Many people who have only recently become dog owners are tormented by doubts: should they buy a collar for their puppy, or should they opt for a harness?
Inexperienced dog owners believe that the collar can accidentally squeeze the pet's neck and cause strangulation.
Based on this assumption, puppy owners buy a harness for their pets, which is fundamentally wrong.
The fact is that the baby is growing quickly, and at this time his skeleton is actively forming.
If the load is not distributed correctly, which is especially common with active puppies, wearing a harness will result in twisted elbows and abnormal spinal alignment.
A walking harness should be used when the dog has already grown up - for small breeds at 6-10 months, for large breeds at 1.5-2 years.
By using a well-fitting harness, the load will be transferred to the pet's chest, relieving the spine.
And if necessary, it will be easier and more convenient to grab the dog - for example, to protect it from unwanted contact with other animals - by the harness, and not by the collar.
