Here is Teddy on the right with the Size 3.5: Attachment 391785
When you put the harness on Henri, is the buckle to his left paw? The harness is supposed to fit directly against the body without cinching the skin.
If you could video tape what Henri is doing, maybe I can help you figure out what is wrong.
Thank you,

First, thank you for getting back to me so quickly!
Yep, I'm putting it buckle to the left paw.
Unfortunately the minute I brought the camera out he wouldn't do it. I tried for at least an hour to get him to do his sneaky little trick. He is not a huge fan of the camera unless it's his idea.
I tried the middle hole again, held onto the back of harness and tugged a little to make sure it was on right. While I was still checking and holding on, he stood up on his hind legs without prompting and backed out. My sister saw it and said try the next hole, now this is a little embarrassing as it seems like I was kinda putting it on wrong after all, I buckled it and she (my sister) then gave the strap a good tug downward. Just as we finished the cat walked by and it all turned into chaos. The most awesome thing happened though! We had already attached the leash and when he saw the cat he ran after her, he was stopped by the leash so he tried to do his trick to get out of the harness and couldn't. He tried about three more times to get out but couldn't. Now he is mad at me.
Thanks Kristin for the help and great customer service!
I'm sorry I hadn't realized my mistake before posting this thread
