off for a good adventure.

I got this harness (I would've preferred going to the store, but didn't have a location near enough to get to quickly enough, so Prime it is) for my APBT before we went to the Canine Oneworld Obstacle race. I saw it suggested in comments talking about harnesses for their dogs. I have a lot of Ruffwear gear, so I knew the brand quality would be good. She had freedom of movement (the most important feature), the ripstop was very light weight but still strong and durable, the handle was amazing (a handle was one of my requirements), and all of the attachment points were easy to use. I like how long the harness was so that picking her up would be more comfortable for the both of us, but the length didn't impede her in any way. Also, it was a really pretty color to go along with my dog 😁

Ruffwear Flagline Harness Review: A Sturdy Standout (with a Caution) The Ruffwear Flagline Harness in Sage Green (XX-Small) is an incredibly well-made piece of kit for active pups. I was immediately impressed by its sturdy construction – it feels like it could withstand even the most enthusiastic explorations. The fabric is top-notch, lightweight yet durable, and the multiple attachment points provide flexibility for various leash configurations and activities. My dog and I have enjoyed using the harness, they will mainly wear it inside the car for safety feathering. However, there's one important caveat to consider for male dogs: the harness can potentially cover and irritate the baculum , especially if your dog has a pronounced bone. This could lead to discomfort or even injury. While the harness itself is well-designed, it's crucial to be mindful of this potential issue and ensure proper fit to avoid any problems. Pros: Extremely well-made and durable Lightweight and comfortable for dogs Multiple attachment points for versatility Reflective trim for added safety Padded handle for easy lifting and assisting Cons: Little long in loin area May cover and irritate or break the baculum of dogs More expensive than some other harnesses Overall, I highly recommend the Ruffwear Flagline Harness with the caveat to be mindful of the potential fit issue for male dogs. Its quality, comfort, and versatility make it a fantastic choice for active pups, as long as you ensure it fits your dog's anatomy properly. I hope this review helps you decide if the Ruffwear Flagline Harness is the right fit for your furry friend!

Assolutamente fantastica. Vale tutto quello che costa. Resistente, leggerissima, sicura (non si sfila in nessun modo). Presa per la mia cucciola di 9 mesi con un passato difficile, mai stata al guinzaglio e spaventata da tutto. Cercavo una pettorina che non fosse ingombrante per lei, dato che non è abituata, ma che fosse anche antifuga e antipanico. Questa è perfetta. Leggera, facile da mettere, facile da regolare. La maniglia sulla schiena permette di fermare il cane quando è necessario. Ha aggancio del guinzaglio sia sulla schiena che sul petto per abituare a non tirare. Facile da pulire. Insomma costa parecchio ma per me vale ogni euro

Great bit of kit, very expensive but worth it

Soft, flexible material unlike many harnesses (including webmaster) that incorporate rigid panels. So ideal for very short haired, fine skinned dogs such as Iggies and whippets that need the extra security of the third row of straps

I’ve bought every harness under the sun for my golden retriever, from cheap, mid range and expensive . This one has been the best so far. The length of the harness is perfect for her long torso and doesn’t slip like other harness’s do. It is very lightweight so she can wear it for longer without irritation. Other harness’s would make her sweat and itch and this one seems to be less of a problem for her. It’s really easy to fold up and pop in my pocket if I need to take it off during a walk and also washes and dries really well. The adjustable straps are very easy to adjust when the harness is on too which is a bonus, I’ve always found that tricky with other harness’s. I only use this harness to attach the long line so can’t comment on whether it helps with pulling. There is an extra point to connect the lead at the very back which I find really handy as the long line doesn’t get tangled as easily when she plays. The handle is a great feature too, helps me get some control easily if needed and also helps me get her in and out of the car easier. The length of the harness just feels overall more supportive for everything we need. I’d say this appears to be pretty escape proof because the fit is perfect. The photos show the top and underneath of the harness. It’s expensive but worth the extra cost I feel for all the extra features that other harness’s just don’t have.

excelente agarre al perro por 4 puntos, eso evita que al tirar hacia detrás el perro se lo pueda quitar dándote tiempo a reaccionar, nuestro perro se los quitaba dándose la vuelta y tirando hacia detrás, con este conseguimos quitar esa manía . Actualmente llevamos usando este arnés desde hace 3 años.
