Julius-K9 Ask To Pet Me Harness Patch - Large is a pair of interchangeable patches for the chest strap of a JULIUS-K9 IDC harness. This one reads Ask To Pet Me, which invites the right behaviour instead of only forbidding the wrong one.
Key Features
-
Hook-and-loop, so it changes in seconds: It presses onto the panel on the side of the chest strap and peels off again. One harness and a few patches cover the walk, the vet and the school run.
-
Sold as a pair: JULIUS-K9 supply these in twos, one for each side of the chest strap, so the dog reads the same from either direction.
-
Phosphorescent: JULIUS-K9 describe the standard patches as phosphorescent, which means they hold a faint glow for a while after being in the light. Treat that as a nice touch and not as a safety feature.
Getting The Size Right
- Baby 1 patches are 8 x 2 cm, Small are 11 x 3 cm and Large are 16 x 5 cm.
- Order by your harness size, not by how big the patch looks. A Large patch on a Mini harness overhangs the strap and peels off on the first bush it brushes past. Tell us which harness you have and we will send the right pair.
Fitting Them
- Press it down along its whole length and run a thumb over the edges. A patch pressed on at the middle only is the one you find on the pavement later.
- Take the patches off before you wash the harness, and wash them by hand in cool water.
- Brush the hook-and-loop out when a patch stops gripping. Hair and sand in the loops are almost always the problem rather than the patch itself.
Good To Know
- This pair is the Large size, 16 x 5 cm, and it fits harness sizes 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4.
- Supplied as a pair, one patch for each side of the chest strap.
- For JULIUS-K9 IDC harnesses. It needs the hook-and-loop panel on the chest strap, so it will not attach to a plain harness from another brand.
- It buys you a second, which is usually enough. Most people reach for a strange dog before they think, and a patch at chest height in plain words is read sooner than anything you can say from the other end of the leash.
- It does not stop anybody, children especially, so keep managing the distance yourself. And it is not a legal status: it does not certify your dog as an assistance animal and it grants no right of access anywhere in the UAE.
- We stock a wide choice of patch designs in each size. Ask us for the current list if you want a set.
