"Our dachshund had neck surgery 4 weeks ago. We needed a harness that wouldn't apply pressure to his neck area. We've had other type harnesses in the past. We've never used a collar. These harnesses are cute, well made and do the job...keeping pressure off the neck. However there are 2 snap buckles...."
