Gracie loves going out so she is always happy when I get the harness out. Sometimes dogs are not thrilled with the idea of a harness at first but when they realize it is connected with something they enjoy the bad attitude changes quickly. Once you find the harness that works best for both of you it will be a much easier procedure to go through.
Gracie loves her harness and does not play with it but when she was younger I left it on her for a little while after we came in from outside. She was playing with a cat and must have decided the harness was putting her at a disadvantage so she slid backwards on her stomach until she slipped the harness up over her head. Thankfully I saw what she was doing but I hate to imagine what could have happened if I had not been there. I guess experience is how we learn. |
