What is the best harness for a French Bulldog?

Not all dog harnesses are made equal, materials and features vary greatly. You should consider the following when purchasing the best harness for your dog:

• Any harness is only as good as the fastener that keeps it together - are the buckles made of plastic or indestructible buckles? Dog accessories that feature plastic usually come with a written warning in regards to common dog injuries. Not to mention BPA, is a chemical that is often used to make certain types of plastic can seep out of the plastic and end up in blood stream.According to an article in Environmental Health News, researchers at Texas Tech University found that BPA and phthalates (toxins found in plastic) have been linked to a number of health issues, including but not limited to: impaired development of reproductive organs and hormones, decreased fertility and most alarming cancers in humans and rodents. Though the research doesn’t specifically mention the effect of BPA on our beloved French Bulldogs, it’s fair to assume that BPA exposure is harmful. Dogs love to chew on things, and if your Frenchie chews on BPA plastic, the BPA could get into their system. Even if your Frenchie in not a chewer, BPA can still get in their blood stream just by having them wear it daily.
• Are the buckles breakaway to release in case of an emergency? Breakaway buckles prevents injuries or strangulation.

• Is there a front D ring and a back D ring? A front leading harness can be beneficial for dogs with mobility issues or dogs with aggression and dominance issues.

Are dog harnesses better than collars? Using a dog harness instead of a collarreduces the chance of injury or strain on the dog's neck and back. In addition a dog harnessmakes it easier to control and manage even the most stubborn dogs without harming them in anyway.
