I guess the idea is that they are actually better than buckle collars that dogs pull on until they choke. With these, the dogs pull less. I looked around and there were several dogs in the class using them.

Still, it seems severe to me for a Yorkie.

I'd appreciate any advice.
As a spoke person for Eddie, I would say no to the collar. I have no personal experience with them nor do I judge those who do. I think based soley on the issues that Yorkies have with collars in general, would be a good reason to not do a collar that could further complicate what is already a delicate "problem" area. Just MHO.

Please give Eddie hugs and kisses for me!!
