The DOCO® Defender tactical dog vest allows you to control your dog's pull with minimal effort, training your dog to walk beside you; the rear belt clip is suitable for regular walking of well-trained dogs. The sturdy handle is strongly stitched and large enough to quickly and easily grab the harness when walking in crowded areas. You can also easily lift your dog when getting in and out of cars. There is a Velcro strip on the outer top. It features good padding with an Oxford shell and pressure load points to protect your dog's skin, while the breathable air mesh keeps your dog ventilated and comfortable.
