Oddly, my B does worse when off her turf when meeting new dogs, and is much better meeting them at home. I have to say that the only way my B was okay with a new dog was if the new dog was crated and she got to sniff and check out the new dog without it jumping all over her. Once I knew my B was okay with the new dog, I put both dogs on leashes in case one became aggressive, and let them out together in one room.
Ruff Wears New 2008 Harness Pics

It looks like the seatbelt goes through the handle loop on the back??
This is where I had problems with EL D with another brand getting tangled up. -

This is where I had problems with EL D with another brand getting tangled up.For this one I'll need to get seatbelt adapter to attach to the harness and the seatbelt will go through the adapter that is attached to the harness not the harness itself(i.e. the thing attached to the harness in this picture…...http://www.roofrackshop.co.uk/images/safety-harness.jpg
Hopefully this will give him sufficient amount of room to readjust his sitting postion and not get tangled.

It IS a very cool looking harness! Can you envision the startled B who is lifted straight up into the air! Ha! Good to remove from the middle of fights…but not really what you want to think about happening you your walks

What is the price of this harness? It looks very nice!

Is it easy to put on? It looks like there are three snaps (buckles?). Does it go over the head? What about size? What size did you get your pup? It looks like it gives room for good adjustments around the waist.
I would probably use it for a seat harness but I'm wondering if it's hard to get on and off them. Usually when I have Talker strapped in with his harness, when I take him out of car, I put his regular walking leash on. He steps out of harness pretty easily. He has the one that has the fake fur around the straps and I'm always wondering if that's too hot.
Is the one that you have light weight? breathable mesh?
Very interested in your responses. Thanks for sharing.

The size I purchased(XS) was $49 + Shipping = around $55 total.
I think every size is the same price however.To Laura
Ill post a detailed reply later today as I'm about to leave for work now…. check back around 7 tonight.

Thanks! I'll check back for your response.
Oh and how much does your dog weigh? I have Talker who is almost 30 lbs. and Savannah who is 22 lbs.
Sometimes these harnesses seem like they're built for bigger dogs; especially this one. Thanks!

First of all sorry for the belated post(busy day)…..
He weighs 25-28lbs
They make 'em to fit even smaller then Decker.....
I have an XS go to this link to look at their sizes.

So light I was concerned the package was empty when the UPS dude handed it my way. :()
Not Mesh but still breathable….. we've been on several bike rides and he seems to start panting at the same point he did when not wearing it. Hence, no signs of over heating.

Thank you for the detail pictures. Excellent. I guess I would also get a XS for Talker and a XXS for Savannah. This really appears to be a nice alternative for the car. Thank you again!
