Thanks for watching Collor or Harness for Puppies! In the comments below tell me which tool you use (or will use) when walking or training your puppy.
Thanks for the very helpful info, as always. 😊
Thanks very helpful my pup is 12 weeks old and this really helps
I got excited that I could get puppy that I began watching these videos 2 months early
I didn’t think about dangers of collar in crate thank you
Thank you!! So helpful!!
Hi Michelle, I’ve been watching your channel for a couple of months now and I found them super helpful. I will be getting my American Eskimo pup next week hopefully.
Keep up the good work👍
Nice. I have been looking for this one.
thank u so much
i’m getting a puppy/puppies in these next couple months!!! i have been binging these videos to impress my parents 😂😂
Thank you I didn't know if I should use a collar or a harness
Hey Michelle you are awesome keep up the good work
Thank you so so much. This is exactly what I need now for a three-month-old corgi
Safety breakaway /loose comfy Collar for holding i.d, and harness for walking/in the car.
My puppy is arriving in 2 days! I am sticking with a collar initially because he is tiny and I don't want to invest in a harness until I've had some time to see his habits. I found a super light lease by Coastal at my local pet shop. THANKS so much for mentioning the the dangling pet tag issues - I hadn't thought of that - I will definitely purchase a silent one.
Congrads on the pupster😊
I got mine 3 months ago
I don’t have a dog I’m getting one I just love your videos!!!! Can you post picking the right FOOD FOR YOUR DOG
when we go on walks i use harnesses he pulls when we leave the house because hes excited but after 45 seconds he stops hes really good at walking and hes leash trained
harnesses - walk
collor - potty breaks
UPDATE: I NEVER considered how annoying the tag must sound so as soon as she mentioned the tag THANK YOU SOO MUCH i immediately got my needle and made a lil diy no sound dog tag
I got a Pomeranian puppy 2 months ago she’s getting a lot better now but first it was really hard you just have to be patient even though it’s insanely hard 😭
I’m getting a golden doodle next week and your videos have been a real help
im getting one in a few weeks
@@anthonys7236 They are so sweet
early!!! i love your channel, thank you so much 🤍
All of our dogs use harness and collars, the harness for in the car, the collar for leash walking.
Great video, some things I hadn't thought of. I don't like using a crate in the car as it's huge and awkward so I prefer to buckle my dog in in which case he'll be wearing a harness as I don't want the seat belt attached to his neck only. I also prefer a harness for long line work in the event the line hits a snag while he's running, I wouldn't want the line attached to his neck. In hot weather for swimming and walking I prefer to just have a collar on him.
Glad you enjoyed the video and learned some new things! Thanks for watching!
The Harness
My puppy is arriving in 20 days and I'm probably gonna buy both a harness and collar and see which one fits better as I don't know his size
My older sister will be getting me my first dog, a goldador in a couple of months and I'm so excited though I still need to convince my parents lmao wish me luck.
I’m supposed to get my 7 week old Boston terrier puppy next week and I’m trying to figure out what would be a good to take her out on walks because I bought a collar and a harness?
Can you do a video on “how to convince your parents to get you a dog”
I need that too
never stop trying, and say you will do everything for the dog, and do everything for the dog
@@ne7tt424 will do but I have Been researching dog and telling my parents what I know about them and that we can take care of one for 10 months but they don’t listen.
Can you give a link for a buckle collar for a small yorkie?
@@ne7tt424 I did that and now I’m getting one 😂
I like the Harness for my miniature poodle soon to be 4 months. I find the step in faster and easier…y parter likes over the which takes time if the puppy has to go potty.
Kudos to you for finding what works best for you and your puppy! Thanks for watching!
We just got a cane corso 8 week puppy is it ok to use harness? We must change to a collar after?
Hi Michelle, I love your videos and will definitely do your course when my puppy is more than a glimmer in the parents' eyes... One thing I can't find anywhere: it will be a yorkie, so tiny/delicate and I'll use an appropriate harness. But logistically... I'm in a condo, will be taking the elevator down countless times a day... during the day, is it safe to keep it on when I'm around and when she's having her quiet crate time? Or should I figure out how to scoop her up, get her to the elevator, harness her in the elevator, for all those trips outside? I would really appreciate your input.
