2. Wrap two lower straps (D) around pet’s chest, behind front legs
3. Fasten Nesting Buckles (C) on both sides
4. Adjust all straps to fit comfortably
Warning!
Do not use chest plate D-ring (G) or leash hitch (B) for securing in a vehicle.

FOR LEASH ONLY
Take a piece of the Nesting
Buckle in each hand.
Pass the smaller piece
through the wide slot of the
larger piece. Kurgo logo

Pull flat and snug the lower straps for a secure fit.
To use as a walking harness:
The Kurgo Tru-Fit Smart Harness™ is designed with the owner’s and dog’s
walking needs in mind. The front chest plate provides a centrally located
D-Ring for leash attachment, which helps deter your dog from pulling.
When your dog pulls, the force redirects them to one side or the other
as you walk together. This sends them back in your direction and reduces
pulling. The easy on-and-off design, and multiple adjustment points
makes the Kurgo harness a great alternative to other training harnesses
and collars.
For training purposes only, do not use with aggressive dogs.
To use as a vehicle seatbelt harness:
Securing your dog safely into the vehicle may be done in two ways.
A) Best Practice - to reduce excursion (pitching forward)
Attach the tether's carabiner through the top layer of the harness's
back strap (A). Next, attach carabiner to buckled vehicle seatbelt,
leaving tether loose.
B) Good Practice
Loop the tether handle around the seatbelt, passing back through
itself. Next, clip the carabiner through the top layer of the harness's
back strap (A). This set up allows for more movement for your dog.
