I have a 22 month old Yorkie and I put him a Buddy Belt after reading so many good things about the product, when he was 6 months old. HIGHLY RECOMMEND it. Re, if your baby pulls on the leash when you are walking, the leash should be no longer than 6 foot, (I have tied a knot in the leash at 3 feet, so my baby walks right next to me, definitely NOT a retractable one as you really have no control of the dog. YOU need to be in control, so when he/she pulls, you can gently pull him back so he is walking at your side. He/she will learn very quickly, just be constistant and the reward is great! Good luck.
