so rikku is almost six months and has clearly outgrown her 10 dollar harness that i first got her... just kind of curious what every one did for the in between stage before buying them their adult harnesses

We bought this one for Kai when she was around 6 months. Could not recommend it higher.

but does it still fit her now? im afraid to spend money on a harness just for her to out grow it in another couple months...

one way or another i have to get a harness because she managed to slip out her collar the other day while we were close to a busy road and scared the crap out of me... luckly she didnt want to run she just wanted to play catch me if you can and stayed in a small yard, until i got one of the people who were laughing at us to let me pretend like i was taking their car for a ride lol...

Yes, she's only 7 months now so she has not grown that much, but it's adjustable and they sell them in weight ranges:

Size guide - fit by weight:
6-11 lbs
9-16 lbs
10-25 lbs
18-33 lbs (will fit to almost 38 lbs)
25-55 lbs (will fit to almost 65 lbs)
55-110 lbs (will fit to almost 120 lbs)
110-250 lbs

We bought the 25-55 pounds one, knowing she may not get past 55 pounds and if she happens to, we'll upgrade, but she'll be fine for some time.

Agree. This is my everyday harness.

At first it pretty much eliminated all pulling, but now he's figured out he can turn his body to pull. Still better than the regular harness though.

I bought Karli a harness at about 7 months and she's over a year now and has not grown out of it at all. The 25-55 one would definitely work if Rikku isn't overly large.
