Love the harness EXCEPT the hook on the front slides to the side when i am correcting her, Have I hooked it up wrong> How do I fix this problem?

It's supposed to slide to the side. The idea is that it redirects their pulling back towards you.

It sounds like maybe the harness is not fitted on her. Make sure you adjust the straps so the harness fits snugly. The purpose of the front hook is to redirect the dog when they are pulling so a little pulling to the side is normal but not so much that it should bother you.

I don't use a harness just attach the safety strap, that his attached to the seat belt, to the spot where the leash attaches to the metal part. She can still move around but neither of mine do a lot of that. I love my pet car seats.

Yes, I have no problem getting this on my finiky dalmatian. the front part loosens enough that it's easy to slip over her head and the buckles to secure it around her chest are easy to hook, then the front straps tighten with a simple pull. the harder part is attaching her to the teather once she's in the car. she now knows that the harness means (usually) we get to go somewhere fun, and for short trips (like to the vet) the harness has trained her well enough to stay in her seat that she doesn't need it to just go down the street (though most times we use it anyways).

No, it's worked great. You should unplug the harness and be sure that you haven't bent one of the pins over. It's pretty common for this to happen with electrical connections

Just realized there are hooks in the bottom that the strap works with a harness. I had put a cushion in the bottom and did not see these.

I think you might have put it together "BACKWARDS" because there are no tools , or change sides with the velcro ,so look at the picture on the box and see if that helps, and if not call k&h...there; out in colorado and are very helpful...good luck and when you get it right your going to love it!!!!!!!!!!

The reason I discovered that the harness was not attached properly was because I has a difficut time tightening the harness straps. Once the harness was well attached I had no problem tightening the harness straps

It isn't completely flat on the bottom. We never removed our harnesses, but got an infant insert. One of the soft cuddle inserts, or a super soft blanket. She was great like that.

This is a problem I had to work out as well. I found that a couple things help keep the collar well-placed. First, if it is too tight the collar will slip to the side and get stuck there. If the collar is slightly loose, gravity will keep the device hanging low. In order to make sure the collar still stays in a position to feel the vibrations, I leave my dogs other (normal) collar on. I place the shock collar above their regular collar (close to the ears) so that it stays higher on the throat.It took some time to adjust the collar properly. I had to play around with how tight the collar was. Even a little change can make a big difference. This is a problem I had to work out as well.

The harness rotates a little bit when on my welsh corgi but I don't have it tight on him. The optional lead that connects the two clips may help with the rotating.

Mine goes then stops like the belt is slipping. Tried adjusting but did no good. Any ideas? Only used three times now.

If you don't have hook on one strap side, and loop on the other, then it is indeed missing something. Look at the picture of the vest. If yours doesn't resemble it, then return it. BTW- I found the SafetyPup people to be very interested in the satisfaction of their customers. I suspect they will make good ASAP on any issues you may have.

When I put it on my dog, I strap it around her neck first then put her arms through the holes. It doesn't sound like the same one. I really, really like this harness! My dog doesn't pull at all!

I use the front loop. It is a little loose but I don't have concerns she will slip out. It helps with pulling.

Don't know that your doing anything wrong. We just step on the pedal, drop the diaper in, and let go of the pedal and it pulls it down. When you change your bag are you pulling it through some and then tying the knot? That might could be a problem. Maybe when you change the bag pull down about a 1/2 to a foot of bag tie knot and then see if that helps maybe its just been to snug. We love ours.

I had the same issue with mine. I just dint installed it. Most changing pads comes with safety straps. I changed the one it came with and bought one that is more comfortable for the baby.
