Leash Training My 4 month old puppy will start puppy obedience class this evening. It's asked that we bring a 6' leash to the training. Are 6' leashes ok for yorkie puppies? My Kharlie is 3.6 lbs. BTW- I sent an email to the director of the program, just waiting on a response. In the meantime, I figured I post the question here to see if I could get a quick answer. Thanks. |
I think the 6 foot leash would be fine but make sure your puppy wears a harness and not a collar. You do not want him pulling too hard and hurting his trachea... |
okay great, thanks. I'm up to speed with the harness/collar situation. She only wears a collar for fashion. :) |
Where can you find a harness? I brought atleast 6 harness for Bella and they were all x-small and she still doesnt fit them and she weighs 4lbs |
Try a cat or ferret harness if the dog harnesses aren't big enough. I took my Mickey to class and we needed a 6ft lead too and it really wasn't as long as I thought it would be. |

are you looking for smaller than x - small ? if so i found these really cute harnesses that come in tea cup & xxs Angel Wing Ultrasuede Dog Harness |
For training, I really like the easy walk harness. It protects their trachea but still clips in the front. The harnesses that clip in the back encourage pulling - think sled dog.

It is important that they are fitted correctly. The front goes across their chest - not around their neck. Easy Walk Harness Sizing Instructions - Premier Pet |
