Harness

I love sharing positive feedback from new products with you guys.  Sunday I ordered 2 Large Dog Harnesses from Hunter K9 Gear.   The harness is nylon with plastic buckles.  It has a padded chest strap and, of course, it's pink.  And, they got delivered today.

After much trial and error with the fittings, I finally got both dogs in the harnesses.  They actually did pretty good so I decided to take them for a walk before it started to storm.

Both dogs did great, and I felt like I had so much more control.  Daisy didn't pull at all, and I only had to tug lightly for her to respond.  I wish we had done this a year ago.  Penny didn't like it as much.  The slightest tug had her sitting down and pouting.  I'm hoping she'll adjust quickly.

Daisy is more interested in modeling

She loves getting new "clothes"

The harnesses also game with seatbelt attachments so they can be strapped down in the jeep.  Now Daisy won't have to fight for space, and I can feel comfortable with them in the car.  The only concern I have is with the plastic buckles.  If we get in an accident I'm not sure they will hold, but hopefully we will never test that.

  2. We finally got to try them out in the jeep, and they worked sooo well. Becuase it has a seat belt buckle that fits in the seatbelt clasp, we could unbuckle them and use it as a leash.
    I'm sure Shania wouldn't mind riding up front. That's Daisy's spot in Dan's car and she always tries to steal my seat.
