Looking for a good safety harness

[poosdarling]

I bought a safety harness from G.W Little

Small Dog Car Harness - GW Little

But they did their measurements incorrectly and unfortunately it is the smallest size available.

I was wondering if there are any YT'ers able to make a harness where the D-ring is located on the lower back. Milo likes to wiggle around alot and I don't want him twisting the seatbelt from the seat.


Thanks!

I had the same problem with the harness from GW Little. We bought it for Lola and had her name printed on it only to realize that she is able to slip right out of it!! I looked for a long time for a harness for her when she walks so that it doesn't pull at her neck and for when she is the car seat with her brother Tino so she is completely safe. I ended up taking a chance on the Puppia step-in harness and it is GREAT! We ordered her the XS and it only comes in maybe one or two styles...but I would be happy to give you the link from the ebay store we got ours.

That's ridiculous! I hope GW Little gave you back your money. Milo walked RIGHT out of his harness. And when I laid it flat to measure, it measured 6'' at the smallest point (that's a 12inch girth!!!). They advertised 8-14inch!

I would love the link to those harnesses. Thanks!

Someone on here posted about harness and was selling the puppia ones on special. I think this might be the link.

Those are cute, but the smallest the step-ins style comes in is small...Lola needed an x-small.

Here is the link again for the site I got them from in case you need an XS....

I bought the girls the pink and the red ones from GW Little and they fit perfectly BUT, since they ride too far up on the neck, they often cough too much as it puts a strain on their neck. Now I just use their step in harness for travel.

I just bought a puppia soft harness ... I hope it fits!


THANKS!

Just wanted to add ....

I received my puppia harness today and it was too big!

I never really thought Milo was THAT small. I mean the puppia did fit ALOT better than the one I ordered from G.W Little. But it just won't do as a safety harness.

I vote for Cindy's(ChattiesMom) for harnesses! Both of my babies have them and they work super!

Wow!!! What a tiny girl you have! Lola is only 3 pounds and her xs step-in harness fits like a glove. So sorry to hear that.

[poosdarling]

I know .... I couldn't believe it! Because Milo doesn't look small, he's just very skinny w/a big head. He had trouble getting into the head part but the rest was just hanging.

[luv_my_yorkies]

Hmm... I think maybe you bought a different one than I did. The one I have has no part to slip the head through. It snaps and velcros shut on the back with a buckle. I saw the ones with the part to put the head through and actually tried those on in a pet shop and they were too big for Lola too, that is why I went with the step in kind instead and it fit much better. and is much more secure. Here is what I have:
