| Harness or collar? I was just wondering what is best to get for my new puppy. Titan will be coming home with me in a week or two. I have heard good for both and a little negative. Things like collars are no good cause it can choke them and it wears away their hair. Well I don't plan on leaving a collar on him all day long, just when I have to take him out. Also I will be litter box training him and if you have any good info on that... Thanks. |

| I use his collar when he is in his carrier and out and about and his harness too for walking. Hope this helps.

Wow, not very many people know Spokane . . yes, it has really grown and populations just keeps growing. They keep widening our freeways as we get an influx of CA migrating in the area . . . | |

| I like the harness the best as I was told that a colar could hurt their trechs. But I am no expert on it. Only what I like best. |

| I asked my hubby, He is the real German. He doesn't know or isn't sure. I always try the meats and things Oma makes for us. Very interesting stuff. The reason I know of Spokane is cause my parents live over near Bremerton and I also have family that live in Okanogan and Tri-cities. I had an arguement once with a teacher who misspoke Spokane, called it Spo-cane. |

| How Do people feel about the figure 8 Harness vs the traditional Harness? Are these any better? Tiger's Mom~I still can't think of any Raw meat sandwich, Are you sure it was Raw and not smoked? |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | I use soft suede harness with matching leash. I also use Collar for for tags for identification. If you're looking for something special, maybe those of us here on the board can find it for you. It's been a long time since I have had a penpal. |
