i had been looking for a front clip no pull harness and found this one. I have found it to be better than the one I had because the harness can be fit snuggly and it does not slip and become loose which was a problem with the other one.
I recently purchased a Hero Harness for our pup, and loved it so much I decided to buy the Hero Collar as well. I am extremely happy with this purchase! The webbing is made from the same ocean-bound plastic as the harness, and the magnetic buckle is the same. I just love this buckle - no other harness or collar I've used has been as quick to put on and take off, or as secure, as this one. And finally, The DawgPack's commitment to funding dog adoption and rescue efforts, their quick response time, and personal customer service all make them the kind of company I choose to work with.
I purchased two collars for my two dogs.
They are super easy to put on and off with the magnetic buckle. And have two locations that you can hang ID tags or tracking devices.
I have two dogs and I purchased this leash system to walk them both together. The leash can be adapted to multiple lengths. I’ve been using the Packmate leash with my puppy because I like to keep her a little bit closer. It’s very nice to have both dogs clipped around my waist.
The harness is really easy to put on. The magnetic buckle is wonderful when you’re half asleep or juggling many items.. I purchased two of these harnesses for my two dogs. One is a puppy and I’m very excited about the multiple points that the harness can be adjusted as the puppy grows.
I posted an initial review of the Hero Harness shortly after we started using it. We were very impressed then and are even more-so now. We use our harness every day, across a wide range of locations and conditions, from "formal" walks through town to more casual strolls in the woods. The difference in our dog's behavior from her old flat collar (used alone) to the Hero Harness is like night and day. She has come to associate the harness with "working" and behaves accordingly, heeling better and rarely pulling. Not bad for an 11-month old high-energy cattle dog mix!
As far as the harness design and construction is concerned, the more we use it the more we like it. In the past, our dog has balked at putting on a harness but she is quite happy to wear this one. Its simple design and the quick connect magnetic buckle make it a real breeze to use; we put it on and are out the door quickly and without fuss, every time. So many other harnesses we tried had awkward buckles or unnecessary padding that made them cumbersome to put on and uncomfortable to wear. Happily the Hero Harness is different on all counts. It really is a treat to find a product as functional and well-made as this, and we cannot recommend it (or TheDawgPack) highly enough!
This harness was such an unexpected surprise! I’ll admit I was skeptical at first, I didn’t think a clasp could make much difference in my day-to-day routine with my dogs. But wow, it truly is a game changer.
I live in an apartment with no yard, so daily walks are non-negotiable, and this harness makes getting ready so much quicker and easier. That may sound like a small thing, but when you’re juggling two dogs, different seasons, and multiple trips outside every day, it absolutely matters.
Now that I’ve used it, I won’t use anything else. And paired with the leash, this combo has made our walks noticeably easier, more comfortable, and safer for both me and my furbabies. I’m officially a big fan!
The Hero Leash is absolutely fantastic! I have strong bully breeds who love to pull, and this leash has been a total game-changer. It’s incredibly light and comfortable, which makes handling them so much easier. I’m especially obsessed with the clasp, getting everyone geared up for a walk is noticeably quicker, and when you have multiple dogs and a whole routine to get through, any step you can streamline is a gift!
If I could make one wish, it would be for an added control handle for those occasional reactive moments. It’s not a deal-breaker by any means, just something that would make an already great product even better.
I’ve tried countless leashes over the years, and this one is by far my favorite!
So, I just adopted a shelter pup. Not leash trained. I am not young anymore and the pulling was kind of difficult on my joints. I tried to other so called "no pull" harnesses with no success. Using the new Dawgpack Hero Harness immediately changed it up. It is easy to put on, and Bailee stopped pulling. Great product!!
I was very grateful to be given a collar to evaluate in honesty I love the latch. It is the cats meow. I was hoping for a secondary d-ring to attach my dogs many tags. In most cases if the owner doesn’t have all the tags I have the loop for tags would work well. However, in my case I must say the verdict is still out. I am searching to find a separate d-ring to try attaching so the tags will be better located away from the latch. If I can achieve this it would be the best collar yet. I know my case is unusual and my review should not discourage any potential user. I still say it is a fantastic collar…. Easy on easy off and itt will not come loose by itself. The latch design is unbelievable!! Buy one you won’t regret it.
This was the easiest harness I have ever owned - incredibly lightweight and goes on within seconds! Wish I had found you years ago! Nancy M.
A non bulky waist belt for 2!
So many waist belts i have tried have a big buckle in front. Every time you bend over it digs in. Who needs that? Not this belt! The cobra buckle is strong yet compact!
Pretty sure I could hook 20 terriers to this and the belt would hold.
Strong, adjustable and SWIVELS!!
It clips into the hands free belt and off you go.
No more untwisting the leash periodically if you dog likes to circle.
Safety on the carabiner means it won't accidentally unhook from either end!
Finally, a lightweight yet sturdy collar! The easy on/off with magnetic clasp is really helpful (and feels sturdy and reliable)!
My dogs have managed to self release from other quick clasp type collars. I do not think they will ever get these off themselves.
Fun color option for a sharp looking pal while keeping them properly collared.
The red is a beautiful color! Great quality. The collar does not smell, even if the dog does! :) Highly recommend. The clasp is easy to use.
Love this leash! It is easy to adjust. The color is beautiful and bold. The reflective lines on it are a great addition. The waist stays where you adjust it to - it doesn't stretch out if the dog pulls on the leash. Great quality!
I love the clasp to the collar. It is sturdy and easy to get on. The leash is easy to adjust and the reflective lines are a great addition!
I am truly the #1 Fan of all the Dawgpack gear! From the moment you open the box you can tell that it is quality made with all the detail of it being durable and safe! The 2 pups hand-free leash has been an absolute dream. I look forward to walking my two dogs alone now knowing that they aren't pulling and I have my hands to hold my phone or carry a drink! And the matching vibrant colors of the hero collars are making my dogs look mighty FINE! and thank you Dawgpack for donating to dog rescues! Your #1 Fan!
I love this leash, I can walk my dog hands free!
I absolutely love this color and I love that leash is adjustable for the length. Luna pretty much has all the gear, so we can mix it up with the hands-free leash, the harness, the collar and the regular leash.
Very durable, lightweight, made in the USA and DawgPack gives back to dog rescue organizations. Did I mention that I love this color? I have to cut Luna's face out of this photo, but you can see her face on the front of my T-shirt :)
I have a 64lbs Fox Red Lab, she is strong, goofy, loves to run, throw the ball, and of course swim. But before all that every morning she goes on a 4mile walk with me. I always use a Harness, especially in the sub zero north we reside. So, I decided to switch to the Hero Harness as compared to my old unknown brand harness. The Hero is very well made, light weight, so doesn’t grab her short fur and stick it back into her, doesn’t take off that fur either, which is very important. Now that I have the right adjustment (easily done), which I switched her lead latch to her front, now has our walks under control. She now doesn’t pull with a general pull from me. She swims freely, and it dries quick. I like the reflective dashes for night time. It doesn’t smell, even though I know I can wash it easy, it doesn’t need too. She used to shy away when I pulled out the harness every morning, now she walks right up to my hand, and is ready to go! I am looking forward now to the winter, as I will no longer risk falling from her unexpected pulls or tugs. Oh, most importantly the very easy magnetic latch is the best part as it is so easy to take off with one hand, and doesn’t pinch the dog like my old one did, as it isn’t possible. Brilliance!
Such an amazing collar! Super simple and easy to put on and the buckle is extremely durable. On top of all that, the color chili pepper red is super vibrant and pleasing to the eye!
I love the hero harness so much it doesn’t choke or pull on my dog at all!
