What size harness do I need for an 8 week old German Shepherd puppy?
Full Question:
Hi Cindy,Which puppy harness is recommended in Leerburg's puppy training videos, and which size should be purchased for an 8 week old German Shepherd puppy?
Cindy's Answer:
Congrats on the new puppy!
We suggest an inexpensive nylon adjustable harness since large breed puppies grow so quickly. Most likely you'll need to invest in a couple of them before your pup is grown up enough for his or her adult size.
Sizing goes by girth measurement which can vary a lot between puppies of the same age and breed so I would suggest measuring your pup. I would say small is most common for an average GSD pup. But please measure your pup (or ask your breeder if the puppy is not with you yet) they change and grow so fast!
