| Inevitable mats? Do ALL yorkies mat from wearing their harnesses? It seems my male always gets matted right where his harness wraps around him. Any way around it? |

| Seems that SoCal or someone had some harnesses made with satin lining and I think it was for that reason. If your yorkie is a puppy, hopefully the hair type will change and it won't mat so much after it is mature.

| I hope so! He's almost 10 months old, so maybe soon he'll quit matting. |

| HMmm, you might want to evaluate your harness. And try some alternative styles. |

| I heard somewhere that you should use a round one, the flat ones cause matting, But I haven't found one yet.
