Another harness question from Newbie! I have a question about a harness. The breeder I am getting my puppy suggested that I purchase a harness and not a collar. I have been to a million websites and the sizing is all different. It keeps asking how big the puppy is around the middle. I don't know cause I don't have her yet! Also I was wondering how thick or thin it should be. I don't want it to weigh her down. She is one of the bigger pups and her mom weighs a little over 7lbs and her dad weighs 5lbs. Do these harnesses adjust much or am I going to have to buy one for puppyhood and when she grows up? It is hard to guess on these things. If anyone has any suggest where I can find a good harness that would be great. THis is the link to one of the harness I am looking at. It is the first harness pictured http://www.cooldogtoys.com/dogleaderharne.php We have a very long drive home and I want to have something on her so we can stop and take her potty safely. Thanks for your help... I just don't want to have to deal with shipping anything back : ) |
The one you pictured is way too thick for a yorkie. Get one like this http://www.petco.com/Shop/Product.as...familyID=7813& Its also cheaper than the one you had. My yorkie is 5pounds and she has one like this. I got her the small it adjusts a lot so if she were bigger she would have no problem. The thing with a puppy is that no matter what harness you use its going to be too big anyway until they grow more. So just get the smallest one you can. Or if you can find one of the harness dresses. Get one in an x-small it has the harness built in the clothing. |
I got Tiger's at Walmart for only a little over $3.00. I bought a few at Petco/Petsmart and were all returned. It is adjustable . . .I bought it when Tiger was 2 lbs and now he is 4 lbs and still plenty of room to spare. I plan to get him a really nice fancy one when he is fully grown, but for now, it works wonderfully and very inexpensive. |
i would suggest a step i harness. they are the easiest to get on and off.. |
I had to buy one when they were a puppy and one when they were adults. I bought the puppy one on ebay, Barkatme was the seller. I bought my adult ones at Petsmart, they are step in harnesses. |
