Ellen Degeneres Dog Harness For Sale (2024 Update)

My dog hates clothes and hates his paws touched so this is perfect. It's a harness, but I don't have to touch his paws to put them through the harness. And I get to put clothes on him.jaimmaso_1

I've tried numerous harnesses and never loved any until this one. I have a miniature rat terrier who is 13.5 lbs. He tends to be too big for mediums and way too small for large sizes. Finally, this harness fits perfectly in Medium! There's even a little room to spare in case he gets larger. We wanted to take off pressure from his neck and the v neck design and light weight, soft mesh is great! It's by far the softest one I've ever felt, and I've tried every one at multiple stores. It's so comfortable that it could be left on all the time even in summer since it's so breathable. My dog lives it too! He seems to feel safe and calmer in it like a thunder shirt makes him feel. The first time I took him on a walk he seemed to feel "free". He was so happy to pounce around without worrying about a jerk in his neck. We give this one 5 stars!!!! ( My only complaint is thay I paid full price for it in the store yesterday. I wish it was also 30% off in the store.)Madduxs Mom

I got this in black, size medium from Amazon. She has a 12" neck and a 19" chest. This harness is adjustable around both neck and chest. My pup has a high chase drive and will sometimes pull suddenly. I like that the x-shape doesn't put as much pressure on her throat when she pulls, and the double d-rings and buckle closure feel very secure for her leash. My dog learned to step into the harness on her own if we hold it up for her, too. Very good quality materials that will last a long time.lianna.b

at the suggestion of my neighbor I bought this harness.Online store availability says it was available at the store. Went to this store they did not have the medium size (strike 1). I got small because the last harness I got at Petco last week in a medium was WAY TOOOO big. (which I am unable to return $35 gone). (strike 2 ) Even tho this one is advertised online for $14.99 at the store it was $21.99 and the team member did not know anything about it being lower online. (strike 3) same SKU number on receipt as listed in the online description. ( and unable to return this item as well.Store policy )My fault I should have taken my little buddy with to measure before buying.Now I've $57 un unusable harnesses. My advice…take your buddy with you, measure harnesses before buying..remember ..you can not return in store purchases.Repotaz

First, like someone else mentioned in the review. The harness attracts heat, it can easily overheat a dog in the warm summer days. I would recommend designing the harness so it has cooling pads. I love the front leash loop, I wish more of the ruffwear harnesses had both back and front loops. This harness is better in the winter months, I would not recommend wearing this harness during hotter days during the summer. My dog is an escape artist, has gotten away from several harnesses and collars, including several ruffwears harnesses until I found this harness. The three straps works wonders, she can't figure out how to get out of this harness and she hasn't yet. Only problem is that this harness can get super hot and the second problem is that the front padding is not really doing it's job. The adjustments are hidden and the front padding covers it up, however it feels like a rock and it puts pressure on the dogs chest if using back loop clip. I only use the front loop clip leash attachment which prevents any damage to the chest. I hope this helps, hopefully you can design a new version of this harness, I think all your customers would appreciate it 🙂 Overall, I would still recommend this product, though it does has it's flaws I purchased this harness from REI, so it may not say that the review is verified. I wanted to leave some feedback on the companies website.Riley

I purchased the Switchbak primarily for hiking but ended up using it for Search & Rescue training. I really wouldn’t recommend it for either for a number of reasons. First off, the top is heavily padded and holds in body heat. The padding is totally unnecessary and an overheated dog in the back country can be pretty serious. Second, the pockets are almost useless unless they have equal amounts of weight on each side. I don’t load my dog with weight but just the weight of a 2’ leash in one pocket is enough to cause the harness to twist. Third, the D-ring placement is totally inadequate for a trailing dog. It’s too far forward and it causes the lead to get caught on the dog’s rear legs when making turns while trailing. In my opinion, the people designing these harnesses either lack experience handling working dogs or simply did not think through the design of the product. Unfortunately, this seems to be an issue across the Ruffwear line.Justin

