Can your dog wear this and still do it's "business" ?

Yes". There is only a strap with Velcro under the belly and the back is open. They can do all they need to do with coats on. It is vey cold right now,

Yes the second strap is on the chest/stomach region, so there is plenty of space between the strap and dogs privates.

Oh, yes he can. Just make sure the belt is snug (velcrow tightly). This is because my dog still likes to squat to pee & not lift his leg. Hope this helps you decide.

Yes. I have a 70lb greyhound male, the strap doesn't get in the way at all.

Don't know if that will be a problem. This is not designed as a pet garment. Might be uncomfortable for long time wear. It's not a very soft material. It is tightly woven to be durable. Plus there are lift handles which hang when not in use that may awkward when not in use. I have a very tolerant large dog and I would never consider leaving him in a harness for any longer than needed to get in and out of car or to move him as needed.

We have that yes he always needs to wear it. He is a pup still and forgets alot. So there is constant needs for reminders for us!

No. It fits around the dogs neck just like any other collar and fur doesn't matter.

Eek..Since my dog does not 'go' while wearing it, I have not yet washed it! I was planning on hand-washing, though since is so small.

I have two dogs, one which has a longer body then the other. The longer dog was able to with no problem. My smaller dog ended up going on his but I think it was more user error then anything else. As long as you pay attention to how you are wrapping the shirt around the dog, you should be fine.

Yes, but not while the harness is in use. If the dog is wearing the harness while at rest or play the straps could easily loosen allowing the harness to slip off. I do not recommend keeping the harness on 24 hrs a day.

No, I've never had a problem with that. My Toulouse wears a collar continually because he is a very excitable fellow. Kathy

I agree with the other answer that if sized and fitted correctly, the dog shouldn't be able to back out of it.

Keeping it doesn't bother the dog, and it's a neat little collar so it's not a necessity to take it off, but if you want to give him another collar, for appearances later on after he obeys all commands without correction then you could do that too

I would say no because you can't leave it on all the time because it could cause sores on the dogs neck. if you put it on the main collar, he/she wouldn't have his tags at the times you remove it.

Unless your dog gains or looses weight, no. This collar is difficult to adjust because it's a slip/choke collar design. It's designed for dogs with larger a head than their neck so it's going to be loose. It needs to fit over the dogs head. this collar is hopefully only meant for a walking collar. I would not put this on my furbaby unattended.

It can be. It's maybe not ideal, but in a pinch (when we are traveling), I walk the dog in this. It's a bit more "firm" fit than a normal walking harness so not sure I'd rely on this for more than an occasional use.

if you are asking if you can make the dog wear the diaper, i guess it depends on the dog, but mine does keep it on. he does not try to remove it, and i noticed he seems to need to go out less at night but not sure if that is related to the diaper. My biggest problem is remembering to put it on at night. I don't keep it on during the day because he goes in and out too much.

It is not safe to leave this on your dog as his regular collar. It can be hazardous, both because of the danger of choking and the danger of injury. I took a dog (a pit bull) off leash but left this collar on, turned my back for literally a few seconds, and the next thing I knew, she had her paw caught in the collar. This is a great training collar, but it's ONLY a training collar.

I have accidentally left it on the dog all day and it was OK but I wouldn't recommend it on a regular basis. Great collar though.

If you are consistent and work with them a lot it will train them to walk politely with a normal collar. You can't just use the collar and then expect that they will know to translate that behavior to a regular one. There are training instructions provided in the package if I recall correctly. Personally I just this continually with my dog because it is safer than having the pressure on the neck.
