| Harness rubbing My boy has been using the same harness for well over a year now. Just recently since its been warm enough that he doesnt have to wear a coat or a shirt ive noticed that his harness has been rubbing this chest raw. It's a step in harness that definitely is not too tight or too loose. This has never happened before with the harness, but i feel like i should get him a new one. I went last night and got him a new harness at a store in my mall called Moochie and Co that had a wide, padded chest area, but the piece that slips over the head seems that if he were to pull it would apply pressure to his throat area. So that one is not going to work out. Can any recommend a good harness? I usually keep his hair pretty short (although he is in need of a haircut soon). He also pulls a lot on walks from chasing birds or squirrels or whatever. Thanks!

| Hm, I've heard of Puppia harnesses but have yet to use them. I've heard good things about them though. K9 InStyle Classic, Puppia Harness, Puppia, Free Shipping I just bought Jackson a Premier Gentle Leader EZ Walk Harness and have yet to try it out (I just got it today in the mail) but it looks pretty simple. I've heard good reviews about it.

| YT-er "ChattiesMom" has THE best silk harnesses. They are so lightweight that Missy can't even tell she has hers on. Here's some pics...

| Have any of your babies had an issue like mine? I guess im just apprehensive about buying something custom because its non returnable. I guess it's because the silk harnesses look just like the one i have now that's causing the irritation. I understand their made of different materials, but i would just think that if the friction there it's going to rub him no matter the material.
