| Won't Even Walk! My 2 months old yorkie won't even walk with a harness on! I'm trying to train him around the house so he will get used to it.. but once I put it on him, he won't even walk at all! What should I do?!?! |

| Put the harness, give extra yummy treats and take the harness off. When he is comfortable with that, start putting the harness on before feeding him. After he eats take it off. Then do the above with the leash attached to the harness, but without holding the leash - just let it drag. Then do the above while you hold the leash. He'll get used to it if you're patient! Just don't try to force it too fast.
