I found the perfect Yorkie Bicycle Basket after months of looking. I started with my local bike shop which only had an inferior wicker basket with no accomodations to make the dog comfortable, safe and secure. I then found what appeared to be a better basket from Midnight Pass. I ordered it and weeks later, after charging my credit card, they still could not tell me when they would ship it so I cancelled. I went to Google and did a little international research and found the perfect basket from a German company, Rixen Kaul. It is called the Doggy. I found a few US retailers after some difficulty. This one had the best prices and was great to work with. www.thorusa.com Click on KLICK-fix in the left column. The DOGGY bag is fabulous! Size: 15" x 11" x 10" Weight capacity: 15.4 lbs. This bag has a padded bottom, a click strap that you hook through the dog's harness so it cannot jump out, all parts of it are removable and washable. It makes a fantastic carrier. I have taken our 9 lb Yorkie, Zoee, to the library, bank, and drug store on my bike and then the KLICK-fix comes off the bike so easily--the push of a button. The Doggy is a fantastic carrier for shopping with the dog. It has a rain cover and can be sealed up enough that the dog is contained--required for taking a dog on the DC subway. I've enjoyed riding the dog around and usung the bag as a carrier so much that my spouse also got a KLICK-fix bracket for his bike. It is really nice to see technology--even a bike bag and bracket--make my life easier.
