I would let her wear it for all day.Then hook the leash to it and supervised
let her walk around with it.After she gets used to it.Add a lil weight of some
sort to get her used to haveing a pull of the leash....That is how I trained
Sisco.He was a yr old and had never been on a leash.Plus after she is used to
it.try a dual type leash and hook both together as if they were walking side to
side.And she will get used to it.

1st is Bailey she is a long hair,6 months old and weighs about 4 1/2 lbs
2nd is Tutti a little short hair, weighs about 3 lbs and is 3 1/2
months old.
I tried to put a collar on Bailey and a harness on Tutti yesterday to
take them out with me to walk in my yard and Bailey went crazy, it was
so bad I thought she was having an attack of some kind! When I
finally got the collar off she went upstairs and got in my bed and
wouldn't come down for several hours not even for a treat.
Tonight I tried the harness on her (Bailey) same thing. Tutti came
right over and let me put the harness on her but with Bailey ...no way,
she is upstairs as I write this. I hate it because they both stand at
the screen door and cry when I'm outside.
Is there anyway I can get Bailey over this fear? I can't let her run
loose outside even by my side there are to many cats and big dogs in my
neighborhood. Thanks for any imput on this...Brenda
