| pet carrier for 12lb yorkie Does anyone have suggestions for a pet carrier for a larger yorkie? My yorkie is 5.5 pounds at 4 months. I think he is going to end up being a big yorkie. |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Have you checked Target yet? I've seen some nice, reasonably priced carriers there. Also, petsmart has some for $15 right now - good sizes too.

| My boy at 10lbs...even if he can still fit in a carrier bag, I can't hold him longer than 10 minutes...I am very petite though and my shoulder really hurts carrying him...If you prefer something longer term, you can consider those stroller/carrier/car seat products better value for your money at the end.

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | I too use a stroller most of the time. The carriers weigh too much...I'm little too. |

| I use a stroller for my two My boy is just over 10lbs and my girl is 3.5lbs, so they fit in the stroller comfortably. I never did find a carrier that I liked that was comfortable for Miko too, so we decided on a stroller
