Thank you all for the feedback. I looked all over again online today & even found the under the seat measurements for the airplanes we will be flying on. I continued to be dismayed by all the sizes and even though I wanted something with wheels I liked your idea Suzy.

Then today I happened to go into Petco and looked at some things there - I had decided against the wheeled suitcase type of thing they had because I was afraid it was too wide at the base & too solid to squish down if need be under the seat. I even looked at one of their strollers that has a removable bag - that way I could get thru the airport with ease & have the bag to carry-on (& a way to get the dogs around for the KC 2008 Meetup

) --the strollers were on sale like $30 off.

I seriously looked at the beautiful black $99 Sherpa bag with the roll down shades. But LuvtheCooper, your words about not spending much money, because flying was the only time you ever used your bags - and I thought I'll be the same way as I already have a couple of fashion carriers and I don't even use them that often.

Then I saw a $16 clearance sign for a single bag that was left - it's royal blue - not the color I probably would have picked if I had a choice, but I tried the dogs in it and it was actually roomier when turned on it's side (like to go under the seat) than the Sherpa bag & fit to a tee the words I heard you all saying!

I just tucked the dogs in it again as I was measuring the bag at home. I had it zipped for a minute, then I unzipped it and told them both they could come out, but they both laid down and have been sleeping inside it now for almost an hour

- lol

So, I guess that's the bag
