I'd assume no irritation of the skin or people wouldn't do it but I meant hair irritation...not to offend anyone I know some people have a hard time with harnesses and also want ID tags on their dogs all the time...but I have wondered about hair "irritation" also-Yorkie's don't have coarse fur they have hair...

I noticed a few people pointed out what I have always thought too, I mean great ppl r u using break away collars...but for tags what about when they break away if they out
I dont think I understand what do you mean by irritation of the hair? I keep Callie in a puppy cut because she very much loves to be outside and would get things many things stuck in her hair if she wasnt kept short. I have had Callie sense she was a puppy and will be 4 in may collared at all times besides baths and after I bathe her and either blow her dry or let her air dry you could never tell she had a collar on her hole life. Of course I leave Callies collar decently lose and the width is a thin as I could find.