Let me start out by saying that I love walking…I mean its kinda my stick, and since my dogs love sticks, (numerous can be found while walking), its a win-win; however, what isn’t so fun is carrying all the stuff required on a hot summer day, while walking or riding my bike. Bottled water, poopie bags, used poopie bags…don’t you love that left over poopie bag smell. No matter where I put the bag, there is always a little residual smell, and although the leashes I bought have a place to tie them after use, the feeling of a cold poop filled bag slapping against my waist as I walk….annoying to say the least. So, giving my dog pockets was the best solution…carry your own poop! The bag is not huge at all, so if you are a hiker and want your dog to carry some weight, this is not the tool for you. What it can carry is two water bladders (one on each side) with about 16oz of water each, a poopie bag roll, and one or two full poopie bags (as the water bladders empty). I have even had my girl carry my phone when both water bladders were not necessary. This is the maximum though. The side pockets do not expand, so the more you shove in there, the more the harness will stick out away from the dogs body. I will also add that my dog has issues with a lot of harnesses rubbing away her fur. I first ordered the Front Range harness for my Great Pyrenees and Lab. It worked well for the Pyrenees, but with the lab it rubbed away a huge patch of fur on her chest and even started to get little scabs. I then exchanged it for this harness, and her hair has completely grown back with no additional rubbing anywhere else. I only wish it came in pink, as everyone thinks she is a boy, but I thought the blue was the best looking color. Thank you again Ruffwear!Brittney K.

First the Pros: this harness is durable and I have no doubt it is strong and durable enough to hold my 70lb pittie when needed. It also does a great job of keeping her from pulling when using the chest loop. We love the Ruffwear brand and I (and my dogs) love the sweaters/clothing as they are always cold in temps below 70°. Cons: I watched the video on fitting the harness and every single walk results in raw skin/bleeding/scabs under her armpits (she has very thin fur on her underside) due to the material of the harness rubbing in this area. I also find the buckles a bit difficult to unclip as they are partially hidden inside the attachment area which means you have to squeeze the buckle through the thick harness material to release the clasp. Because of my love of their other products and the front clip feature, I may try to put some padding or softer material in the underarm area to see if that helps.Melissa S.

For the most part I really like this harness. The construction seems sturdy and the color is nice, and it’s very easy to get on and off. That said, I think it could be improved by lengthening the body (the neck to back, if you will). I have two mixed breed dogs who are very similar in shape, size, and weight. I purchased two of these harnesses, one in extra small and one in small. The small is overall a bit too large around, and the small (although ok for girth) is way too short. I am always trying to keep an eye on their underarms and backs of their elbows to make sure they aren’t getting raw spots. I’ve seen the same issue in other reviews, so I don’t think it’s just my dogs. I would also love it if you could purchase extenders in different sizes, because I think often a smaller size is better all around, but doesn’t extend in girth quite enough, while the next size up is too big. The good still outweighs the not perfect though, and I keep coming back to Ruffwear to buy different styles of harnesses!Samantha N.

I saw this harness at my local REI and without knowing anything about the brand or how it would impact my life, I knew it was “cute”. I bought it for my mischievous lab puppy who weighed around 50 lbs at the time, solely for that reason. The cute factor. I then came here and ordered the Ruffwear Knot-a-leash rope dog leash to match. We used the harness and leash combo for about a week, when my fearless puppy decided to show me how well it works. I was driving on the freeway, and while waiting in traffic to exit on the off ramp, I opened my back windows for her to get some fresh air. She was clipped to a cheap “doggie seatbelt clip” so she was secure, or so I thought. I hadn’t noticed that she had un-clipped herself from the seatbelt until the moment I saw her jump right out the car window, and disappear from my view. She wasn’t trained at the time and would make a run for it anytime possible. I panicked picturing my dog running into freeway traffic and being hit, but to my disbelief I found her hanging off the car window, being securely help in place by this harness and the rope leash that was still inside the car. The impact of her weight combined with the momentum of the jump, did nothing but dent the locking system of the carabiner shut, and held her weight without letting her escape or even touch the ground for that matter, and not a single rip happened to either the harness or the leash otherwise. This “expensive, but cute” dog accessory prevented my dog from a terrifying death that would have surely happened had she not been wearing both of these incredible, life-saving items. Thank you, Ruffwear, for making such amazing products that are truly life saving. I owe my dog’s life to you guys and I am forever grateful for that.Sabrina

