A lot of people on here say they only use a harness for walking, outings, etc....why is that? fashion or are they thought to be uncomfortable? And as far as break-away collars I understand they would be great if a dog got caught up on something, but isn't that an easy way to lose the I.D. on the pup, too?

Sooo many questions! The more I learn, the more I need to know!
HAHA! I thought about them losing their tags too. I've been using breakaways on Kaji for about.... 6 months now. In that time, Kaji has lost his collar twice in that time. He wears it 24/7, so it stays on really well. The only time he's without a collar is when he's getting a bath.
