The Tactipup Extreme harness is designed for people who need or simply want the best possible harness for their dog. We spent 3+ years creating various prototypes, testing them in regular day-to-day use, testing them in bite work on a back-tie, testing them in tracking, as well as day-to-day patrol and landed on this design that our customers LOVE.
This harness is constructed with the best materials we could get our hands on and features 2 AustriAlpin Cobra buckles for easy on/off. Many designs on the market today have one buckle, requiring you to put the harness over the dog's head and lift one of the dog's front legs up and through the front loop before allowing you to secure the harness. Our patent pending design allows you to put the harness over the dog's head, pass the chest plate through their front legs, and then buckle each side. If your dog is reactive, amped, or generally difficult to manage, this will make your life significantly easier.
Pro Tip: If you choose "No Logo - Loop Panel for Patch" under the "Chest Logo Color" drop down, we offer a wide range of patches that are designed specifically to fit the 2.75" x 2.75" loop patch panel.

Better than I imagined! Fits our BMDS perfectly. She doesn’t pull at all now that the leash it’s hooked to her back on the vest. Easy to buckle her in. We live where it’s extremely hot and humid and the vest doesn’t phase her one bit on our morning and evening walks. She’s comfortable and so are we. Everything on this thing is overbuilt! Very impressed.
I have a very alert, active, and, at times, high strung working breed. Since I adopted him, I don’t know his complete history, so keeping him, as well as people we approach while training, safe, is of utmost importance.
He has broken standard collars and hooks easily and has chewed through leashes without a second thought - the Tactipup collar and vest are strong enough that I feel secure when walking him.
And an added bonus, the vest acts something like a Thundershirt - hugging him in a very secure way - that almost immediately calms him down. The Velcro areas have allowed me to add ‘Do Not Approach’ and ‘In Training’ patches to his vest for an added layer of security when walking him or taking him in public.
And I love the way they alert approaching people that he may be a protective or working dog, not a pet to be petted.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! That's awesome to hear that the Extreme Harness provides you with both security and comfort for your active pup! It's wonderful that the vest helps keep him calm and communicates his needs to others as well - we're honored to play a part in your pups journey! We appreciate your trust in Tactipup!
Quality made, and extremely easy to fit on pur dog!
This is my second Extreme Harness from Tactipup. I train and handle Search and Rescue dogs and I need a harness that will hold up in harsh conditions and still be comfortable for my dogs. The Extreme Harness has not let me down and I highly recommend it. I’ve had my harness for my Chocolate Lab for over a year and just got my harness for my GSP a few weeks ago.
This is my second Extreme Harness from Tactipup and I am never disappointed. I also have two Extreme collars. The quality and craftsmanship is second none. I train and handle search and rescue dogs and this is the only harness I’ll use. 100% recommend there products