So, I had been waiting until our pup was close to full grown to invest in this harness, as it's a bit pricier. I really wanted to love this harness SO much and give it the best review, as the quality is fantastic and it's really just an all around durable and beautiful harness!! BUT…… it did not work well for our English Cocker Spaniel Pup. I bought her an XS at our local pet store and we tried it on there to make sure it seemed to fit right, as she is pretty much full grown now. I don't think the XXS would fit her girth properly, so we got the XS, which fits nicely around the chest, but after grooming her puppy fur around the neck, the harness is too loose at its tightest now, and when I use the front hook (which is ideal for training her on the leash), the harness shifts terribly and has caused really awful matting of her fur under her armpits, to the point where I had to stop using the harness. And now I have to cut off all that matted fur under her armpits. We comb and brush her regularly, but she's also active and we hike and swim and have done lots of activity in this harness. It's such a shame, as the front clip was my favorite way to leash train her and I just love the overall look/style of the harness, but I don't think the XXS is going to fit, as I can barely get the XS over her head at it's tightest and then it's too loose at the neck. All that to say, if you have a floofy spaniel pup who likes to pull, you may want to make sure you can get sizing exact and be sure to check the fur constantly. I'm giving this 3 stars because it is a really well made harness, just did not work out well for our ECS. None of my other harnesses have caused matting like this, even when her puppy floof was at it's longest, so I know it's this harness and using the front loop hook and just the fit not working right for her. Looks great, doesn't fit great. I'm so bummed about it. I really wanted to love this harness. I would recommend it to a pup that does not have long fur.Lindsay

As I previously stated I bought two of these harnesses in two different sizes. A small and a medium as I was not sure which would work. The small is a great fit for my 13 lb Shih Tzu. But this is summer and she is shaved down. I am going to use the medium size for winter to go over her sweaters and coats. She is also is not shaved down for colder weather so I tend to buy larger sizes for the colder seasons. Besides the price was great.Marlene D

This is the best harness I have ever had for my lil shih tzu/yorkie mix. The only thing is he does not like me having to put his legs thru it and does not like anything being put over his head other than that its awesome! Absolutely love it! Thanks so much for a great harness! Made very well!value1lady

Great quality harness. I like that they have no velcro compared to other harnesses I own. This style works great under shirts, coats, and sweaters. You also have a bit of play room on these harnesses and can adjust them to the perfect fit of your dog. I purchased the matching lime green leash, as well. Nice set to own and perfect color for summer.Heidi

This is our second Gooby harness purchase. I actually prefer this style to the previous mesh one with suede trim. Although the suede is super soft, it tends to stretch a bit and the light blue appeared to fade after extended use. I love the step-in style…it's perfect for our active little Yorkie!!!Linda B

We had previously purchased the Gooby Trekking Step-in Memory Foam Dog Harness РMandarin Orange РMedium and loved it so we thought this harness would be great as well. We ordered a medium, yet runs smaller than the ‘trekking’ harness (that medium fits her perfectly) Therefore it seems a bit too tight even on the loosest setting. We also ordered a large (from another website) and although that seems to fit her a bit more comfortably, it seems a bit too big. Just frustrated with the sizing on this harness but otherwise the design is what we need for our pup. If you can get the right fit, then it’s great!Leah W

Liked a lot. The other harness we had rubbed the dog and a sore came. This one is light weight, softly padded and not tight on the dog.jcjc

I have a long hair puppy that mats easily. This harness helps with that, does not cover as much fur area. It is also easier to get him in it. I do recommend this harness.T.L.

Echoing the difficult task of putting the dog in this, I'm reminded that our canine companions cannot voice their opinions. If my 3 year-old pit-mix could share her experience, I imagine it would sound something like so: "Daaaaad…. moooom… I'm stuck back herreeeee… daAAAaaad… doggo is not doing good and I can't breath" and her 7 month-old pit-mix brother being crushed beneath her with the force of the seat belt inertial lock sounding like "aaaaaack… help…she's crushing me…"MikeandBecky

Absolutely love this adorable harness! Winnie is a 19 lb Boston Terrier. At first, I ordered the large. Like most Bostons, she has a bigger chest measurement compared to the rest of her body measurements. But it was just too big. So we returned it which was free and super easy!Their customer service is amazing:) The medium was perfect! It’s lightweight and super nice quality. And of course we get so many compliments on how cute it is. Just ordered the matching leash and poop bag. Will definitely be ordering more styles!Lynn W.

