Description
A harness your dog can't just lean into.
When a dog pulls against a normal harness, they're pulling against their shoulders — which is the strongest part of them, and the part they're built to pull with. It's why a harness can make pulling worse.
This one clips at the front. When your dog pulls, the martingale loop closes gently across the chest and turns them back towards you. Nothing tightens around the throat and nothing corrects them. The pull just stops getting them anywhere.
Four adjustment points. Neck and chest adjust independently, so it fits your dog rather than the size chart — and it stays where you put it when they lunge at a squirrel.
The chest strap sits below the breastbone. Not across the throat. No coughing, no gagging, no pressure on the airway.
Quick-snap buckle. On and off in seconds, without the doorstep wrestling match.
Soft nylon webbing that sits flat against the body, including under the front legs — the place most harnesses rub.
One colourway. We make it in one neutral colour because we'd rather make one thing properly than eight things in eight colours.

For dogs who lean, the payoff of pulling is gone
A usual harness lets them drive with their shoulders — the strongest part of them. The TOBI Harness clips at the front. When they hit the lead, a martingale loop closes gently across the chest and turns them toward you. Nothing yanks the throat. The pull simply stops getting them anywhere, so a walk is calm enough for training to begin.
The loop does the turning
Forward pressure closes the martingale across the chest so they face you instead of winning the next few metres.
No correction, no drama
It does not punish. It just removes the reward of leaning, which is what most everyday pullers are practising.
Room for real training
Walks become manageable enough to teach, instead of a shoulder contest you cannot win on the pavement.
What our dog parents have to say
Zeus - Staffy (Age 2)
"Less strain on his neck, compared to other harnesses we've tried and redirects him when he lunges"
Bruce - Boxer Staffy Cross (Age 5)
"Allowed us to enjoy a walk in the park without having my arm pulled off!"
Baxter - Labrador (Age 6)
"The first harness we've tried in 6 years that actually reduces his pulling - so much easier"
Lottie - Golden Retriever (Age 5)
"Lottie is so strong, i struggled to walk her myself using a normal lead and collar. TOBI makes it so much easier"
Lottie - Cockerpoo (Age 9)
"Anyone with a cockerpoo understands how crazy they can be on the lead, it feels a lot more controlled now"
High on the neck
Below the breastbone
The strap lives under the breastbone
Slide the chest strap down so it sits below the breastbone, not across the throat. Nothing tightens on the airway. You get a clear chest, a free neck, and a dog who can breathe while the front clip does its job.
Below the breastbone — not a collar on the neck
No coughing, gagging, or pressure on the airway
Back-clip lets them lean. Front clip does not.
A back-clip harness loads the shoulders dogs are built to pull with.
This one clips at the front so the same lean is redirected across the chest.

Four points of fit
Neck and chest adjust independently so the harness fits your dog, not a size chart, and stays where you put it when they lunge. Measure the chest first. Under 48cm, this is not the harness.
Frequently Asked Questions
Olivia signed the limits so you are not buying a miracle. Use this if you want walks manageable enough that training can actually happen.
Which size does my dog need?
Measure round the chest, just behind the front legs, and use the size finder, it’ll tell you in about thirty seconds. S is 48–61cm, M is 60–71cm, L is 69–81cm and XL is 80–98cm.
My dog is between M and L. Which one?
They fit a similar chest, so this one catches people out. The difference is the webbing: M is 2.0cm, L is 2.5cm.
If your dog pulls but you can manage them, go M. If they really lean into it, properly hauling you - go L. The wider webbing holds its shape better under load.
What if it doesn’t fit?
Firstly we will Facetime to ensure your fitting is correct, and if after the call its still not right - send it back to us and we'll swap it for you.
Will it rub under the legs?
Not if it’s fitted right, and that’s usually the problem when a harness does. The webbing is soft nylon and sits flat, and the chest strap goes below the breastbone rather than across the windpipe - so no coughing or gagging either.
There’s a four-minute fitting video in the box. Do watch it before the first walk; it genuinely makes the difference.
Can my dog escape from it?
Four adjustment points and a proper fit make that very unlikely. The usual culprit is a harness left too loose - you want two fingers underneath, no more.
Can I use it with a puppy?
Yes, but tell the size finder their age and it’ll flag if they’re near the top of a size. Puppies change shape fast, and a harness that’s too big doesn’t redirect a pull - it just slides.
Buy the size that fits now so it works while they’re learning, then come back when they’ve finished growing.
Do you make one for small dogs?
Only down to a 48cm chest, so if your dog measures under that, this isn’t the one for them. The size finder will tell you honestly rather than letting you order the wrong thing.
What about really big dogs?
XL goes up to a 98cm chest, which covers most German shepherds, goldens and rottweilers. Above that, I don’t make one yet.
How do I wash it?
Machine at 30 in a laundry bag, or soapy water and a brush for the muddy bits. Air dry - don’t put it on a radiator or in the tumble dryer, it’ll shorten the life of the webbing.
