We often get asked “Are harnesses good for puppies?”
Yes harnesses are good for puppies that aren’t fully trained to walk on a loose leash yet. When you bring a new puppy home, it’s important that you teach them to walk on a loose leash as quickly as possible. It’s much easier to teach a new behaviour to a puppy than it is to modify a learned behaviour in an adult dog.
When looking for a harness for your puppy look for a Y-shaped harness with adjustment straps on all sides – such as the Haqihana Harness which is adjustable in 5 places. It should be a snug fit that’s not too tight. In other words, it shouldn’t make your puppy uncomfortable or risk hurting their developing joints, but it needs to be a good fit so they can’t ‘Houdini’ out of it.
Our Vision
Our vision is to give puppies the best possible start in life by getting them used to wearing a comfortable harness and walking on a loose leash. The Haqihana Harness is a safe, secure, comfortable Y shaped dog harness. It is designed to rest completely on the thorax keeping the dog’s neck & shoulder joints free and comes in sizes right down to XXXS – so there is one to suit every puppy!

Loving the Haqihana harness
Coco and Chevy absolutely love their Haqihana harnesses and so do I, since we no longer need to have a “discussion” each time we go out for walkies.
Perfect for our Chihuahua
This is Arlo, he’s a 9 year old Chihuahua who we’ve inherited from our niece. Once we knew we were going to keep him, we celebrated with getting him his own Haqihana harness & leash to match our other dog, Yay!!
