Whippet Dog Harness Buyer’s Guide
Our buying guide reviews the best dog harness for your whippet.
Materials
Many dog harnesses are relatively similar and generally have three areas of materials: the straps, the hardware (rings, buckles, adjustable sliders) and the vest portion. The hardware is either plastic or metal, the straps are often made of polyester or nylon, and the vest is usually made of a durable, weatherproof fabric such as nylon with a mesh or neoprene padding. In the case of the strap harness, there is no vest.
Types
There are different types of harnesses on the market, ones made of nylon, with and without, padding or vests, tactical ones, no pull ones, decorative ones, etc. The harnesses on our list are ones that will be great for whippets. Since they have a different body type then most dogs, it’s important that you get a perfect fit and find the style that is meant for them.
Sizing
There is literally a dog harness for every dog, no matter their size or shape. Each harness comes in different sizes, and each one of those sizes have adjustable straps to help with the perfect fit. If you buy your puppy a harness, you may need to purchase another one, but once they are about four or five months old, that harness should be able to last them into adulthood.
