Measure your dog’s neck circumference to find the right size of the Freemotion harness WD. The length and depth of this pulling harness are adjustable.

Measure where the harness will lie. Make sure to measure tight around the neck and pull away your dog’s fur to get an accurate measurement. You can see how to measure your dog for a harness in this video.

The size finder on the product page will help you find the correct size for your dog. Based on the measurements, simply fill in your dog’s numbers and a size will be suggested for you. With this tool, you will also see if your dog is close to going one size up or down.

The harness’s dimensions are available on the product page if needed.

If the harness does not fit, you can exchange the harness for the right size. Visit this page to read more about returns and exchange.

The Freemotion harness WD is adjustable to fit as many dogs as possible. Adjusting the harness correctly is important to utilize the properties to the maximum.

When adjusting the harness, your dog must be standing in the same position as when pulling; the back should be straight with the head and neck low as an extension of the back.

A pulling-harness should be snug around the neck to prevent it from sliding down towards your dog’s shoulders, as that will limit movement. If you think it is hard to get the harness on or off, you can twist it horizontally before pulling it over your dog's head. This can also be done when taking the harness off. Loosening the side straps will also help.

You should be able to fit two fingers vertically between the harness and the top of your dog's neck.

The lowest point of the neck opening should be at your dog’s chest bone.

With the side straps, you adjust the depth to fit your dog’s chest. This will prevent the harness from sliding up and restricting respiration. If your dog is rasping, the side straps might need to be adjusted. The side straps should lie on your dog’s ribs, not further back than the last rib bone. You should be able to fit two fingers vertically between your dog’s chest and the harness.

Adjust the back piece so that the attachment point for the line sits right above the base of your dog’s tail. After initial adjustment for your dog, lock the straps of the back strap by simply threading the end of the strap back through the slip-lock.

The side rings where the Pulling attachment WD (sold separately) can be attached is a unique feature to the Freemotion harness WD. The heavy-duty materials and possibility to personalize with patches also separates this harness from the Freemotion harness and the Freemotion harness 5.0.

The knot is called a Fisherman’s knot. Tighten the knots before using the Freemotion harness WD for the first time.
