Please note the new models of the Help Em Up harness do not have clips at the base of the neck. The harness is slid over the dog's head like a collar. Also, the latest modifications mean only around 10-15% of male dogs need the u-band style hip lift.

Lengthening the strap allows you to get your shoulder under it.
