only for walkies in our house...we'll also put it on anytime we go in the car or to a vets or event. pretty much anytime we go out the Front door, it's harness, if it's just to potty out the back door we don't use it...we don't have a fenced in yard for now, so we just pick her up and place her inside a 4x5 ft. chicken wire fence pen and she pees and we pick her back up and take her inside.
when she was very little, we'd harness and play in the yard off leash, but since she's bigger we don't do that anymore for fear she'll run off too far.
we're getting a big yard with privacy fence so we'll get to play outside again in a couple weeks but i'll use harness most likely anytime she's out more than to just pee and i think i'll still use the chicken wire pen for pottying because it's safe and it keep the big yard cleaner. plus she knows what to do in it. |
