Buddy Belt For Sale - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Britster · 08-22-2012, 07:09 PM

I really love the Buddy Belt, I really do. But it's not really the perfect harness for Jackson, especially in the summer, because he's constantly running and getting messy, wet and dirty so I never want to use it. We need something a little more able to be washed and get dirty. I almost feel bad listing it... because we do love it. It hasn't been worn or used in months. It's in great condition, only been walked in, lightly used, but no scuffs or marks etc. I figure I'd see if there was an interest and if not, well it will stay with us!

It's a black leather size 5.

Bought for $72 + shipping.

Will sell for $50 shipped.

let him wear it. I know it was expensive, but it only gets better with wear, dirt, scratches! They love it when it gets soft and worn in. I've even seen some people leave them on their furrbutts as if it were a collar (once it's worn in) and its GREAT on the fur, Well the few people I know who have BB have had NO problems with knots because of the harness, I think that's a BONUS! Keep it!

Wow - what a great deal! Someone should really get this ~ it's the right size but wrong color for my 'Pebbles ~ pretty in pink' other wise I'd jump on this

Good luck with the sale!!

I'm measuring Teddy Bear to see if it will fit him.

Doodlebug · 09-30-2012, 08:18 PM

He is about 18 - 18 1/2" around his chest, and 16 lbs. Do you think it would fit him?

It looks like (according to the size chart) that it might be a little tight? Here is a size 5:

Size 5 Chest 16-18" Weight 12-18 lbs.

Jackson is 18 1/2" girth and 16lbs and it fits him on the first, second and middle hole (depending if he's wearing a shirt etc.)

If you want it, it's yours!

It looks like our boys are about the same size. Do you think Teddy Bear would have enough room to wear a sweater or a fleece coat under the harness? If you think it will be a good fit would you send me a pm and let me know how you want payment? Thanks.

Doodlebug - the 18" girth is at the top measurement for the size 5, see the Buddy Belt size chart. I don't think you could put the size 5 over a sweater or coat.

Maximo could help you get the correct size for your Teddy Bear!!

Buddy Belts Measure & Fit

I find the sizing to be a tad off... I bought both the 6 and the 5 for Jackson, and while they both fit (the 6 only fit him on the tightest hole and left a long flap)... the 6 was just TOO big (and wider too) so we returned it for the 5. I can fit it over a jacket (maybe not a really thick one, but yes sweater/jacket/etc, the Buddy Belt fits over).

I'll pM you. If it doesn't fit for some reason, you can send it back!

Britster · 10-10-2012, 01:16 PM

Here is a photo of Jackson in a sweater with it on the 2nd to last hole

Technically, Jackson's girth is nearly 19" (I think it's like 18.7" when measured out, I just checked my phone where I saved his measurements). so there's no way it's only to 18" at the top girth size, it wouldn't fit him on 3 different holes.

lucyaboo · 10-10-2012, 01:42 PM

Britster - your Jackson is adorable. I know sizing can vary. Sorry, I was just going off the website chart.

Maybe my Aussie could wear the Carrot BB in a 3.5 size?? That is at the top of that size range for him...Hummm

I really wanted the Orange color for him

lol ~ I got him a different one in the size 4 instead...

Thanks for the photos and measurements. I have ordered things before and went by the shown measurements and I know that the sizes can vary some. I am going to go ahead and get it. Going to PM you back and send payment. Thanks!
