Check out wallmart, they have a harness that you step in and the buckle clasp is at the back between the shoulder blades, this buckle is pretty big so it is easy to use. and then further down the back is a velcro closure. It's almost like a little vest, IMO if you have to you can leave it on for half the day. I have been layed up from knee surgery and my bedroom is upstairs so a neighbor has been coming over to let Lola out, so I have left her harness on during the day and it's been OK. Of course you have to make sure it is not to tight, I do the finger test, if I can put a finger inside and move it around it is not to tight. |
I think I got this exact vest thing you're describing but he kept peeing on it. So I went with a cheapo nylon harness from Petco. It's a totally pain to get on my wiggle worm. I will try that store you mentioned. Thanks so much for the rec!
