TRAININGS-PAKET
The set for the dog that pulls: the Explorer Harness turns a surge into a turn through its front D-ring, and the Explorer Adjustable Leash is the lead you do the training on, short at heel with no stretch, so the dog meets the same boundary every walk, then long at the park as the reward. A padded handle, four adjustment points and a tag ring on the harness; a locking swivel clip and a waist buckle on the lead. Pick the harness size and colour and the leash colour separately, for less than the two apart. When the pulling stops, the City Bundle is the next set.

How it works
The harness, the lead, and who the kit is for
The harness: a front clip that turns the pull, and a handle you will use more than you think
Clip the lead to the front D-ring on the chest plate. When your dog surges, the pull comes from the side and the body turns back toward you.
- Nothing on the throatNo pressure on the throat, and a dog that learns quickly that pulling gets it nowhere.
- Back ring for loose-lead walksOnce loose-lead walking is reliable, move the clip to the back ring.
- Two fingers flat, and it holdsFour adjustment points at the neck and chest plus elasticated chest straps that move with the ribcage hold the harness on deep-chested dogs, nervous backers-out and slim whippets when every strap is set to two fingers flat, while the shoulders swing freely, and breathable mesh padding sits against the skin on long, hot walks.
- A handle for kerbs and liftsThe padded top handle is for kerbs, car doors, stairs and the dog that appears off-lead around a corner: a calm, even hold without grabbing at the collar, and the way a senior or post-surgery dog gets lifted without twisting a hip. 3M reflective trim for the early walk and a built-in ring for the Smart ID Tag finish it.
The lead: short, no stretch, the same information every walk
Training works when the dog gets the same information every time, and that is what this lead is built to give. The adjuster slides along the webbing and the loop it makes sets the length.
- At your knee for trainingPushed all the way in, the dog is at your knee on the front ring for the training walk, with the padded handle as your traffic handle.
- The footpath and the parkIn the middle for the footpath once the walking is coming; let all the way out for the park and the verge, where the nose goes down as the reward.
- No stretch, on purposeIt is plain webbing with no bungee, on purpose: a lead that stretches gives the dog half a metre at the moment you need none, and a retractable teaches that pulling earns distance.
- A locking swivel clipThe clip is an aluminium carabiner with a locking sleeve on the gate and a swivel at its base, so it cannot be pushed open against a harness ring and never twists. Reflective stitching runs down both edges, a small ring beside the handle takes the Explorer Dual Pocket Pouch with the treats, and the buckle in the handle opens so the lead goes round your waist, for later, once the dog walks well and you could stop it by hand.
The maths, and who the kit is for
The kit costs less than an Explorer Harness and an Explorer Adjustable Leash bought apart, the same in every size and colour, and the strike-through on this page is the two parts at today's prices, checked on both pages before this was written.
- Who it is forA dog that pulls, lunges or is still learning, and the puppy starting from the first walk; and a home that wants the harness and the lead to match, or not, because the harness colour and the leash colour are two separate choices, and the Rainbow harness pairs with any of the eight lead colours. Three things the kit is not.
- Not a fix on its ownA front clip redirects the pull and the lead keeps the boundary steady, and the training, with rewards for a loose lead, is what removes it; the loose-lead guide below is the method.
- Not under about 5 kgThe lead's aluminium clip is heavy on a smaller dog.
- Not once it walks wellThe dog that already walks well wears a collar and walks on the City Bundle, which is where this kit's buyers end up. One more thing it does not include: the Smart ID Tag, and the collar the dog still wears at home for its council tag. The harness has a ring for the tag on the walk.

Three sizing rules
-
The harness, by the chest: measure the widest point just behind the front legs, then the neck low down where a collar would sit; weight is a guide only. Small chest 43 to 56 cm, Medium 53 to 68 cm, Large 65 to 82 cm. Between two sizes, go up: a harness at the tight end of its range rubs behind the elbows, and at the loose end it slips. Fit check: two fingers flat under every strap, the front D-ring on the breastbone and not the throat. The kit price is the same in every size.
-
The lead is one size for every colour: 2.5 cm nylon webbing, about 140 g, and a slider that sets it to three lengths. For dogs from about 5 kg. There is no upper limit on the dog, only on the handler: waist mode is for a dog you could stop by hand, and not for the dog you are still training.
-
Two colours, two decisions: the harness colour and the leash colour are picked separately, matching or not, and the photos follow the harness; the Rainbow harness pairs with any of the eight lead colours. Who the kit is for: the dog that pulls or is still learning. The dog that already walks well wears a collar and takes the City Bundle.

