Help. My 4-month-old Chiweenie hates clothes, and harnesses. He growls and bites aggressively if I even attempt to put one on him. Typically he is the most laid back pup and nothing bothers him. He's at the age where we can bring him outside more often but refuses a harness and I am too scared to put a leash on a collar around his little throat. I have tried everything from having him lick peanut butter while I try to put it on she's getting treats over and over every time he is near the harness. Is there a safe color for his tiny neck that I can attach a lightweight leash? You live in Michigan where the weather is unpredictable so one day it might be really hard and then we need hoodies that night. He also is refusing all clothes How can I make them a positive experience for him?

Hi Busta's mom, I already answered you in the other comment but in case you didn't see it, I'll copy and paste the answer here: Unfortunately every collar can cause throat and neck problems. I was going to tell you the steps but this YouTube video does the exact same thing that I would tell you to get him used to his harness: https://youtu.be/Tn5b8u1YS_g The only thing I would add is that once you do manage to get it on, you should try keeping it on for a while to get him comfortable with it. Also, this same method works for getting them used to clothes too.

She needs to see a vet. It may be cancer.
