A lot of people ask questions about the difference between T shape harnesses and Y shape harnesses so I thought I would put this together with the help of a young Yoshi & Leo 🐶🐶
T Shape harnesses like the one Yoshi is wearing on the left (this photo was taken back in 2017 before I became aware of T shaped harnesses issues 😔) block your dogs shoulders as shown with the orange ovals. This causes them to change their mobility by putting more weight on their hind legs which over time can cause joint issues. As well as this, T Shape harnesses give no support to the sternum (green circle) so it pushes more on the trachea (pink oval).
Y shape harnesses like the one on the right which Leo is modelling (ours 🙈😍) you can see that there is no restrictiveness on any joints and also provides support to the sternum. 🥰
