He has 2 Puppia's now, which I love but I wanted something else besides a vest-type as well, since sometimes those seem like they could be hot in this hot weather sometimes. He's outdoors a lot and he would never swim with this harness on in the inground pool, but he does go into beach water with the harness, and baby pools at the dog park, etc. Do you think they hold up well outdoors? Who has the Buddy Belt and this and can compare? It seems like the belt buckle on the Buddy Belt would annoy me since I'm constantly taking on/off Jackson's harness throughout the day but maybe it wouldn't.

Sorry for all the questions. Just looking for a "in depth" review on these.
I got Max's in 11/09 and it hardly looks worn. Like Jen said, it gets broken in and after 2 or 3 wears its not as stiff and fits your dog perfectly. Max is bigger too, he weighs about 13lbs. We always get compliments on it too. I think its well worth the money. It will last you a long time. I heard that the metallic ones tend to show "wear" easier and crack. We have the ostrich one in the blue.
