| Anyone have the Alyson Kwigy-Bo bag? I am looking at an Alyson bag by Kwigy-Bo. The only pictures I have seen are from the sides or ends. I need to see a picture from the top. Are there two zippers there or one? if there are two parallel zippers what is the closing between the two at the other end? I just need to make sure it is escape proof as I have had pups wrangle the opening up between double zippers. I am talking about the space between the ends of the gold chain. If anyone has one or has seen one in person please let me know about this. If you can post pictures of the top that would be great, too!! Thanks in advance!

| I have it. There are 2 zippers and the end closes with velcro. It does have a tether if you're worried about escape. I'd be happy to take pictures from whatever angle you want to see. I really like mine.

| I just took a few- I'm not sure if they are what you need to see- just let me know. 1st is from top unzipped (Sugar is 4 pounds for reference. He has a ton of room- way more than it looks like in this pic).Picture_1457sm.jpg This is where the velcro closure is.Picture_1458sm.jpg From top unzipped.Picture_1459sm.jpg

| I have the Alyson bag and it is not escape proof. Wenny can push her way out where the velcro is between the zippers. This was a problem when I flew to Iowa to get her...on our way home she actually got out and I didn't even know it (as I had no idea she'd try or actually be able to push her way out)! She started walking down the aisle of the plane! Now, she only tries to get out once and a while. Although, if the bag is on the ground (especially on a plane), she is more likely to try and get out. I still love the bag because it looks like a large purse, and it has pockets on the outside, so I can put my stuff in them. Hope that's helpful! Ashley

| Thank you so much Nikki and Ashley! That is exactly what I needed to know. Hmmm...I really like it. I wish they made it with just one zipper or had one of those little turn lock things. Do you know if the zippers are locking zippers like the ones on Celtei bags so they can't push them open further with their noses?

How funny/scary! How did you find out? Did another passenger see her and say something? Thank goodness she was in an enclosed area and not in the airport or something! That is what I am afraid of. I had a similar opening on a bag and they could get out pretty easily.

| Hope you get one if that is what you are looking for. It seems to be really roomy. I love taking mine with me.

| I have it and I love it and Keoki never escapes from it- there is a hook that you can attach to his/her collar- for flying though I always use a sherpa bag- I feel it is roomier and more comfortable for a long ride- I use different bags for different things but I think you would love the Alyson bag Good luck! |

| I don't think the zippers lock. Sugar just lays down so I'm not an expert on the escape possibilities. It is a lot roomier than I thought it would be though and you do have the option of attaching the tether to the harness. Quote:

| this bag is adorable. in my experience with carriers is to try them in a store. i bought so many that were not good for me. some were size or quality issues and others hurt my shoulder. i would look for a real store and test drive it there.
