 Softest Harness
When Higgins was tiny, a fellow camper who breeds chihuahuas bought him two wonderful soft harnesses that are padded and use velcro to fasten them. He LOVED them. And the beauty of them was that you could just pick him right up and out of trouble with the leash since he was softly held in the harness. His first one was a very natty navy mesh and the next size she sent is black quilted fabric with red lipstick prints all over it -- really cute! When I get everything unpacked from my camper, I'll find the name of her website and post it.
Higgins now uses a regular small cat harness and a Flexi-lead that rolls in and out. He walked beautifully on his leash right from the get go, but I think that was because he had Pogo as his role model. Pogo goes right along and Higgins went right along just behind him. This sometimes let to poor Higgins either getting under Pogo's lifted leg, or getting a faceful of dirt when Pogo finished up his job with a healthy back leg digging routine. Now, when they run free out in the yard, it is so much fun to watch Higgins follow Pogo's every move. Reminds me of the Kibbles & Bits ad. |
