@JCongdon You are very welcome. And, your poor harness-averse poodle! I can relate – my Vizsla (may she rest in peace) HATED anything on her body and looked like Max, the dog from Grinch, anytime I put on a harness. I ended up using a martingale collar for her as a regular collar would slip right over her skinny skull. I could have worked through a desensitization protocol, for sure, but as badly as she hated them, I figured it was better for her to avoid them altogether. I prefer simple solutions!
With your poodle, is using some other equipment an option?
