Affordable step-in Buddy Belt Harness? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Wylie's Mom · 02-19-2007, 07:34 AM

Hi All,

I'm thinking about buying a Buddy Belt Harness (I think size 4) and all of the sites I've seen them on are charging $52-70 for that size.

Anyone know a place that offers them more reasonably? AND, are they worth it?

I did purchase a step-in silk harness from a YT member, however, the threads are already coming undone and it is not wearing well overall.

Many thanks!
Ann

Have you tried Des' step in harness or harness vest? I have ordered several and they are very sturdy, and certainly more reasonable. http://go.fetch.home.comcast.net/

I would be interested to know this, too.

The link for the step in harness on Des' site is disabled.

Thank you!

I am placing an order w/ go.fetch - they look much sturdier than what I previously purchased.

Nonetheless, if anyone does have any info. on less expensive Buddy Belt harnesses - I'd still be interested to know about them.

Many thanks,
Ann

Here is one that starts at $23.90 but you have to add $20 for a Size 4: http://yhst-91919123581610.stores.yahoo.net/1846.html

Step in harness link at go fetch was disabled for me too.

I just checked the link. Des has two links for the step-in-harness, one works, one does not. If you have problems, PM Des. Her YT handle is Tiger's Mom

Where is the second link? I only have one and it is disabled. Some time back someone mentioned they got a link to work for the Dri-fit harnesses and mine is disabled there too. Where are these second links located on her site? Thanks in advance.

My yorkies use Buddy Belts and they're definitely worth it. The leather is very nice and seems really durable compared to other harnesses I've tried. They adjust easily which is good when they're wearing clothes. Also, they work very well with their Lookout car seat. I got my Buddy Belts from http://www.metropawlispetboutique.com/buddy_belt.html. They have the lowest price I've found. I got mine for $23.90 (size 2) and $33.90 (size 3).
