Use the collar for tags only. Make sure you can put your index and middle finger under it, (providing you have a normal size hand and not a big mans hand). Make sure he can't get his bottom jaw under it though.
Use a step in harness. (it doesn't come near the throat). Yorkies are known to have soft trachea's. I never even used a collar on Zada, but she now has a collapsed trachea and can never go for walks, be around people and has to stay home all the time. When anyone comes over we have to keep her up stairs. It's a sad way for a social animal to live, so please don't use a collar to walk your baby. |
