I am looking for a harness for my 7 year old . He is 51 inches tall and about 79 lbs. will this one work ?

This will not fit a 7 year old. I am 6'1" 220 and there is plenty room for someone bigger but would never go down to 79lbs.

I kept my son in the five point harness until he literally outgrew it height wise. He was 7.5 years old and about 53 inches tall. He weighs 60 pounds. He is now in the seat belt positioning booster and does quite well with it.

Yes. My dog is over 90 lbs and there's room to adjust on him no problem. He's built like a hound dog with the tight musculature and tucked up tummy but I wouldn't have any trouble adjusting his Large size harness to suit a more muscular or longer haired breed.

My son is 10/12 and it works perfectly for him. Not sure of his height, but he weighs about 80 pounds.

I'll tell you MY considerations. I have a 120-lb Newfoundland (and bought LG.) with REALLY weak hind-end and I use the harness to take his rear weight when he can no longer walk un-aided (after dog-park!). The best thing about the fit is the HANDLE is close to his body, and then I don't have to "lift" high, I can keep straight arm and still be helping relieve his weight (I'm 5'-7" female). If your shepard isn't as tall or you're really tall, then you'd be stooping and will be awkward. example, I can pet my dog without bending down - he's at that height. I've only been using the back-end section (so far) and I like it alot. It has a band under "boy-parts" that will snap out of the way to pee, but for walking, it needs to be re-attached. Your dog would probably fit the MED, as my dog is very big breed and the Large is perfect. They are adjustable too. I also have two of another product I use constantly for quik in/out house and car, and that is a sling pet carrier from Dr Foster&Smith catalog for $10 and the MED is best, because the handles are longer. I like both items for different purposes. GOOD LUCK!

Hard to say I have A LARGE CAT and he is well proportioned and it fit him fine. If your cat is long the harness will/should just sit closer to his shoulder blades versus further down his spine. As far as being thin the harness is adjustable so should work. I would order and try it on him that would be the best way to determine. Good Luck!

I think you will need the medium size. My dog was 80, then down to 70 pounds during and after his two knee surgeries. We had the large harness and adjusted it down to as small as it would go. We had the front and rear sections and kept it on him all the time. He spent a lot of time in his kennel, and the handles made it easier to help him out of the kennel and down the one back step to the yard for bathroom breaks. I don't know how we would have managed without it. Well worth the money.

I used it for my son who was 7mths old at the time and it was perfect he too was small. It should be fine. It is for up to 30lbs

I bought it for my chihuahua who is 2.50kilos havn't used it a lot the small is still a bit big for him and very stiff. I have been told harnesses can be a hazzard for older people due to possible injury. Hopefully will fit as he grows but I don't think so as he is only going to get to about 3kilos. Sorry not much help to you.

Hi --- I am using the harness on a dog which weighs in around 135 pounds... I purchased the largest one and it fits well ... much easier to walk him. Unfortunately I do not know what type your doggie is... hope this helps.

the small should work fine. it'd very adjustable. also this is the only harness my wiggly little Pom can't wiggle out of and he doesn't chew it like he did with stiffer ones.

It should fit him ok. I can't say if it will be strong enough. Our dog is not that big but once we started using the harness, he quit pullin. Did for us what it said.

I'm not entirely sure but I researched it and it should work. If it doesn't work you can go to Best Buy and they can look up exactly which harness you need. They usually have them in stock.

We just checked our Medium harness on two other Goldens we have. One is about 75 lbs but very sleek and narrow around the waist. The other is about 82 lbs and though he isn't fat, he is very stout. Around the waist, the sleek one is 24" and the blocky one is 29". There is a clip on the harness that secures it around the waist. At the max extension (it is slightly adjustable) it isn't quite big enough for the bigger boy but it fits just fine for the skinny one. So I would measure around the waist and check, if your dog is more than 28" around the waist, I would go to another vendor and get a large, or an XL. You could have a 110 lb Greyhound that it (a medium) would fit and a 82 lb Golden that it wouldn't. We just checked our Medium harness on two other Goldens we have.

hello, yes it will fit him if you order the one that is 29 or 30 in tall. but I would look for a different model that has more cushioning. this one is quite hard even though it has padding on seat and looks good.

Our cat weighs 20 lbs. I want to exercise him; what size harness would you advise?

My 2yr old boy is 37.5 in tall and his head now barely fits under the canopy, when it is used. If not using the canopy, it might still work for you. I would focus on what the company states as the appropriate age/size, though.
