Is there one that can't be chewed through? We are on harness #3. This one is a step in and he still manages to get it in his mouth and chew on it.

Have you tried leather, or fake leather? I think the no choke collar (is really a harness) and the buddy belts come in this material.

I like the chattiesmom harnesses the best... they are so soft and dont bother the furkids at all when they are on.

I have a buddy belt also and while the design is really nice and it is certainly a safe, well made harness, the leather does tend to rub under the arms which I dont like.

If rubbing is a problem, I just saw Panama69's suggestion on another thread - buy the sherpa lining to go in the BB. Also, I gave the suggestion of loosening/softening the leather. To do so, put some isopropyl rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball and rub into the leather. Do this a couple of times. After that, rub vaseline into the leather. Should be softer after this and probably won't rub so much.

SOO cute!! I'm ordering one of those right now actually! Thanks!

I use Chattiesmom Harnesses, Choke Free and the Buddy Belts!!

I really LOVE the Buddy Belts when she has shorter hair and Cindy's harnesses when she has a longer coat. I've never had a problem matting with the BB in her long coat but the harnesses seem to get lost in all that hair so I like Cindy's best for that reason!!

The Choke Free I honestly don't use that much because of the shape of the leg holes. I find them a bit difficult to get her legs into. Thats why I decided to get the BB becuase it has round leg holes and not square..

We use harness from Chattiesmom here too. We absolutely love them. Thanks for the reminder, I to would like to order new colors.

lolagrl · 06-23-2010, 07:46 AM

We haven't tried Chattiesmoms' harnesses yet but when I first got my little one we used Buddy Belts but then found under her front arms they were rubbed raw when the weather got nice...bad mommy! We recently discovered Susan Lanci's Pure and Simple Step In Harness and we love it!!! It is made out of the softest, lightest ultrasuede and she now has adaptors that you can clip on cut out ultrasuede decals (ie. butterflies, bows, etc...) GW Little.com has a good selection that you can look at if interested but know they work wonders for us plus they wash extremely well! Good luck in the hunt!

I'm another Susan Lanci Fan. However they are a bit pricy. Never tried harnesses from Chattiesmom....anybody have pictures?

lolagrl · 06-24-2010, 09:02 AM

I agree Susan Lanci is a bit pricey but they don't rub Lola raw and to be honest for me it works. I would be interested in Chattiesmoms' harnesses but hard to understand if they are all silk and very flimsy or if they are a more stiff silk. Lola doesn't have much hair under her arms so almost anything rubs it raw.

Cooper2010 · 06-25-2010, 05:04 PM

I ordered two from Golly Gear.

Luxury Harness & Leash Set by Gooby for Small Dogs from Golly Gear and EasyGo and EasyGo Sailor Harness & Leash Set for Small Dogs by Dogo from Golly Gear

They came in today and so far I like the luxery harness. It's a suede like material. Chattiesmom harnesses look so nice! I think he'd chew through that in an hour though.

Are they more sturdy than they appear in the pictures? I'd love to order things from YT vendors.

If you're not wanting leather, I agree with the others - Chattiesmom!

I love the Buddy Belts!!
