Be careful
these harnesses look great and they are durable. but dogs can slip out of them. if they pull back hard enough, while you are pulling forward the harness can slip off over the dogs head. this has happened to me twice with two different dogs.
k9 harness
we have a 14 month old Labrador. after getting this harness my wife can walk our dog in comfort. she can control the dog with the handle on top of the harness.. real easy to put on.. this was size 1 as this is important.. delighted with this product
Fantastic product but learn how to fit it properly before using
Amazing. Comfortable, robust, breathable in hot weather, dry pretty quick, I m\c wash to keep clean. My dogs have had these since pups and are absolutely worth every penny! Just a word on fitting. The girth strap should be back towards where the dog's waist narrows NOT behind front legs. Fasten it behind the legs and not only can it chafe the skin, dogs can back out of or slide out when being picked up by the handle. At 35kgs my dogs need a secure harness for agility & lifting. this is it!

Fantastic harness
Have just purchased a Julius K9 for our bulldog pup ... easy to fit, very comfortable for the pooch, highly recommended as very supportive, great value for money.

Worth every penny!
I love this power harness - I cannot understand how it works for my dog when other harnesses have failed!

Excellent, durable, adaptable,
My current two Gsd both have a Julius harness. One has the side bags also. I have recommended these to my clients in my Dog Training business.. Correct sizing is important though. I also recommend getting a chest strap addition with the jk9. In all, a delight to use.

I have bought two of these harnesses for my German shepherd and they are the best like many of you I have tried so many harnesses in the past to stop his pulling and this is the only one that works he is really happy to put this on and the added hand hold on the top is ideal when you need complete control now going to purchase one for our new arrival Buster a mixed terrier

Great looking but slip...
Purchased 2 Julius K9 harnesses for my Mini Schnauzers and they look fab. I altered them according to the vid on the JK9 site and they fitted great. But , every time we do a lead walk & my dogs wander a little wide of me, the harnesses slip over to one side which is very irritating. I've tried to tighten them a bit more but can't have them uncomfortable, and they still do it. So where the chest strap has been lowered it infringes on the dogs front legs. I have to get better fitting harnesses.

Great product
Bought this exact harness back in Aug 2016 for my Boston terrier. She is 5.3kg and is a mini-mini. Harness fits perfectly and can fit a jumper underneath in the winter. Still good as new. Never had any problems or her slipping from her harness. Doesn't pull on her throat. Have bought another for my new puppy.

Excellent
I have used an IDC K9 size mini mini for my king charles cavalier puppy from the age of 4 months. She is a year old now and out grown it, so i am just ordering the next size up. its comfortable and safe. She gets very excited on walks but has never wriggled out of it. You need to double check it each time you put it on to check that only your dogs head is above the front strap (not their front legs) and that the belt is still a snug fit and not become too loose.

Great but not anti pulling
I love this harness, really looks the part and the handle on top I find very helpful.
I also think that the fitting of the harness is the easiest ever and the people that say there dog escaped I am shocked by cause it seems very secure to me.

Disappointing
Bought this harness because of the good reviews but the straps came undone twice whilst my dog was in it so personally for me its not fit for purpose. I rang customer services and as told to discard the harness which I have now done and I would get a refund in 5-7 days. The 7 days aren't up yet but I will be checking my account soon. So disappointed!
Only harness I will use
I have recently had to purchase another of these, after nearly four years of use every day on a very excitable dog who pulls like a freight train, the stitching around the D-ring came loose and then broke. This harness has been completely submerged in water on many occasions as my dog retrieved his toys from the sea, it has been very well used and I was more than happy to purchase another after the first one lasted so long. Not for dogs who are reluctant to walk and pull back, they may be able to escape from it, be careful!

Great quality & fantastic price at zooplus!
I've read a few negative comments on here about this harness - I've had mine for over a year & I have to say that they are the best harnesses I have ever used. I have a size 1 for my 30kg Golden Retriever & a baby for my small but leggy chihuahua. Both walk well in them & prefer the no fuss putting on. We get like lots of compliments about them too. Could my dogs escape from them? Yes, probably if they really tried hard enough but in my experience, that's true of any collar or harness. Overall great value.

Great harness
We have a rescue English bull terrier that pulled when on collar & lead, saw quite a few on fb groups wearing this harness & after chatting to a few of the owners about the harness decided to get our girl one. Unfortunately the fitting guide that came with the harness was only in German, so did a search on YouTube & found a how to video. Once fitted correctly it is very easy to put on & take off, our girl took to it straight away. It is a pleasure to walk her now, no pulling at all.

Houdini?
I have a very excitable and over exuberant 3 year old Staffie who looks great in this harness. It is sturdy and well made but, unfortunately, there is a very big but. Somehow, when she gets over enthusiastic meeting other dogs and people, she manages to free her front leg. We can't work out how she manages to do it but she does. We are now to scared to take her out with it on. I have given 3 stars for build and quality and the ease with which it can be put on and off.

Best I've ever seen!
We bought this harness in size 2 for our Labrador and I was surprised at the quality for the amazing price. It is a snug fit and I was happy that the harness left no obvious mark or thinning fur on my dog. 5 stars, this is an incredible product and I highly recommend it to anyone.
Good harness
2 of my dogs have these good fit. strongly made . They seem to enjoy wearing them too.

Most amazing harness ever !!
We have a very strong and determined 7 month old GSD and also a 7 year old Husky and walking both together have been an nightmare this past few months as the GSD always has to be just a nose ahead of our Husky, anyway we have tried every harness and tactic possible to stop her pulling and after reading the reviews on the Julius K9 Power Harness i decided to purchase one and i am not disappointed. Almost immediately we noticed the difference no more pulling. Will purchase one for the husky asap
strong quality very dapper 👍
I received two of these today for my German shepherd dogs my girl is a strong 9 yr old , & my boy a strong 13 month old , the harnesses took me a bit of fiddling with as the dogs got a bit impatient getting the straps adjusted but once finally to their comfortable fit all easy to take on & off if your in a hurry. nice strong clasp especially if you have dogs that pull a lot,only gripe was the instructions label was in German & other languages but not English shame as a few bits on the harness I wasn't sure to do with ,so will look about online see what the full potential of these k9 harnesses are .I also got the optional security Velcro labels & they look really good on the high vis light green that my dark sable boy gsd wears & the red my black & tan girl wears ,I think so far so good and fab quality for the price,I'm very happy with my zooplus purchases over the past couple of yrs now and my German dogs love their German natur nah food too 👍
Cheers
