Identifying the parts:

• The chest piece has a martingale loop with a “D” ring for attaching the leash.


• The shoulder strap is made of the same color nylon as the chest strap and has the Premier fabric tag.
  
• The belly strap is made of a complementary color.

Fitting the harness:

• Open the quick snap buckle on the belly strap.
  
• Place the shoulder strap over the dog’s head with the chest strap resting on the dog’s chest.
  
• Tighten belly strap to a comfortably snug fit. On medium-sized dogs, only allow room for about a finger’s width under the strap. Allow a bit more for larger dogs, less for smaller dogs.
  
• Gently press fingers on the lower part of the front of the dog’s chest to locate the breastbone.
  
• Adjust the shoulder strap so that when the chest strap is horizontal (parallel to the ground), the chest strap rests directly over the breast bone.
  
• AFTER you have tightened both the shoulder and belly straps to allow only about a finger’s width under the belly strap, adjust the chest strap to fit securely. It should rest nearly parallel to the ground, not “hang down” or gap.
  
• You may need to remove the harness to make these adjustments.
  
• When the shoulder strap is fitted correctly, the chest strap should resemble a horizontal line (parallel to the ground), and it will rest directly over the breastbone.
  
• Attach the leash to the D-ring on the chest strap.
