Anyone have a Pet Fly's Puppy Sling? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

BubblPopElectrc · 02-11-2008, 12:24 PM

Anyone have one of these? How do you like it?

Any possibly someone would be able to make a less expensive version (in a different fabric)?

ETA: Now that I look at the how-to video I can't decide if it looks comfortable, haha.

I think Shana had some pet slings on her site at one time...I haven't looked in awhile, but you might check there.

Also, Sonja (Mitzi's Mom -- pocomutt) could more than likely make that too!

Good luck!

I don't have a Pet Fly's sling, but I just bought a cloth cross-body sling from Old Navy and have been using it for Pixie. She's 4.5 lbs and has more than enough room. It is pretty big so I just push the excess fabric down once she's in so she can see out of it. She likes to have her one leg dangling outside of it. It's only $12.50!

I didn't want to spend a lot of money because I wasn't sure if she'd like it. It's very comfy to wear.

I have a black Outward Hound sling that I never use. If anyone is interested let me know.

I just bought a cross/body sling on ebay for $15.00. It is cloth. The lady makes them for skin babies and also for dogs.

I do not have a sling like this but have a messenger carrier that crosses over like a sling and I love it and so does Mia.

we have a sling that I bought here from someone and Gizmo loves it... haven't gone out with it yet but he likes to lie in it and look out... too cute..

That doesnt look to safe for your baby to be in.. If your not alert to their every move they can be out and gone or hurt in a second.. I've seen these not particularly petflys but the slings on ebay.

~Yorkie~Mommy~ · 02-12-2008, 07:13 AM

I like it but Bailey is so crazy, I'd be afraid he would jump out

Little Bit · 02-12-2008, 07:15 AM

The Outward Hound one that I have has a strap to hook on their harness so they can't fall out.

I made one for Sammy a while back and also one for a friend. The funny thing is that my friend has a lot of nice carriers and THAT is the one that she gets asked about all the time.

I'm not very experienced at sewing so this was an experiment, but it really is comfortable to wear. I can take a better picture of it when I get home. I used like 4 yards of fabric so it's not cheap to make and it took me about 3 days to make, but again it was the first one I'd ever made. My friend's turned out better. I'm going to make Sammy another one soon and try to improve the pattern.

The Pet Flys slings are cool but you can also buy baby slings in a wide variety of fabrics if that is what you are looking for.

Those are cute, and it says they have a safety chain, I assume it clips to their harness. I'm really thinking about getting one for my husband to wear, Luna is all over him whenever he's home
