    I don't like harnesses. I read something recently that putting them on too young a puppy can do nasty things to their shoulder formation as they grow. MUCH better to use a Gentle Leader as a training tool or as @eeeefarm suggests, a martingale collar. That way you control the head of your dog and can train it properly.

    No I haven't and I need to… I have taken some great ones of her lounging in the sunshine. She loves taking in those rays....

    Home is a dog's "territory" and sometimes they will protect it as such (especially against other dogs)… Possibly the breeder is concerned this would be an issue. Maybe she would consider meeting somewhere "neutral" with you and some of the dogs...

    @Robin_n_Jack: Ha! And all this time, I thought that jack's mom had thought the first ear was so good she decided to taste the other one! HAHAHAHAHAHA! OH my gosh that's hilarious!

    I got one made for Ruby from Around the Hounds…it is absolutely gorgeous and really well made. http://www.aroundthehounds.com/c237431.2.html I sent measurements to them to double check on the size. They were really nice and helpful, it took about 3 weeks (they were out of town for a week) from the day I placed the order.

    My husband and I have both been in 9yrs And with bugs,lol, best thing for anywhere: ensure they don't have hiding spots and use flea and tick meds
