Can my dog wear a harness instead of a collar?

Your dog can wear a harness instead of a collar, and many pet parents prefer them for added comfort and control. If you do choose a harness instead of a collar for walks, be sure to attach your dog’s ID tags to the harness, or get a personalized harness with your contact info on it in case your dog runs off.

Can a dog wear both a collar and a harness?

A dog can wear a collar and a harness, and many pet parents choose both for added convenience and safety. Many choose to have their dog wear a collar with ID tags at all times and attach the harness only for walks. There should be no safety issues with having your dog wear a collar and a harness at the same time.

How do you clean dog collars and harnesses?

Clean a dog collar and harness according to the care instructions that came with them. Nylon or cloth harnesses and collars are usually machine or hand washable for easy care. Liquid dish detergent and dog shampoo are effective, gentle cleaners that are also less likely to irritate your dog’s skin. For leather collars and harnesses, use an approved leather cleaner or follow the instructions for care. Be sure to never clean collars and harnesses with anything that may be harmful or irritating to your dog.
