I may be purchasing a new harness for Gracie this summer. I'm not sure at this point what I'll get. The Buddy belt is one option but I kind of like the Choke Free shoulder harness or I may go for a silk step in harness. She does have a long coat and I think the silk step in harness would be easiest on her fur.

I had wanted to get one through a member here but I guess she isn't well enough yet to be making them. I like the Puppia but in the warm weather I think the silk or one of the others would be more comfortable for when we are out for long periods of time. I would not have considered a silk harness when she was a puppy.
