Anyhow, everytime I talked to someone about a stroller they laughed. They sais DOGS WALK, thats what they do, thats what they LIKE TO DO. While I agree, I am afraid to get one because people will laugh at me, and I dont want to deal with it, because I will go off. And I dont like feeling that way.
Lacy definitely walks most of the time, but if I take her shopping with me, to a long outdoor event, etc. it's so nice to have.

right after I got my stroller, my best friend and I drove to Austin for a weekend. We stopped in San Marcus for the day to go to the huge outlets before heading on to austin and our hotel. We had our two yorkies with us. It was so convenient to put them in the stroller and shop. Then the next day we walked all around downtown Austin...so much walking that I was so tired. There is no way Lacy could have walked that far. And since they were in the stroller, they even got to go in the capitol. I use my stroller at the mall a lot too because I take Lacy shopping with me. We also had an outdoor dog event here last fall and I had Lacy and Rylie with me. There were so many people and dogs that I didn't want them walking around. It was so nice to have the stroller to walk them around in. I also used my stroller at a dog show that I took Lacy too...much better than carrying her around all day. And she got to sleep in her stroller while we watched the show.
