There are many ways to introduce your rabbit to a new harness. But you may want to train him in his early stages this way he can have a longer period of time to get used to it.Also, when you first get it dont immediately put it on him; first let him see it and snoiff it. Occasionally putting it in front of him and letting him play with it.Tell him it's okay and it wont hurt him. Give him a while to adapt to it.He may not take to it right away. First after a while slip it on him; then if he doesnt take it right away let him know it wont hurt him then try again.if you do successfully get him in it before you put the leash on let him run around with it on for a while this way he can get used to it After a period of time introduce the leash to him the same way.Good luck!!

∙ 15y agoHalter- or commonly mistaken as the harness, can be put on a pony or horse by holding it up to yourself. Look at it. There should be a little latch hanging off the end of something. It should be on the lower part of the halter. there should be a small space that looks like where the ears should go. It does. They do go there. Do you know your horses bridle? The ear hole for the horse is the same look as the halter. Slip that on and and pull it through your horses muzzle.
Here is a picture of a halter. http://www.drafttack.comSHOEBIT.jpg

∙ 12y agoYou put the first part in front of the front feet and the second attachment in front of the back feet. Isn't there a manual?
The thing is, with my rabbit harness, you don't put it over the rabbit's head! You strap it on around their middle. Mine has a leash to walk my rabbit, Charlie, any where. Also, Charlie hates the harness, because he thinks he's under attack. So if your rabbit starts to squirm, or starts making weird noises, get someone to hold the rabbit while you strap it on.

How do you harness train a rabbit?
Get the rabbit to be used to you first, then put the harness close to her at all times so she will get used to the harness. Then gently try to put it on her, but don't push, force, or stress, otherwise the rabbit will lose its trust in you, and you need its trust. Slowly get your bunny used to the harness, just do it in a gentle way. Be patient. This can take days, months, even years! But don't get frustrated.

Can a bunny wear a collar I am worried we are going to step on him or not know where he is so the purpose is to have a bell on the collar and put it on only when he is running about?
a collar, no, it could choke them. but if you look in your local pet shop, they may have what is called a rabbit harness or a small cat harness, or a guinea pig harness. i use a small cat harness on my rabbits. if it doesn't already have a bell on it, (most of them do) you can buy a little bell and attach it yourself. believe me, it works pretty well. i have never had a case of a stepped on rabbit in my house! lol! :) i hope i helped!

Can you put baby oil on a rabbit?
No, you can't put baby oil on a rabbit. Anything you put on a rabbit will end up inside the rabbit because rabbits clean themselves by licking themselves. Baby oil is not safe for a rabbit to ingest and can make the rabbit sick. There is no good reason to put baby oil or any kind of oil on a rabbit. If your rabbit is sick, you should bring it to a vet who has experience and knowledge in treating rabbits.
How do you get a hamster in to a harness?
There are few styles of rabbit harness out there and they don't all go on the same way. The instructions on the package should tell you how to put your harness on your rabbit. If there are no instructions, consider contacting the company to ask for advice; the company may also have instructions on their website. Failing that, there are general instructions to be found online (see the link below for one of them).Any time you put your rabbit in something (a harness, clothing, etc.), make sure your rabbit came move freely and naturally. If the rabbit's movement is constrained at all, remove the harness because this can lead to the rabbit panicking, and it can lead to injury or disability. Be careful when putting on the harness but make sure it is tight enough, otherwise the rabbit will remove it. However, don't put the harness on too tight: make sure you fit it so you can fit 2 fingers between the harness and your rabbit. Do not use the harness if your rabbit is stressed, unwell or pregnant.Some rabbits love being outside on their lead, but you can't walk them as they go where they want. Remember - the rabbit is walking you, not you walking the rabbit. Do not pull on your rabbits lead as it may begin to roll on its back and get very stressed and try to get the harness off.There are many risks involved in bringing your rabbit outside (see the related question below for details): if you're considering it, esearch the risks first, consider your situation carefully, and take precautions if you choose to let your rabbit outside. For example, watch the lead: if it is left in front of a bunny's mouth too long she will chew it. Also, be careful because dogs can get your rabbit extremely stressed and scared. Just a warning to keep a look out for dogs (also cats, raccoons, falcons; all manner of predator animals, really). And some rabbits don't enjoy walks, or they try to get away (in which case, leave the rabbit inside; or, shorten the lead a bit by rolling it in on your hand and keep him/her close to you till he/she is calm, and once they are calm it might be safe to let them on the longer lead again, but if they do this reaction again it is best to put him/her back into the hutch and try again on the next day.
