Hi again!!
What is the best harness to take Mimi for a walk with? She is 2.4 pounds and we want her to be comfortable in her harness. Looking forward to hearing what you all have tried and what is the best harness to use. Thank so much!

Boy, she's really tiny!! I'd say go to Petco or Petsmart and look for a ferret harness. (the matching leashes come with them) They are made of a mesh material, so it will keep her from overheating. That's what I used when my Razael was tiny.

That is what we had to use on Mia. I had also gotten something small from Doggie Vogue but a ferret harness is a safe and quick, reasonable pic

I think the BEST idea is to get one from chattiesmom on here

...she makes them custom to fit your dog, and they're lightweight, silk, and beautiful!! I have a really cute leather one for Bella, but I mostly use her silk one because it takes up so little room in my pocket or purse and is so lightweight I don't even know I'm carrying it. And if you have a small dog, you know....lightweight makes a difference! Here's the link to her thread so you can see how much she charges and can click on her link to see her selection of colors: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...elections.html
