Escape Proof Figure Eight Dog Harness for Active Dogs

Escape Proof Figure Eight Dog Harness for Active Dogs

Finding a secure, escape-resistant harness is essential for active dogs—especially those with a knack for slipping out of standard gear. If you’re searching for a figure-eight style harness designed to keep even the most determined escape artists safe and under control, the Crosscheck™ Dog Harness stands out as a purpose-built solution.

Why Choose a Figure-Eight Escape Proof Harness?

A figure-eight harness design wraps around both the neck and girth, creating a secure fit that helps prevent dogs from backing out or slipping free during walks or training.
This style is especially effective for energetic dogs who tend to pull or attempt to escape, offering both control and comfort without putting pressure on the neck.

Featured Product: Crosscheck™ Dog Harness

Secure, Humane Control for Active Dogs

The Crosscheck™ Dog Harness is engineered specifically to address pulling and escape behaviors in active dogs. Its unique figure-eight configuration and limited-slip system gently request your dog’s attention around the girth, rather than the neck, making it a humane alternative to traditional collars. Key Benefits:
  • Escape Proof Figure-8 Design: The harness’s structure is designed to prevent dogs from slipping out, making it ideal for escape artists.
  • Martingale-Style Side Attachment: Functions similarly to a martingale collar, but applies gentle pressure around the body, not the neck.
  • Dual Stainless Steel D-Rings: Offers flexibility for leash attachment—use the side ring for close control or the rear ring for a longer lead.
  • Easy to Fit and Adjust: Simple to put on and adjust for a snug, comfortable fit.
  • Silicone Neck Liner: Adds comfort for extended wear.
  • Sizes for All Breeds: Available in XS (12–16" girth), S (15–20"), M (19–25"), L (22–29"), and XL (26–38").
  • Color Options: Choose from Blue, Red, or Black.

Who Is It For?

  • Active Dogs: Built to withstand energetic movement and frequent activity.
  • Pullers and Escape Artists: Especially effective for dogs who pull or have a history of slipping out of harnesses.
  • Puppies and Young Dogs: Suitable for training young dogs to walk calmly at your side.
  • Fully-Grown Dogs: Can help correct established pulling habits in adult dogs.
“Pulling was reduced by at least 70% and I can absolutely see with more practice and training finally being able to enjoy a leisurely walk with both dogs.”

Practical Tips

  • For best results, pair with a short, non-shock absorbing leash.
  • The side attachment is most effective when the dog walks on your left, but can be switched for right-hand use.
