FAQs
If you have a very active lifestyle or want to start now, you're going to need some accessories for your dog. A Gooby dog harness will help you keep control of your dog while you're out and moving, and it will keep your dog comfortable as well. Dogs get distracted easily, but with the right harness, you can keep your dog focused on the task at hand so you can both have a good time. There are three types of Gooby harnesses: the Comfort X Step-in, the Escape Free Sport and the Pioneer.
Comfort X Step-in Dog Harness
The Gooby Comfort X Step-in dog harness offers comfort, security and style. Made with 100% polyester mesh, it's light and comfortable with a microsuede trim that prevents chafing. The X design offers a wider opening than you might find in other harnesses, eliminating that choking feeling dogs often get. Though it's wider, it doesn't slide around or impede the dog's movement. Small and toy breeds are the perfect candidates for this X design, which eliminates common injuries these dogs see with other harnesses.
The Comfort X Step-in harness is easy to apply to your pet. Your dog just steps into the leg holes and you wrap the straps around the shoulders and the back. With a quick-release buckle, your dog's harness will easily go on and off when you're in a hurry. This feature makes it perfect for a dog that deals with anxiety on walks or around leashes and collars.
This harness is easy to wash. Also made with adjustable nylon straps, every material can be washed in the machine on a gentle cycle, then hung to dry. To avoid snagging the harness, keep other velcro items out of the wash. This harness comes in various colors including pink, blue, lime green, purple, red and black.
Escape Free Sport Dog Harness
The Gooby Escape Free Sport dog harness is the perfect solution when you have a dog that likes to sneak away. There's nothing that will get your heart beating fast like losing your furry family member. The Escape Free Sport harness eliminates the issue without choking your dog.
The Escape Free Sport harness is made with a lightweight neoprene material and is completely machine washable. The four points of adjustment allow you to perfectly fit the harness to your dog and keep control of it while out and about. Whether you're on a walk in the park, a run on a trail or at a public gathering, you can rest assured your dog will remain by your side.
The X design of the Escape Free harness offers more comfort for your dog. Rather than pressure being put on the neck, there is even and gentle pressure down the chest where the dog can handle it. In small, medium and large, this harness fits dogs with as small as a 14-inch chest and with as big as a 23.7-inch chest. The harness comes in multiple colors including blue, black, pink, turquoise, lime and red.
Pioneer Dog Harness
The Gooby Pioneer dog harness is constructed with compressed memory foam padding for optimum comfort and support whether you're hitting the trail or going for a walk around the block. The neoprene fabric that the body is made of is also used in diver's suits because it keeps the body temperature properly regulated and reduces chafing and discomfort.
The Pioneer harness has a front loop where you attach the leash. This loop decreases pull when the dog tries to move forward faster than you would like. With a traffic handle on the back, you can help your dog up when it is lazy, tired, weak or injured.
With adjustable straps, you are able to get the best fit for your dog. These harnesses are perfect for small dogs with a 14-inch chest and extra-large dogs with a 24.8-inch chest. If you feel that your dog is between sizes, you should opt for the bigger size, then use the adjustable straps to make it fit well. The pioneer harness comes in sand, gray, red, blue and turquoise.
How To Choose the Right Gooby Harness for Your Dog
Gooby is a brand made specifically for smaller dogs, offering choke-free, escape-free solutions for getting your dog out to exercise. With multiple styles, there's a harness that's functional, easy to use and durable for your dog. Gooby also makes leashes to match the harness you choose, but how do you choose the right set?
First, you should consider the size of your dog. When measuring for a harness, the chest measurement is the most important. While each of the Gooby harnesses are for smaller dogs, they do vary slightly, so you should be sure to get one that will fit your dog the best.
Second, you should consider your dog's personality. Dogs that get anxious do better with step-in harnesses than they do with accessories that slip over their heads. In any case, you should always start slow and steady when you introduce your dog to a harness for the first time. If the dog gets nervous, take a moment to let it sniff and explore the harness on its own.
Finally, consider color and style. There are several options when you look at all three types of Gooby harnesses. It's not the most important factor, but it's OK to get a harness that you enjoy looking at.
