Bungee Cord Dog Harness

After tiring of the leash end always slipping down around the dog's neck, causing him to frequently get tangled up in the the leash line then dangling at his feet, I went looking for alternatives. I saw a harness was the answer and saw one that was just a bungee cord with a clip on to a collar where the hooks would be. Hey, I can do that much.

Step 1 Take a standard bungee cord

As you can see in the photo, I started with a short bungee cord.   This fits medium-sized dogs well. Because of its elasticity, there is a lot of room for size variation while still being comfortable for the dog. For much larger or smaller dogs, try a few different sized cords, placing the cord around the dog's body just behind the front legs. The cord's hooks should reach to the collar without being slack or uncomfortably stretched and taut.
