I don't use collars or a harness on my babies when we are home or they are home alone, for the simple fact that they can get caught so easily on something. My babies are never out without me and they wear a harness when we are outside. When I first adopted Jada I did put a collar with her tags and a bell so I would be able to hear her walking around. I had never had such a tiny dog before and was scared to death of stepping on her. I would always take the collar off before going to work. I got busy one morning and left without taking it off. I was physically sick when it dawned on me of what I did. I could imagine her getting her tags stuck in the walls of her x-pen, luckily my in-laws live right next door. My father-in-law went over and took her collar off for me. I have never put it on her since. Why take that risk when you don't have too. |
