Re: Keeping harnesses on all day
I have always used a harness on my dog like the one in Meg's picture. Just this Sunday gone I was in the park and a small yappy dog slipped it's collar to have a go at my dog. I had a word with the owner and advised her to get a harness instead of the pretty pink collar and lead. Imagine if that had happened on the main road with traffic.Re: Keeping harnesses on all day

My littlies have harnesses because they have delicate necks, recommended initially by a vet after we took on a rescue with a crushed trachea, I've never found they pull more than on a collar.Re: Keeping harnesses on all day

Re: Keeping harnesses on all day
I have two leads for my dog, a leather lightweight one for when I take her out, because I let her off once on the fields. I also have an extending lead, for when someone else takes her because they cant let her off - she just runs straight home (across a busy road). I have a flat extending lead not one of the thin stringy type as I know soneone who used one of those and had her finger almost amputated when her dog lurched. I also have two harnesses, but they are only used when my dog is in the car. Only one at a time of course.Re: Keeping harnesses on all day

Whoever walks my dog on the extending lead keeps it locked until they reach the fields than she is able to run on it extended. She is only a small dog and walks beautifully to heel once on either lead.
