| Collars Are they ok for a yorkie to wear around the house or outside when not leashed? I know they are bad when on a leash for them due to their collapsing trachea that can happen. I let mine wear a collar when he is outside without a leash, but always use a harness when we go on a walk in town. I just figure that as long as it isn't pulling against his throat then no harm is being done, am I wrong? Thanks for the help guys |

| I go back and forth. I like the idea of the collar because he'll have his tags if he gets out. But then again, I've heard so many horror stories that I've taken to not putting anything on him when he's in the house. I use a step in harness when we go out or his hoodies have D rings. I found a thing at Petsmart for his tags that has a buckle type clasp so i can just attach them with ease to whatever I'm using when we go out.
