Whether you are heading out for a brisk morning walk or packing the car for a weekend getaway, the Ancol Viva Exercise & Travel Dog Harness in Blue is one of those pieces of gear that makes life with a dog just a little bit smoother. This is the Medium size, designed for a girth of 45cm to 65cm, which is the perfect range for active, medium-sized breeds like Beagles, Cocker Spaniels, or French Bulldogs.

The first thing you’ll notice is how much thought has gone into the padded chest area. Unlike traditional collars that can put a lot of strain on a dog’s throat—especially if they get excited by a passing bicycle—this harness redistributes that pressure across the chest and shoulders. The padding is soft and breathable, so even if your dog has a shorter coat, you don’t have to worry about the straps causing irritation or “harness rub” during longer treks.

What really makes the Viva range a standout is the dual-leash clip system. You have a sturdy D-ring on the back for your everyday walks, but there is also an attachment point on the chest. This is a lifesaver if you are working on lead training; it gives you a bit more leverage to gently guide your dog back toward you if they start to pull. When the walk is over and it’s time to hop in the car, you don’t need to switch gear. The built-in seatbelt loop allows you to secure them safely in the back seat, helping you stay focused on the road while keeping them protected from sudden stops.

The vibrant blue color is a classic look that stays bright even after multiple trips through the rain. It’s made from high-density nylon that’s tough enough to handle daily wear but light enough that it won’t weigh your dog down. With quick-release buckles for easy fitting and reinforced stitching at all the stress points, it’s a reliable, comfortable, and very practical choice for any owner who wants the best for their medium-sized explorer.
