Description

This dog running harness is built for the sports where your dog is supposed to pull: canicross, bikejoring, skijoring and sledding. Its long back straps lead to a rear ring that turns your dog's power into smooth, efficient traction, while reflective stitching keeps you both visible on the trail.

A harness designed to pull

Unlike a walking harness, a running harness for dogs that pull is meant to channel effort. The straps run along the body to a ring near the base of the tail, so the load is spread across the chest and sides rather than concentrated at one point. Your dog can lean into the line comfortably, stride after stride.

For which sports?

Canicross (running with your dog), bikejoring and scooter, skijoring and sledding all use the same principle: a towline between your dog's harness and your waist belt or vehicle. This harness suits all of them.

Durable nylon, visible on the trail

The harness is made of strong nylon webbing that rinses easily after muddy runs. Reflective stitching helps drivers and other trail users spot your dog early on winter mornings and in the woods at dusk.

Why the rear ring matters

On a walking harness, the leash attaches between the shoulder blades, which pulls upward when the dog leans forward. On this harness, the attachment point sits low at the back, so the line pulls in the same direction as your dog runs. The result is a more natural running posture and smoother traction over long distances.

Getting the fit right

Five sizes, from M to XXXL, cover medium dogs through to large working breeds such as huskies and shepherds. The harness should sit snugly on the chest without pressing on the shoulders, and the rear ring should reach the base of the tail when the line is taut. Adjust the straps so nothing twists while your dog runs.

Start your canicross journey

Pair the harness with a waist belt and a bungee towline, start with short runs on soft ground and increase the distance gradually. Keep this harness for sport sessions only: for everyday walks, a regular harness encourages calmer leash manners. After each run, rinse off mud and let it air dry.

Learning a few simple commands, such as left, right, slow and stop, makes every outing safer and more fun. Practice them on calm walks first, then use them on the trail.

Above all, enjoy the time spent running together.

Step by step

How to use it

A few simple steps to get it right from day one.

  1. Step 1

    Fit the harness

    Slip it over the head, pass the front legs through and settle the straps along the back.

  2. Step 2

    Check the line

    With the line taut, the rear ring should sit near the base of the tail and the straps should not twist.

  3. Step 3

    Connect your gear

    Clip a bungee towline to the rear ring and to your waist belt.

  4. Step 4

    Build up gently

    Start with short runs on soft ground, then increase distance and pace week by week.

Before you order

Your questions, honest answers

What other pet parents usually ask before choosing.

Ask us a question
You askCan I use it for everyday walks?
Our team answers

This is a sport harness: it encourages your dog to pull, which is exactly what you want in canicross but not on a city walk. For calm leash walking, a classic or front-clip harness is the better choice. Keeping a separate harness for sport also helps your dog understand when it's time to run and when it's time to walk calmly.

You askWhat else do I need for canicross?
Our team answers

You'll need a waist belt for yourself and a bungee towline that connects to the rear ring of the harness. The bungee absorbs jolts for both of you. Good running shoes for you and a water bottle for your dog complete the kit. Start on soft trails rather than asphalt, and keep the first sessions short so your dog learns the commands.

You askHow do I know the size is right?
Our team answers

The harness should hug the chest without restricting the shoulders, and the rear ring should sit near the base of the tail when the line is taut. Compare your dog's chest measurement with sizes M to XXXL and adjust the straps. Make sure nothing twists or rubs under the front legs after a first short run.

You askIs it suitable for any dog?
Our team answers

Pulling sports suit healthy adult dogs that enjoy running. If in doubt, ask your vet for advice before starting, and build up distance gradually. Avoid running in the heat of the day, bring water and watch your dog's breathing and pace during each session. Rest days matter too. Listen to your dog.

Questions

Before you choose

Answers to the questions we're asked about this product.

Still have a question? Get in touch
01How is this different from a walking harness?
A running harness carries pulling force to the back of the body through cross-back straps, leaving the shoulders free while your dog pulls. Use it with an elastic towline.
02Can we run in hot weather?
Run at the coolest times of day, keep sessions short and bring water: the effort is intense for your dog.
03Can I use it for biking?
Yes, it works for bikejoring with a proper bike attachment and bungee line, and for skijoring too.
04How old should my dog be to start running?
Wait until growth is complete, usually around 12 to 18 months depending on the breed, and start with short distances.
