thanks for the suggestion. I checked out the website and ordered one. I can't wait for it to come... so excited! Hopefully I'll post pics when it arrives.

I have a few, They fit really well. My baby is 6 lbs. I have never used anything else. The groomer in town carries a whole line of Puppia products.

I have one for my boston terrier and love it, I get lots of complliments on it to

My Yorkies have been using them for two years now. They are comfortable and I like the way they fit. What I wanted them for was safety. I use them when I hook them into their car seats and they wear them when we walk or hike. I feel that the would hold in a crash or something and on hikes if they get into trouble I can yank them back or reel them in without injury. Sampson almost got blown off a bridge across a whitewater river once when a sudden gust came up. So I want something strong and supportive.

I looove puppias, it's what we use daily! I was always told they run small, but i haven't compared it to any other similar styles to comment on that really.

I got my 7.5 lb girl a S, my 11 lb boy, a M and my 15 lb lhasa a M also. McKenzie's neck is too thin but she would be an XS at 4.5 lbs.

They also have step in styles for those w/a small neck. I've ordered one for Kenzie but it isn't in yet

Duke has the camo one as well and I too love it on it, very secure and comfy for him

I have a puppia one for Cooper in Camo. I really love it. Cooper is 9 pounds His neck is 8 inches his chest is 16. I don't really know what size I have for him I think it was a medium but I had to just sew around the neck and make it just a little smaller for his neck so it doesn't gap because he was getting his paws out of the holes. Now he doesn't. It is wonderful.

I was having trouble with him chewing on his other harness with it on him and he would get it stuck on his mouth. I am afraid that he would break his jaw.
These are great,

Scooter has one. We started super small and as he has grown up, we have changed sizes. I cut the tags off so I have no idea what size the one he currently uses is, though I think it is a small. When one was too small but the next size up was too big, I used a safety pin on the back to secure it. No need for that anymore but it worked great when I needed it to. I love them....and so does Scooter.

cvasquez · 08-17-2008, 07:23 PM

How would you compare the fit between the regular harness and the vest harness? I Was considering ordering the vest for Paisley.
Thanks!

luvmyYorkieJack · 08-17-2008, 07:28 PM

We just bought Jack a mesh harness. It's not puppias. It's by four paws..... bought it at our local pet store..... go figure Pet Co doesn't sell them. Thank god we had this store too. I really like it. We had just a generic walmart brand harness. Don't get me wrong it was safer for my 3 pound boy than just a collar but it still seemed to be too much. I mean it was just straps and if he ran and pulled, I think it still would have hurt. Well we bought the mesh harness today and he ran and pulled (must have been excited and had a burst of energy) and he didn't seem to be uncomfortable. Or coughing like he would have with the collar. Would really recommed a mesh harness (no matter the brand)!!!!

The regular harness goes through the head and locks at the shoulder/chest. Whereas the vest goes through and locks at the chest. I'm my opinion it is harder for them to wriggle their way out of a vest harness. The vest harness also runs small so you have to measure exactly because there isn't much room for adjustments. Whereas the regular harness can be adjusted at the shoulder/chest.
