We use step-in harnesses for both of our boys but I don't leave them on all the time, they're just for trips outside the house. When we take them off we leave the leash attached to one loop so everything is there when we need it...when we go somewhere we have them step-in, snap the back, hook the leash to both safety loops and off we go. They're great...we got ours at Petsmart.

I love the step in harness. I just bought Cali her third. The first was ferret size when she was 1 lb she is now in a 14 at 4 lbs then I went the other day and bought a matching one for my 12 lb pom and got her a size medium. They are so much easier than the other style harnesses I used for my pom.

Gooby makes a harness of suede that has a matching leash for about 24.99. I have one for Bailey and Dayzee both/each and they size all the way down for a smaller dog.

I use a step in harness. I love it. To me, it is better than just the regular harness becuase the regular harnesses go around the neck still, but with the step in it is not near their neck. It's great! I also got mine at petsmart for about 10$.

I use them for my two because of trachea possibilities but neither I nor do they like them. Getting my two to just step in isn't so easy. So, exactly where can I get a light weight one and is it adjustable? Lacey used a hamster leash when she was young for anyone who might need want to try it.
