    What do you use to walk your dog?

    Molli uses a harness and Sam uses his collar.

    I walk Finn with a collar. A harnessed Finn would be impossible to walk, it would just allow him to pull harder, more comfortably! David has harnesses for Freckles and Dudley.

    My legs! I voted for collar harness and no leash, it varies with situation. I only use the harness when its at hand, not when I have to search for it.

    Frisk uses a harness, because his neck is so big that a collar slides right off^^.
    Ethan uses one of those harnesses that help cut back on pulling.
    Skylar just uses a collar.

    I use harnesses on both of them. Ripley backed out of his collar once on a walk and scared me to death. Bella has a tendency to tug at the beginning of our walks because she is so excited, and I couldn't stand to hear her choke herself.

    Edit: I used to use a Halti on Bella but she would sometimes try to rub it off if given the chance. She seems to prefer the harness.

    On Sadie, I usually use her collar. Sometimes I use her harness, though.
    LOL, Pam! Sadie does the same thing with her gentle leader!

    So does Molli. She chokes herself so much with collars that she hacks for like 15 minutes after her walk.

    I use Georgia's collar because she doesn't pull.
    I put a halti, collar, and prong collar on Buddy, since the halti can attach to two things, when he pulls, it pulls on the halti, the prong, and his collar.
    Alaska uses a prong most of the time, but sometimes a choker or just his collar.
