Walking with your dog is supposed to be good exercise as well as relaxing, but it's hard to get into it when your dog is always tangled in her leash.

The Cotton Vest Harness made by Pet Collars & More solves this problem. The cotton vests are made for small dogs. The vest fastens with Velcro at the neck and stomach with the leash attached on the back. Not only is it a breeze to put on, but it is also much healthier than a standard collar for a small dog because it takes all the pressure off the dog's trachea. And, yes, they are cute.

They come in a variety of patterns and sizes starting with Tiny for about $18. Go to the harness section at: www.petcollarsandmore.com.
