<< Was he right? >> My experience over the years is that there is far LESS control with a harness than a collar as the dog can throw its entire weight into the chest strap. That's one of the reasons harnesses are used in drafting rather than just hitching the cart to the collar. I sincerely doubt, unless one of the special "no pull" harnesses are used, there would be greater control. I think you are doing fine using the Halti when you anticipate problem behavior.
