But yes, I am not for the use of harnesses in larger dogs, but I am for smaller dogs! I don't like seeing a smaller dog being walked on just a simple collar- one because they could easily get out of the collar on a leash, and two, they can choke easily! :/ Harnesses in larger dogs, in my opinion and experiences, don't help much!
Yea, I completely understand the whole head collar theory cuz I work with horses . I definitely am all for using harnesses on smaller dogs! I own a pomeranian & he wears a harness . I just don't use them on larger dogs. I have two 60 pound beagle/basset hounds, & when we used a harness on them, they pulled us everywhere!
