Hi Everyone: what would you do if your baby ran away every time you went to put the harness on. I had him in puppy class and they taught us to get them to come and to reach down with the other hand so they got used to the hand coming to them. When he is just in the house doing nothing, I can get him to do that easily.
When it is time to go for a walk, totally different story. I have been walking him 2 or 3 times a day since I got him and he loves his walks. I have tried every kind of harness out there.
He runs away if he even thinks I am going to put anything on him. Once I do get it on him, he immediately runs to the front door to go for his walk like all of it meant nothing.
I try not to get frustrated as I know that only makes it worse, but I am getting tired of him running away and it taking 20 minutes to get his harness on before I can take him for a walk.
Putting the harness physically doesn't seem to be an issue by the way. It is just getting ahold of him to do it.
