| Sunny is thrilled with her new Buddy Belt! And so am I! i have been on the hunt for an easy harness for weeks. A YT'er sent me one, and it works but Sunny still struggled and fussed. i thought to myself there has to be an easier way....went to a local doggie boutique in Jacksonville and the store owner asked what she could do to help me today...I was on a mission to find a new harness and a new pet carrier/purse (Christmas money was sent to me via Parents....thanks Mom and Dad!!!) anyway, she said she had a harness in the back that wouldnt fit most dogs...too small...she thought it would fit Sunny...and low and behold, she brought out the Buddy Belt! Hot pink! Room to grow! Fits perfect! Woo hoo!! Got a really beautiful pet carrier/purse too, for a great price! Merry Christmas to Sunny and I!! Yay! Bobbi

| I have never heard a bad review on a Buddy Belt! But it needs to be the real thing! I bought one on ebay that looked like a Buddy Belt. The design was exactly the same but they had used a very stiff leather and I did not like how hard it was. I worried it might rub them raw! So, we have never used it. I have heard the REAL Buddy Belt is a nice soft leather! I have seen many of the ones on ebay like I have. So, if you buy online, beware! There are some counterfeits and they are not the same. Glad you got a good one!

| Thats too bad....the one I got for Sunny is the real deal, thankfully....there has got to be a way to soften yours up! Much like a baseball glove..they sell conditioner for it...you rub it on and put it in a warm oven for like 7 mins and the glove comes out supple and you work at it for a bit and the leather becomes pliable! Two teenage boys...we have gone thru our share of baseball gloves, cleats, etc...might be worth a shot. Bobbi [/B] Quote:

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I highly recommend this place for authentic Buddy Belts. Also, if you do a google, you can find coupons for free shipping and at least 10% of the harness, and possibly more. Fast shipping too, my first one took over a month, this one came in less than a week with regular ground shipping. Buddy Belt Here's an example of some of the codes you can paste in, on your order. Muttropolis Coupons & Muttropolis Promo Codes I think if you sign up with them, and give them your email, you also get a coupon for so much off.

| I purchased two Buddy Belts for Gio and Natty and they were too hard, also. I contacted the company direct and they are now making a new soft leather Buddy Belt and they are as soft as can be. What a world of difference. I am sure if you contact them they can advise you. They were very very helpful

| We plan on getting a couple of Buddy Belts once our current harnesses wear out a little more... I just can't seem to get them to wear out So we might be waiting a while!
