One other point in defense of harnesses; We were walking in a park and a very friendly looking Lab mix raced up dragging his Flexi leash and attacked one of our boys. Fortunately my husband was able to haul him up like a fish using the leash and his Puppia harness. Had he not been able to do that I am sure Rico would have been bitten more severely or my husband would have been injured reaching down to grab Rico. Sue
