For 1lb 7 oz what harness? What kind of harness to get for my 8 week old Yorkie (who is 1 pound and 7 ounces currenty). I know he will grow but which harness to get? puppia or buddy belt and, which size, step in or over the head? Thank you! GERRY |
I would go for the Puppia harness with the fleece lining. The other one looks a little to harsh for such a small little guy. xxs or xs to start out with and than wait and see how much bigger he gets before purchasing the next size. |
Maybe a ferret harness? I think they sell them at pet supply stores. Good luck! |
Harness for 8 wk old. Good Luck finding one. BJ is 1 lb. 5 ounces and I went to all pet stores and the harnesses and collars are too big. I really don't need one now because she is too small to walk around and it is cold in Ohio. If you feel you want one I gota satin collar that was adjustable from a company that sells items for show dogs for my first beloved Dee Dee. . Sorry i don't remember the name. It was also suggested I go to the section for cats. |

I would NoT use a collar on a pup this tiny as you could cause tracheal damage. When mine were tiny , I used a ferret harness that I bought at Petco & it worked perfect. |
My new little guys is 5 months old 2.6 lbs.....I bought the smallest step in harness I could find...it's still a little big on him... |
Harness or Collar for small Yorkies I agree with most of the comments. I hate collars for small dogs. They choke them when they pull. Secondly I don't walk my Yorkie when she is this small, the only reason I was looking was for the car seat I have. You latch the small belt to the catch on the harness so they can't jump out of the car seat. I am in no hurry, too cold to take her in and out now. :aimeeyork |
I would recommend a ferret harness. I would wait until he's his adult weight to invest a ton of money into a better harness. There's no point in spending too much money if he's just going to grow out of it :) |
Sometimes cat harnesses are made really small so you could try that as well. They sell them at the pet stores. |
Your puppy is very very young and will grow quite a bit. I hope you aren't planning on walking him outdoors yet? |
