Thistle and willow got a leash and harness each today in town, on the holiday, we just got back

i tried it on thistle, slowly, slowly, getting her patted, with food, in her favourite place with little daisy by her side, to try to associate it with good things

well she didnt like it much but i expected that, so i got it on, and left her for about 5 minutes, and took it off.

i put it on gradually
sitting it in front of her, draping it over her back
putting her head through it
and then doing it up

well she was pretty good, but was that done well or should i do it differently???
