The Julius-K9 Mantrailing Harness is distinguished by its careful design and meticulous workmanship, focusing on ergonomics, comfort, and safety. Thanks to the use of certified, proven materials, it is reliable and durable. The harness consists of three independent parts, interconnected by straps, allowing it to dynamically adapt to the animal, providing complete freedom of movement. The chest section is lined with soft, pleasant-to-touch neoprene, which does not cause pressure or irritation. A flexible leash connector effectively dampens unwanted, sudden jerks during searches, aiding the dog's work.
How to Fit the Julius-K9 Mantrailing Harness:
For the harness to function properly and be comfortable for your dog, it must be properly sized and precisely adjusted to the dog's build. Adjust the straps leading to the neck piece so that the upper edge of the chest piece is at shin height and the padding lies flat against the chest. In the section between the neck and the rear piece, ensure that the collar does not extend beyond the line of the dog's two hind legs. Move the back piece far enough back so that the back straps of the chest pad don't cover the front legs. The straps should be tight enough to fit your hand under the back piece, but don't let them get too loose, as this can cause the harness to shift sideways during use. When standing, the harness may feel too loose—the adjustable sternum piece, neck piece, and back piece may slip slightly—but this will resolve as soon as your dog starts moving and pulls forward. All straps and components will then be in place.

Note: The JK9 Mantrailing harness is not suitable for loose wear, hiking, or running with a dog. It was specially developed for search and rescue work, where the dog always moves on a taut leash in front of its owner. For walks in urban areas, we recommend the IDC Powerharness, and for longer trips, the IDC Longwalk harness.