Hey Lynda, great question. We advise against leaving the harness on while your puppy is going about her day, as it can get caught on things and be dangerous. You can work through some cooperative care with her to make putting her harness on an easy task. You can join our online course for additional guidance from our trainers on how to teach this to your pup! 30 Days to Puppy Perfection: www.howtotrainadreamdog.com/puppy-perfection-course-learn-more/
@@HowToTrainADreamDog Thanks! I will join the course for sure, but I still have months before my pup... I'll wait until it's closer for max effect.
I have siberian husky n he is 2 months🙏

Im thinking of switching to a harness mostly for all the extra options, fashion and the stance that its not nessesarily the tool but the training behind it. so if I can train my dog similarly to using a collar, I think harnesses look cooler so I will give it a try and see if its a good fit.
Go for it!
I prefer the harness. Did not think/know about the tags being so close to the ears. But what to do about a rabies tag? A girlfriend said you only need to get a certificate that you don't have to have the tag. So that might resolve that issue.
Yes, just in case you need to show it, you can have the certificate. There are also products call tag silencers that keep the tags from jingling.
Hi michelle, what do you recomend for leash and collar for 8 weeks old toy poodle?
For more specific questions regarding training, we recommend you post your questions in the Puppy Training with Michele Lennon Facebook group: howtotrainadreamdog.com/FB-group
I don’t see the travel harness link-can you share which one it is? Thanks!
We like this one for the car: howtotrainadreamdog.com/carseat-harness
Hi. Good video. However I have a question: I don´t have a puppy. I have an adult dog, doberman and he is so sweet and hardly ever pull. And I do love the retractable leash. Which collar should I use for a retractable leash? Thanks so much
Hi Ricardo! We do not recommend retractable leashes, even if you don't have a puller on your hands. Check out this blog for more info on why these are not safe for you or your dog: www.howtotrainadreamdog.com/no-pulling-puppy-tools-to-walk-with-ease/ Click the collar link for our favorite collar!
@@HowToTrainADreamDog I am so sorry but I 100% disagree. As anything the problem is not the tool is how you use the tool and if the person handling it has common sense. If there is traffic (people or dogs) and you let a long leash, well... come on. Common sense. A car is a great tool or a super dangerous one, depends who´s driving it. Accident happens because people are chatting or checking their cell phones and not paying attention. Not because of the retractable leash 🤦🏼♂️ Tanks anyways.
hey for a puppy is it okay to use a retractable leash when taking them out too potty?
We do not recommend retractable leashes. A regular 4 ft or 6 ft leash is best.
What should I do if my puppy keeps biting on her leash? Thus not allowing me to take her on walks and I can’t tire her out so she is too energetic
Hi. We are picking up our 8 weak old pomchi next week . We bought a harness because the breeder advised us not to use a collar . Can we use a collar like you demonstrated attached to a leash for night tome potty breaks?. I am confused on what to do. I can't see myself trying to get a harness on everytime I need to take her outside during the night. Help!
Congrats on your new puppy! You're on the right track. An easy collar for nighttime potty breaks is a great plan.
Would you recommend a slip lead leash?
Not for a puppy. Can be dangerous!
my dog likes collars
I really want a dog but my parents wont let me. It would be my dream to get a cavachon so I'm trying to convince them to get me one. They think it will be too much work but I'm prepared to get up early and do whatever it takes to look after one. Do u have any tips in helping to convince parents you are ready for a dog?
hi, my mum was like that as well but I am getting a dog in January x I'd say keep talking about dogs everyday and all the positive things and the stuff u will help with and if u have siblings as them to help you xx and send videos and show pictures of the same breed of dogs ( I'd say from Pinterest because there are a lot of nice pictures there ) hope this helps xx
you can use good thinks about puppies and that you understand that puppies are a very big responsibility and that you are willing to train them and take care of them and that you will clean them and they wont have to worry about except for the food
@@chiarastewart1003 thankyou I have been sending her loads if pictures and things but I dont know if it's working... I love walking dogs so that wouldn't be a worry for them
rodriguez thankyou I will keep trying and fingers crossed u can get one
Years ago a friends son announced “ he wished he was blind” 😳
He said that way he could have a dog!
