Callie is around 16 pounds but still seems so small to me and although she is very friendly and loves dogs and people if we are at a pet expo or any where crowded she gets a little overwhelmed and will beg me to pick her up and 16 pounds can be a lot to carry around for a few hours so I got a stroller and she loves it and it keeps my hands free and holds all the goodies I get. Most of the time we only use it at pet expos but I have used it when we went out of town a few times but I have never gotten made fun of for it people smile and say that's neat and pet Callie. Personally I wouldn't care much if someone said anything any way its my dog and my business and keeps her from getting stepped on and overwhelmed. I will always do what I feel is best for Callie and if other people don't like it that's there problem not mine. My dad made fun of it at first but saw how happy Callie would get when she would see her stroller come out and then try to climb herself into it if we didn't pick her up and put her in there fast enough (and Callie had her grandpa wrapped around her paw) and now he likes to steal it from me to push Callie around and its pink! My mom and dad also rescued a yorkie who is slightly scared of other dogs so he likes to sit toward the back behind Callie and is much better then if he where on the ground shaking to death. I got a slightly larger then average stroller sense Callie is 16 pounds and it was around 60 bucks on ebay and it holds Callie and my moms 16 pound rescue.
