Frequently Asked Questions

A lightweight, durable harness works great for small dogs. It should allow full range of motion and be sized appropriately. Check out our Hi & Light™ Harness – our harness most popular among small dogs.

Small dogs can benefit from wearing a harness when walking and hiking, especially on leash. Compared to collars, a small dog harness limits the pressure and strain on your dog’s neck and throat. A harness is often more secure as well if your dog has a knack for backing out or slipping from their collar.
