  • How do I put on the Joyride Harness?

    Proper fit is very important. Please refer to the guide here on how to get started. It includes a video under the Joyride Harness Instructions section.

    Do you have an escape artist? Also refer to the bonus guide here for added tips.

  • How do we describe the technology behind the harness about spinning instead of pulling?

    It's a training harness, so the side rings are essentially training rings. When you walk walk your dog and as soon as their dog starts pulling, they will get spun around and won't be able to pull.

  • Are the harnesses tested and safe for travelling purposes in a car?

    They are fine for travel but they are not safety restraints if not utilized with a seatbelt and carseat.

  • Do you offer payment plans?

    Yes! We are happy to announce that we now offer Klarna and Shop Pay! Be sure to select your chosen method at checkout.

  • Can the harness be left on the pet all day?

    Technically yes, and while the harness is comfortable, we don't recommend it as dogs need their regular, natural comfort.

  • Are you the same as ThePugLifeStore.com?

    Excellent question! We recently changed the company name from Pug Life Harness to Joyride Harness. So yes, we are the same company. And don’t worry, the harness is exactly the same as before. The name is only thing that has changed.

  • I e-mailed support but haven’t heard back.

    Please allow up to 7 business days to receive a response as we handle a high volume of e-mails. Support and social media teams operate Monday thru Friday. If you are in need of an exchange or return set up, we have a new system in place that makes the process easy! You can get started here: https://joyrideharness.loopreturns.com

  • My dog doesn’t pull… is this still a good harness?

    Of course! Our harness isn’t just made to alleviate or eliminate pulling, but it’s a solution for dog owners that have a hard time getting other harnesses on their dog. It’s easy on and easy off! That, and it’s super comfortable for dogs to wear. Collars and other tight harnesses risk damage to the body like the trachea. If your dog isn’t a puller, we recommend using the main D-ring on the back-center of the harness.

  • Can I buy this harness at any retail store?

    Yes, be sure to check in with your local mom and pop pet store. We’re currently carried in retail stores in California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and more. Ask your local retailer to reach out to us if interested in carrying Joyride Harness.

  • Do you offer quantity discounts?

    You bet your sweet pug we do! We offer quantity discounts on orders of 6 or more harnesses. Ordering 6 or more? Reach out to us to get a custom coupon code.

  • Don’t harnesses make dogs pull MORE?

    That depends on the make of the harness. Our harnesses on the other hand were designed to be a training tool to alleviate and eliminate the amount of pulling dogs dish out on walks. The side ring technology is what makes this work in addition to the distribution and structure of the fabric.

  • Has this harness been tested and approved by experienced dog trainers?

    Most definitely! You’ll even find videos of them talking about their Joyride Harness experience on our website.

  • Where are you located and based out of?

    HQ is based out of SUNNY Los Angeles, California!

  • My dog is a houdini and escapes from everything. Will this work and keep them from escaping?

    Every Houdini finds their end and the escapes stop here! These are great for dogs that tend to get out of their harness. You see, dogs are able to escape harnesses due to lack of adjustability for the perfect fit. Even a slight discrepancy in how the harness fits may allow your furbaby to find a way to get out of it. We recommend a slightly snug fit (but not too tight) and your dog won’t be able to back out or escape from it! Need a little assistance in using the harness? Check out this review and this page describing how the harnesses work.

  • Can I use these harnesses for my cat?

    We are pro-cat and have customers who have used our harnesses for their cats with no issues, but we do want to remind you…cats are made of liquid so there’s risk with any harness unless it’s the perfect fit. Keep that in mind while you shop!

  • Do I still use this harness once my dog stops pulling?

    Of course! Once the harness has trained your dog to walk beside you, you can start using the main D-ring on the back-center of the harness. You can use the side ring for accessories or leave it be! Up to you.

  • Can I exchange it if it doesn’t fit?