He got a dog that year for Christmas 🎄😘
In the U.K. I think you have to wear both
I live in the uk and my puppy wears both
So for a small 6 pound Frenchie would you suggest a harness? I feel like the collar is gonna choke him.
Hopefully this video offered some help with choosing which would be best for your pup! Here is the link to some of the harnesses we recommend: www.amazon.com/shop/howtotrainadreamdog/list/3BF6HJ0Z6S6RN
what size is a good for a puppie poodle
Be sure to measure your pup's neck and read the sizing chart on the packaging 🥰
There have been several coyote incidents in my area, so I'm going with a harness. Do you think the coyote vests are actually effective or just gimmicky?
Prevention is a better strategy rather than getting all the way to the point of a coyote attacking and then moving away. The spines on the harness will likely bother the pup and increase the heat. So I'd go to other areas where coyotes are not present and of course never let the dog out alone.
@@HowToTrainADreamDog Unfortunately, coyotes are now urban animals and everywhere... at least in the capital city in Ottawa... they are just geniuses at being invisible. I'm also worried and I will be very vigilante with my new puppy, but I appreciate the cons for the specific harness and will not choose it.
I use a harness for my baby chihuahua. He doesn’t pull at all. He walks perfectly and it’s only been a week since I got him. Just walks next to me or behind, sometimes wanders off but if I call his name he follows me. It’s all about respecting the dog I think. He knows I’m his leader, I feed and protect so he naturally follows 🤷🏼♀️
It's awesome that he's doing so well. Have you seen this video? It might give you some info on what's to come. Spoiler alert: that great skill of walking on a leash might not stick around without some additional training! :) ua-cam.com/video/JZMNm1PLwFI/v-deo.html
my puppy is not a puller,she's lazy as hell! Sometimes when I'm potty training her she would just lay and I have to carry her
Actually this isn't lazy ... It sounds like your pup is not quite ready for all the “scary things” of the outside world. This is common for this age of a puppy and the limited amount of time he has spent working on leash skills and being outside.
The behavior you are seeing (laying down, refusing to move) is called pancaking and is a common sign of a puppy being overwhelmed and scared. It’s important to listen to a dog’s body language - that’s how they are communicating to us. If we push our pups past their comfort zone, we could create some lifelong challenges with new things and new environments.
When we see this behavior it means it’s time to work on leash skills at home, then slowly increase the levels of distractions. You can then change environments to places that are outside but still very calm, like your backyard or the garage and eventually working in your driveway. This could take weeks or months and should only progress as your pup is 100% comfortable. Knowledge of canine body language will be important so you know when it’s time to increase the distractions. During this time, decompression walks might be the best way to get your pup some exercise.
Take a look at this recent blog for all the great info on leash skills. The actual training games, as well as lessons on canine communication, are covered in the online course.

Harnesses do not prevent pulling. Harnesses are designed to encourage pulling. If you want to prevent pulling use a head harness, which is also safe to use with puppies.
Thanks so much for commenting. With proper training any dog can wear a harness and not pull. All 3 of my dogs can wear a harness, collar or head halter and they have been trained not to pull no matter what tool is on them. Teaching your dog where you want them to be and reinforce them for being in the right position at your side can help!
I just got harness, been using collar for two years, she always slip out for The harness has been a game changer.
80% need a course lma
So sorry we are just seeing this comment now. I apologize that we didn’t see it sooner. We hope all is well with you and your pup.
There're more adverts and links to other videos than the actual information. This video could be 3 minutes long
What idiot leaves a puppy in a crate with their harness or lead on?
Many people don't realize they need to take it off. Thanks for your feedback.
I do but I'm not gonna leave it on all night
