Buddy Belts v ChokeFree harnesses - Help please!

[Harrysmum]

Good morning! Thank you all so much for your opinions and guidance. As you all know, it's very difficult from thousands of miles away to make an informed choice - especially when something so important really needs to be tried on? And on both the Buddy Belt and ChokeFree websites - well, they all look so gorgeous (and so much choice!!). I like the idea of the velcro - but then again I like the thought of the 'adjustability' of the buckle!! Maybe one of each?!!! Sally + Harry x

This is Sugar's ChokeFree harness.

I have the exact same one for Roxie. I also have a metallic blue one.

I love the choke-free. It is very easy to get on, and it can't get any simpler than the velcro fastener. I also feel secure in that there's no way for the harness to come undone while the leash is connected to it.

It's so cute when Roxie picks up one little foot at a time to put the harness on.

Sounds like the perfect solution. My boys wear Buddy Belts and love them. We have not tried the Choke Free yet. You are in a tough spot not being able to try them on, and having to worry about expensive shipping, which makes returns and exchanges unlikely.

I prefer the buddy belt, I just have a personal issue with velcro, lol.

My male Yorkie chewed through his standard harness from the front - any ideas what kind or brand to use that he can't get to? He's currently wearing a collar. Thanks.

I have the same problem with my Connor! There hasn't been a woven harness, yet, that he cannot destroy in a matter of minutes. If I'm just walking him, he is fine with it, but put him in the back seat of the truck, or don't take the harness off right away after a walk, he'll have the thing in his mouth and it will be chewed thru in nothing flat! I think chain-mail may be a solution, lol!
