| Pet carriers for the guys I have the gold Kwigy-bo bag in large for my big girl, Jamie. She is now a little over 11 pounds. She loves the bag and I try to take her as many places as we can. We were in Las Vegas and we were walking down the strip with her. Too crowded to let her walk most of the time but after several blocks, she was getting really heavy. I'm petite about 5 feet and 115lbs but I am pretty strong. But I'm also not a youngster and I didn't want to injure myself. My husband said he would carry her for me. He looked ridiculous with the gold bag but he didn't care. And what goes on in Vegas stays ..... LOL But I was thinking about getting another bag that would be better for him to carry so we can share the load. Any ideas. I was looking at the camo Alexa from KB. Anyone have that Bag. I am particularly interested in hearing from guys or their wives/girlfriends on what bags the guys like. |

| I have a black bag that Chad doesn't mind carrying, even thought it's very obvious a woman's bag, lol. It's one of those disguised bags. Anyway, Zeus would just be taken out of the bag and held as we walk. We do that often - take Zeus out and I'll carry the bag and Chad will carry Zeus.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Pet Gear Black Messenger Bag at PETCO I know this bag isn't the right size for your girl, but I think this style is perfect for men to carry around little dogs in LOL ... because it is comfortable for the pets ... but isn't a purse. Motor Trend Universal Sport Bag Pet Carrier at PETCO This one is a "sports" type bag so to speak. I think sports bags and messenger styled bags work perfectly for men to carry their pets in. The dogs cans till stick their heads out and look around, and they are comfortable for the pets. They aren't purses but they are just as easy to carry around. I don't know if either of these bags would work for your dog, but I figured that you could look into that style at least if your husband likes them! (they are a bit pricey, though). |

| Oh thanks. I should have mentioned that we were going in and out of shops also and although some places don't care, we were trying not to be obvious. And I didn't want to keep taking her in and out of the bag. So for situations like this any ideas for man purses. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Amazon.com: Sherpa Pet Carriers DSH44031 Sport... Is this one a little more inconspicuous for shopping? I don't think I would be expecting a little dog to be hiding in there ^-^ I would think he was just carrying a messenger bag. There is a video review about it but I haven't watched it yet. It is also on sale right now!! And lots of extra "carrying stuff" pockets Last edited by Clyde_Dexter; 12-22-2012 at 04:09 PM. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Haha. I know I keep posting but I keep finding more bag options for you! I ran into a similar problem with needing a less feminine but still inconspicuous dog bag and these are all the bag options I found. Airline Approved Unisex Town Pet Carrier I still think this bag looks feminine, though? But it is listed as unisex. Sherpa Tote Around Town Carrier - Black This one looks like a pet bag ... but a little less so? |

| I got this one in denim a couple of years ago. Mine is only 5 pounds, but it is for up to I think 12. I love it, it's structured enough that it doesn't sag. And it's not so "foo foo" that a man should be uncomfortable carrying it--mine does! Pet Carriers | Wayfair[]=2597167&gclid=CLHR8p6ir7QCFYxaMgodb1MAeg
