I'm so glad you were there!!!!
I don't have anything on Princess unless we are going out.
I'll keep clipers in my car now, just in case!

There is also something called the Easy Walk Harness by Premier. It helps with pulling but also has the leash attachment on the d ring that is located on the front of the chest. A great harness for those breeds concerned with trachea problems! You can read more about them at www.retail4wholesale.com.

I have read alot of scary things when it comes to collars and such. When I got our first Yorkie we use to use those nylon type harnesses and though nothing ever happened like that she just would never leave them alone and would always chew them badly. I was replacing them all the time. Yeesh!! Then I started making my own and they have never bothered with these. I like the clothing type harnesses because they serve two functions at once

They are safe and look cute too.. But thats just me.. I hope you find just the perfect thing for your little Mojo..

Joy has made me some of these and they are wonderful! You should try them.

This is also great for training leash walking because the dog can't pull as easily as they can in a regular harness. They are really great. Loki has the "petite" size and it's as adjusted as large as it will go. He is barely 8 pounds (he's long and tall and skinny). We love it!

I have one of these and the smallest one they make-I paid $30.00 for it and it's too big for Pippa adjusted as far small as it can get!! I'm hoping she grows into it a little more, because boy does she need it most days. She is so excited to get outside on a walk that she looks like a little alaskan snow dog with that harness-just pulling with all her might!
The only condolence I have is that Scout will definetely grow into it, but he's a great walker-not a puller at all....oh, well...

Hi. I was wondering if any of you have tried the Buddy Belt harness. I've checked out their website www.buddy-belts.com (sorry, don't know how to post the actual link) and they seem really good. They have a good selection of sizes for our little ones and some really nice colours too.
