Harness recommendations
I absolutely love my figure of 8 lead to walk casper. But when on the beach or in the woods I like to have him on a long lead so he can go and explore or splash in the sea etc. unfortunately he pulls a lot (I'm pretty sure I have one arm longer than the other now ) and I can't find a long figure of 8 lead. So I'm thinking a good harness might be of use just for when I have him in the woods, fields or beach. I've tried several harnesses in the past and he has pulled on every single one. Can anyone suggest one that might work? I've tried the halti with him and that failed miserably so using that with a long lead isn't an option.

Re: Harness recommendations
I would keep him on the figure of 8 until you get to the place, and then switch him to the long line on arrival. It won't matter if he pulls when he's on the line anyway I would imagine? So as long as it's a sturdy harness, and comfortable for him to run in I would suggest a trixie padded harness for comfort. I have used both of these styles with our long line.

Re: Harness recommendations
We use a Sporn non-pull harness for when we want her to a bit more freedom but still want her tethered. It's lightweight and doesn't rub or twist like some can.
