Just lay it flat under you dog, wrap it around the and then clip the straps up around the neck of the legs. My dog is a 17lb bichon.
The straps and buckles look like they would be super durable, but a lot of th seams and stitching only gets the very edge of the straps. Couldn't even test it or try on because the straps were broken.
Nacho weighs 15 lbs. Cooper is a dachshund/corgi mix and weighs 24 lbs.
The colors are very nice. Exactly as pictured. I absolutely liked the khaki color. The harness has reflective strips that glow when you shine a light at it.
English mastiff harness is easy to put on and easy to take off. This harmless leash is wonderful and great bonus accessories.
This only has a back leash attachment and no handle on the back. The clips are horrible. I have to tighten it so much that the fabric loop covers the buckle. No clips for the neck.
