Great news! Our Ruffwear Dog 🐕 Brush Guard protects the chest and belly from abrasion, and adds support when lifting and assisting dogs. Here's what Conservation Canines in the US said about the Ruffwear Brush Guard: Yes! This is an incredible piece of gear. For all those owners how have overdrive K9s, this brush guard is an essential piece to keep them as safe as possible. Too often I've seen sticks or any other pointy object get in the way of my dogs' adventuring which can result is some pretty nasty cuts. While this guard does not make the dogs impervious to backcountry brush mishaps, it reduces the danger significantly. I also am in love with the fact that this can be removed very easily from a harness but shows no sign of coming off during it's use. The velcro design is surprisingly effective! Keep in mind to care for the edges of the velcro to make sure it adheres properly, that is clear noticeable excess debris. It can go through the wash or get hosed down and performs just like new each time. The material is very durable but still light enough to dry out quickly. The brush guard also provides added support when lifting your dog by the webmaster harness handles. Honestly, if your dog is an off trail warrior, I highly recommend this product. The added protection is worth it!
