| Another one for the buddy belt! I know in my previous post I said I wouldn't get one because my husband didn't want it. But I talked him into it, and needless to say Gizmo is now sporting one! First we got the wrong size. I was stupid, and didn't look at the tag on it that indicated weight. So, we ended up with a 3. Anywho, Gizmo loves it! He doesn't scratch at it like he did with his old harness. I try to take it off of him, but he runs away and just frolics around the house with it on still. I love that it's leather, but it's softer so it won't irritate the skin in his little arm pits . He seems to walk better on a leash as well. And with that being said, I love that it's adjustable enough that I can just throw it on over a hoodie or shirt! For the buddy belt! Money well spent.

| We love the Buddy Belts. Teddy wears Max's old one and it is closing in on 3 years old. It takes a lot of abuse and still looks almost brand new.

| Love our BB, too! We also did not get the right sizing at first and I wasn't happy with it. But now I just love it!

| I'm glad you got the buddy belt and love it! We have two and I absolutely love them and could not imagine using any other harness.

| Some dog boutiques carry them, but most people order them online from places like: Wet Nose Boutique Funny Fur Muttropolis I am going to be retailing Buddy Belts and I am placing an order next week. If you are interested, send me a private message. Prices will be the same as the boutiques listed above.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I'm a fan too, I first saw one on Ann's little Marcel, and he looked so cute in it, I guess I loved the leather and the stainless steel together, reminds me of Marlon Brando’s motorcycle jacket! I've had one for Joey for about 5 years and it's gotten better with age, and just got another one for my little foster, who has had trachea problems and this doesn't come close to his throat, so one less worry! My last one came from Muttropolis and they have great service and you can google discounts.

| Way back when, I had ordered a Buddy Belt for Zhoie and I didn't like how wide the leather was and how stiff. Maybe I got a generic one or somehting. How wide are yours and does anyone know if they come more narrow? After all the praise, I'm dying to try one again. Which ones are the softest leathers and where to order the real ones from please

| Sunny loves hers!! Honestly we very rarely take it off. It fits perfectly, room to grow, and has become pliable with time.....she doen't mind it one bit. We even put her bell on it. That way when she goes outside to potty, she has full access to backyard when someone is present, her Buddy belt is on and we hear her jingle jingle in the darker area, that the spot light may not shine on. Buddy belts rock! Easiest thing she wears, that neither she nor I stress out with trying to get it on. Bobbi

| I agree, they soften with use. Size makes a difference too. Max's size 3 was buttery soft from the start. The size 4's required a little time to break in and mold to the body.
