2、Protect the trachea and decompress the neck
Because the chest back is tied to the dog’s chest rather than the neck, it doesn’t put pressure on the trachea. That’s why the chest back is ideal for pets with neck problems, collapsed tracheas or restricted tracheas, most typically such as a pit bull.
