Switchbak™ Dog Harness

harness with pockets

Color

Selected: Red Sumac

The Switchbak Harness has the padded comfort of an everyday dog harness with handle, plus the bonus functionality carrying small essentials. The two low-profile zippered pockets have room to stash those day-to-day necessities like pick-up bags, a leash, or some treats.

It features two leash attachment options: a V-ring centered on the back and a reinforced webbing loop at the chest, great for redirecting dogs that pull on leash. Dial in the right fit with high adjustability and a padded belly strap – critical for stable gear carry and when giving a little boost with the low-profile handle. All in all, the Switchbak melds comfort and convenience into a performance harness ready for both town and trail.

    Great quality and style

    I bought two of these harnesses for my dogs for winter weather. I like using the escape proof ones with my nervous rescue dogs to ensure they are always kept safe.

    Lots of features

    Bought a L/XL for a 6 month old golden retriever puppy. It's big on him, but he's definitely going to grow into it quickly. The straps are highly adjustable, especially the chest strap, and have inner sleeves to hide any excess material. I was able to completely shove the belly strap inside of it's hidden inner sleeve. The pockets are a bit tight near the seams, but hold plenty. I was able to fit a standard ball, several rolls of waste bags, a pouch of treats, a 6 foot leash, hand sanitizer, dog wipes, and a waste bag dispenser inside of just one pocket without much fuss. The pockets also hold a standard 16.9 oz water bottle easily, with room to spare. It looks seamless when empty, which I appreciate. I almost wish it came with color patterns on the sides due to all the empty space.

    The material itself is thin and stiff, but feels very durable and water-resistant. The straps specifically surprised me with how thin they were. I don't think getting caught on something would break or tear the harness, but a dog could definitely chew through it. Luckily, because of the thinness, it would be easy to fix with a sewing machine. The buckles are a cheap plastic. Considering the price of this harness, I feel like it should've been metal; but they seem easy enough to replace if they break. The zippers are high quality metal though, which i feel is more important anyway. I was also worried the front leash attachment would be flimsy, but it is, in fact, very durable.
