that said, i have a confession to make- i've bought sirius a total of four harnesses. not because of function, but because they never fit him right! FE had suggested i get a cat one, since sirius is about the size of a hamster so i did, and it fit pretty well...considering i have been putting them on WRONG for the past 2 months!!!!!!! thank god for tinkerbellscloset.com and Shana, because they have a picture of a dog wearing a harness and suddenly it dawned on me ive been putting it on wrong this whole time. [ty shana!!!!] i was putting in on like a saddle, not around his neck because the whole point was so that nothing would touch his neck! i feel so dumb, but whatever, learn something new everyday. :]

so i figure i cant be the only one to make a yorkie faux pas...would anyone like to make any confessions of supidity? or am i alone on this?

I absolutely LOVE this thread of yours...LOL....its soooo human! It's also a nice reminder that we can love and have pets and not be the "Perfect" mom all the time.....
