| leashes and collars any special recomended coats, collars, harnesses ? Rigos walking harness really tangles up his coat bad. I cant find an outdoor coat the will accomodate where the harness clips to the leash. With just a collar he chokes himself on walks. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I use a step in harness when I walk Cali and haven't had a problem. I would not recommend using a collar it can put too much pressure on their trachea.

| I agree with Patti, no collars. They can cause major damage. I would try the step in harness, or check out Tinkerbellscloset.com for her harness vests and dresses. They are so cute, maybe you could give that a shot. Good luck!

| I am a big believer on the Lupine H Harness as it is so easy to put on and take off - 2 clicks an you are done. http://www.catsanddogspa.com/lupineh...hpatterns.html I also have the Gooby harness and like those as well. I agree with everyone collars can hurt our little ones on walks.

| I use this for my yorkie and it seems extremely comfortable for him. http://www.pitterpatterpawz.com/ac30_SCollar_01.jpg I didn't, though, buy it from this store. I bought it from a local dog store. |

| I have just changed Pippa's harness from a nylon step in one to a soft padded one (similar to puppia) and it is fab. The old one matted her hair under her armpits but since ive used this one no matts there The make is 'Pam pet' I got it from www.petsbitsonline.co.uk

| how about getting a coat with a d-ring and that would take care of the harness as well as outdoor coat. |

| Never ever use a collar for your baby . . it is not good for them. If you are looking for a harness, I have just started making velcro vest harnesses. Please take a look and see if you'd be interested. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/desmen...TicuEBYADJ8wBh of course I am not sure if this linik works but you can PM me your e-mail and I can send it to you. |
