Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was very disappointed, mainly because the product has changed just enough to be no longer an acceptable answer for my dog. The name changed from Sporn to YUP! on the product (see picture of the metal "webbing junction"), though Sporn is still the manufacturer. The old Sporn Non-Pulling Mesh Harness, Medium, had nice thick "webbing adjusters" (the part that goes over the shoulder) that held my dog firmly and didn't cut into my small labrador's skin/coat (almost 60 lbs at 5 years). The "elasticized mesh pad" in the front of the harness was big enough to sufficiently hold my dog's chest. Both of these pieces have changed so much that they no longer are a gentle means of walking my dog. The "webbing adjuster" is now a thin, rounded strap that cuts into my dog as she pulls. The "elasticized mesh pad" (that is "the braking stimulus") is narrower so that it doesn't fit nicely on her chest. I measured the parts with my old harness and found the length measurements were the same... it is just the widths/construction and material used that have changed. I like the color very much (brighter blue) but not the material or construction. You need a wide enough strap that it holds your dog without digging into the coat. Sorry this great product no longer meets my needs, since it was really a nice harness. (See my photos, with old vs. new materials.) (PS. I ordered a large to see if that worked better because it had the wider mesh, but the length of the "restraint cords" were so long that I could not have a close connection with my dog when I need a short leash. There would always be too long a distance between the leash and my dog.)
