The DOCO® Defender tactical dog vest allows you to control your dog's pull with minimal effort and train your dog to walk beside you; the back rope clip is for the natural walking of a well-trained dog. A sturdy handle is strongly stitched and large enough to quickly and easily grab the harness when walking in crowds. You can also lift your dog in and out of cars with ease. There is a hook-and-loop fastener on the outer top. Well-padded with Oxford shell and every pressure load point to protect your dog's skin, while the breathable mesh keeps your dog ventilated and comfortable.
