I used to take prince everywhere with me. He rode around in his doggie purse, undercover of course. He's quiet and he would just lay down in his carrier. Ricky on the other hand tries to climb out of the purse.
Now that I have 2, I've invested in a stroller. I can't take it into a grocery store or inside a restaurant but I do take it most other places I want to go, like the mall...or to public events. I've taken them to craft shows, parades and events downtown. I feel better about taking them in there because they have more room too. I always felt guilty leaving Prince in my purse too long. He tolerates it, but he'd rather not be in there.
I know some people on YT have dogs that love their purses and will try to climb into any purse they see because they know it means they are going out...and there are dogs that love their strollers as well. I am not that fortunate...but I think it's because I got both of my dogs as adults. You are fortunate enough to have a young puppy that you can train. If your dog likes going on outings and knows that she has to get in her purse or stroller to go out, she will probably come to love it. Neither of my dogs were socialized on outings so it's more stressful than it is fun to go out. They are the only dogs I've owned that don't get excited to go on car rides!! LOL!!
