Hello!

I would like to buy a harness for my 8 months old lagotto romagnolo pup that fits perfectly. He is around 11 kg right now and we expect him to still grow a bit. I have recently purchased a harness at Fressnapf (AniOne, Classic X harness, size S-M) but it bothers me so much it does not fit him perfectly.

Could you please recommend some harnesses that you use? We are located in Europe.

Thank you in advance!

Background: university student, about to graduate. Luckily have had 6+ internships and will have a full time job so money is not really the main concern here (got pet insurance too). My university is pretty close so I live at home, don’t go to lectures (just the exams) so home most of the time other than when I’m interning, it’s usually hybrid (2 days in office). Live with parents and two siblings (one is 10) another is helping with the puppy.

Is it normal to be constantly anxious about your puppy swallowing/eating stuff. He’s like 9 weeks so he’s curious and sniffs everything, chews rocks etc.

He’s doing fine in terms of sleep, eating etc. Surprisingly able to sleep for 6/7 hours then goes to the bathroom in the morning.

Does it get better, do they get to an age where there smarter about what they put in their mouth and eat?

Thanks.

Also, I’m open to any advice. I have crate and playpen setup. He likes the crate so not a problem there. Just when I take him out for play.

We have a 6 month old puppy who wakes up from her crate at random times over the night crying- sometimes 2am, sometimes 4am. We have a neighbour with a health problem and it is waking her up and causing problems. When she wakes up, she does not need the toilet or water, she just gets up onto the sofa and falls back asleep. We have got her a bigger crate (thought space might be the issue). We have tried waking up before her, to get her used to us waking her up, but she just ends up getting earlier. We have tried letting her bark it out, but it didn't work and we can't anymore because of the neighbour.

We know we are being too soft and are rewarding her with letting her out, but we don't know what to do. We need a full night's sleep, please can anyone offer some advice.