Fits perfect, super cute, extremely well made, and durable. I ordered the wrong size at first & exchanged it for the correct size. I received the new one within 3-4 business days & received a printable shipping label w/no postage needed to return the other one within 2 weeks. What impressed me the most is the post card I received a week later thanking me for my purchase. Definitely exceeded my expectations on all levels. Everyone needs Beast & Buckle in their lives.Renee C.

I have two pugs and their sizing for harnesses can be more difficult due to the way they are built body wise. I have a female about 20-25 lbs and a male 30-34 lbs . The female size I picked was L and works and the male was XL. The harnesses are gorgeous ( I bought 6-3 for each dog) and fit well due to the ability to adjust . They are very well made and better to hand wash and line dry or was on a gentle cycle to prolong their quality and of course style!! These are very unique, trendy, and fashionable . The sea shell one for my female is beautiful…. Saving for warmer weather and the pirate for my male in summer time . I will definitely buy again when needed and give a 10 star review!!! They also follow up and sent me a personal thank you post card – which is so rare these days do the customer service is top notch as well as products . Thank you !Tiffany C.

Could not be happier with this purchase. I was hesitant on the price, but totally worth it and will probably be adding more st argo to my collection soon.Els P.

My dog hates harnesses that go over her ears so I was reluctant to try this one but as the neck hole is so large, it was super easy and stress free! It's also a gorgeous harness in general and I love putting it on her. Only issue I have is the loose loop for the clasp that slides down to her armpit if she's running around off-leash, so this really is a harness best suited for on-leash. The front no-pull clasp also feels kinda pointless with such a loose fit, there wouldn't be much control and i suspect it would be awkward for my pup to walk with it attached at the front. Overall, I really like this harness, but it's limited with its functionality.Lauren

I had my dog fitted for this at Pet Smart. We did the two finger test and it seemed like a good fit. Sadly, she escaped out of this harness this evening and came with inches of getting hit by a car. I’m wondering if I used it incorrectly ?Elena Wakeham

Coleira resistente, bem costurada e fácil de vestir. Deixo apenas um alerta para quem tem cães SRD ou misturas de raças: antes de escolher o tamanho, sugiro que vocês sigam a tabela de medidas e não a referência de raça, pois pode dar diferença. Meu cachorro é um mix de pastor alemão ou belga com golden retriever. Pelas raças foi sugerido o tamanho 4. Não serviu. Pela tabela de medidas foi sugerido o tamanho 5, que é o correto. Errei porque não medi meu cachorro. Agora tenho que fazer a troca pelo peitoral maior.Melissa

Not sure if I got what I ordered. The box said it should have come with a leash and harness, I only got harness and it was way to big for my dog, even with adjusting. Could not find size on box or item to know if it was even the right one.Amytred

We love the adjustable front and back for our gorgeous mini foxy Daisy. She was too tiny for many harnesses but this one is great and she looks so cute 😍Brent D.

Oh my gosh! I love this harness I purchased XS for my little 3mth maltese x Shih Tzu. It is still a little big for her so we are just using it at the moment for training so when it does finally fit and we can go on a walk she will already be use to it. I love that it is adjustable at all points and the personalisation was just the icing on the cake 😍😍😍Venessa O.

I love to make sure my sweet pup is always accessorized and looking as cute as possible. This harness feels expensive and well-made. It has exceeded my expectations. I will be buying more Lucy&Co in the future.Rage K.

I have multiple harnesses for both of my miniature schnauzers and I absolutely love them. So durable and made of great material! The patterns are too cute. I bought one that will fit my puppy now and one when she grows a little more!Lori D.

I chose a Lucy & Co. harness because I saw one on a dog and thought it was really cute. My Havanese has always worn a diffferent brand. Although the Lucy & Co harness fit her, all of the fasteners were just too massive for her small frame. She wouldn’t even stand up after I put it on her. I do think your harnesses are adorable, but just don’t work for a small dog.Karen M.
