The harness worked wonders. No more pulling on her neck and she really liked it. We saw a few caves and I could of pulled her up if she went over. Ha Ha!

From what I have seen of the no pull harness it works in much the same way the Puppia does. You have control over the dog and the dog is not pulling you. My main concern with Gracie was the stress the collar was putting on her throat. She was gagging and choking herself. Love the pink Puppia. She looks so cute in it and she loves it when I get it out. She knows she is getting to go somewhere.

Harness never worked for Kiki. she would pull and tug and was terrible to walk with. Since my husband put her on a collar he trained her not to pull. I know many disagree with collar, but it is a good thing if you are paying close attention on them while training them so they son't injure themselves. It has been 2 years now and Kiki is great on a leash. Now we can walk with her anywhere and drop the leash, so it drags behind her, she does not realize that. She is constantly paying attention to where we are going and is with us in every step. She will however take off flying once she gets to the park, as my husband lets them both run and roam free in park. THEY LOVE PARK! OMG, I tought kids were driving me crazy with parks, you should see my dogs! i will video tape them next time, it's hilarious!

Raley used a harness until about 8-9 months ago.  Now he does well with a collar.  Depending on whether or not he is wearing clothes, I will use a collar.  If he has on a sweater or shirt with a hole for the d-ring on a harness, he can wear it.

Always a harness for Miss Ava, the only time she ever wears a collar is when I take her to the groomer's.  It is easier to take off and hang up when we get there.  I hate collars especially on little dogs.
