Dog Leash or Harness, Which is Best for Me?

Key Considerations when Choosing a Leash or Harness

                  Size and fit:  Ensure the harness is adjustable to fit snugly but comfortably.

                  Activity level: Some leashes or harnesses are better for walking, while others are designed for running or training.

                  No-pull Harnesses: if your dog tends to pull, a front-clip harness can discourage this behavior.