How to
How to run the training walk on this set
Fit the harness to two fingers
Open all four adjusters, neck loop over the head with the chest plate at the front, click the side buckles under the ribs, then tighten the chest first and the neck second until two fingers slide flat under every strap and the front D-ring sits on the breastbone.
Clip front, set the lead short
Lead on the front D-ring, slider all the way in, clip gate closed and the sleeve locked. This is the training walk: the dog at your knee, the padded handle as your traffic handle.
Reward the loose lead, let the sniff be the payoff
Treats from the pouch on the lead's ring every few loose steps; when the dog surges, stand still and let the front ring turn it, then walk on. At the park, let the lead all the way out and let the nose go down. The method is in the loose-lead guide below.
Move to the back ring, then the waist
When loose-lead walking is reliable, clip to the back D-ring for the everyday walk. Hands-free round the waist only once you could stop the dog by hand, and never beside traffic. Never wrap the lead round your hand.
Off at home, checked monthly
Take the harness off indoors and look behind the elbows for rubbing. Once a month: every buckle's click, the D-rings, the clip's sleeve and swivel, the stitching at the handle and the clip. Re-fit a puppy every two weeks; retire either piece when the webbing frays.
Vet noteDr Duncan Houston, emergency veterinarian
A no-pull harness reduces pulling by redirecting it, and this lead has no stretch, so the dog meets the same boundary every time; neither trains the dog on its own, so pair the front clip with reward-based loose-lead work. Never let a dog that pulls hard walk on a collar alone: repeated pressure on the throat damages the windpipe, raises pressure inside the eyes, and in small and flat-faced breeds can worsen a collapsing trachea. Fit every strap to two fingers flat, take the harness off at home, check behind the elbows for rubbing, and retire it once the webbing frays or a buckle stops clicking. Never wrap the lead around your hand or wrist: a lunge with the webbing wound round a finger breaks fingers. Waist mode is for a dog that already walks well and that you could stop by hand, never beside traffic and never with a dog strong enough to pull you over. Never tether a dog and walk away. The long setting is for open ground, not the footpath. Check the clip's locking sleeve every month.
Why these two
The harness turns the pull. The lead teaches the walk. Neither does it alone.
Two things bring walking gear into my emergency room: the dog that backed out of a loose harness and ran onto a road, and the dog that spent years pulling into a collar and arrives with a sore, coughing throat, in small breeds a windpipe that is starting to collapse. This set is my answer to both, and I want to be exact about what each half does.
- Front clip turns the pullThe harness changes the physics: with the lead on the front D-ring, a surge comes from the side and the dog turns back toward you, with nothing on the throat, and four adjustment points with elasticated chest straps hold it on a deep chest and a slim one when every strap is set to two fingers.
- Three lead lengths, no stretchThe lead changes the information: it is plain webbing with no stretch, set short for the training walk, so the dog meets the same boundary in the same place every time, and a bungee or a retractable teaches the opposite. Then long at the park, because the sniff is the reward.
- Neither trains the dog aloneWhat neither does is train the dog. That is you, a pocket of treats and the loose-lead method linked further down, and the honest reason this is called the Training Bundle rather than the no-pull bundle.
- The handleThe padded handle is the thing I reach for most: kerbs, the car, the vet table. Bridie has two replaced hips, so a harness that lifts evenly is not a nice-to-have in my house; she and Kiko wear the Large.
- The mathsThe two cost less together than apart, and the strike-through on this page is the two parts at today's prices; I checked both pages before writing this.
- Vet-designed and testedBridie and Kiko tested every version.

What is in the kit, and what do I save?
One Explorer Harness in the size and colour you pick, and one Explorer Adjustable Leash in the colour you pick. The kit costs less than the two bought apart, the same in every size and colour. The price struck through on this page is the two parts at today's prices; I checked both pages before writing this. The Smart ID Tag for the harness ring is sold separately.
Does a no-pull harness actually stop pulling?
It changes the physics. With the lead on the front D-ring, a surge forward turns your dog sideways and back toward you, so pulling stops paying off, and most owners feel the difference on the first walk. It is not a substitute for training, which is why the lead in this kit has no stretch: the dog meets the same boundary in the same place every time, and you reward the loose steps. Pair the front clip with the loose-lead walking guide and the habit changes for good. A bungee or a retractable lead teaches the opposite, which is why neither is in this kit.
Which harness size, and will it suit a puppy?
Measure the chest at the widest point behind the front legs and the neck where a collar sits, then use the table: Small chest 43 to 56 cm, Medium 53 to 68 cm, Large 65 to 82 cm. The ranges overlap and the tape beats the scales; between two sizes, go up. A puppy can start from the Small band at a chest of 43 cm, and from about 5 kg, which is where the lead's aluminium clip stops being heavy: introduce the harness at home with treats before the first walk and check the fit every two weeks while they grow.
Can the harness and the lead be different colours?
Yes. The harness colour and the leash colour are two separate rows, so a Blue harness with a Yellow lead is as easy as a matching pair, and the Rainbow harness pairs with any of the eight plain lead colours, because the lead does not come in Rainbow. The photos follow the harness colour and show the lead to match, so read the leash row, not the picture, for what ships.
How do I run the training walk with the three lengths?
Front D-ring, slider all the way in, treats in the pouch on the lead's ring. Walk; when the lead goes slack, reward; when the dog surges, stand still and let the front ring turn it back, then walk on. That is the whole method, repeated, and the loose-lead walking guide has the detail. Use the middle setting on the footpath once the walking is coming, and let the lead all the way out at the park so the sniff is the payoff. The lead is not a long line: recall practice at 5 or 10 m needs one.
Can my dog escape from it, and can it wear the harness all day?
Four adjustment points and elasticated chest straps make the harness very hard to back out of, provided every strap is fitted to two fingers flat and no more; dogs that reverse out of harnesses are almost always wearing one that is too loose at the chest. For a known escape artist, a second lead on the back ring gives two points of contact. Take the harness off at home: worn around the clock it traps moisture and rubs behind the elbows, and the dog still needs a collar with ID indoors.
Training Bundle or City Bundle: which one?
Same lead, different first half. If your dog pulls, lunges at other dogs, or is a puppy learning to walk, this one: the harness turns the pull and the lead keeps the boundary steady. If your dog already walks calmly on a collar, the City Bundle: the Explorer Collar carries the ID and the reflective stitching, and the same Adjustable Leash clips to its D-ring. Most dogs that start on this kit end up on that one, and the lead moves across with them.
What if it arrives damaged, or I picked the wrong harness size?
Email hello@woopf.com as soon as you notice, with a photo, your order number and which piece it is, and it is covered. Wrong harness size and it is unworn in its packaging: email within 14 days and we will look at a swap.
