Product Features
- Tailored with durable type-8 webbing
- Breastplate is removable for more airflow
- Generous piece of VELCRO® across the back to attach any ID or working dog patches
- Runs on a G-hook system with tabs for adding med bags or tactical pouches
Benefits for Handler
- The Guardian’s 3-strap system is great for ground tracks or SAR missions where a harness or collar can sometimes press up against a dog’s neck and reduce inhalations
- Ergonomically the most comfortable harness for dog and handler - setup actually mirrors the functionality of a dog sled harness
- Ability to run your tracking line from the rear ring
Benefits for K9
- Won't ride up or obstruct your dog’s breathing ability to move while on a track
- Extremely lightweight
- Brunt of the weight goes across your dog’s shoulders and down into his chest as opposed to staying concentrated in his front
- Reinforced lift handle gets your dog up and over obstacles and difficult terrain without constricting
