| Teaching Shelby to stay quietly in a purse was the best thing I ever did. She spends most of the day sitting in my lap, so if we go to someone's house...she is in the purse, in my lap. She can and does go almost everywhere with me. She is happy to be with me and I am happy to have her. |

| The dog stroller was probably one of my best purchases. It's much easier to take Cujo to the mall or wherever than sticking him in a bag, and less people tend to notice him, as it looks so much like a baby stroller. This is the stroller we got: http://www.dog.com/ItemDetail.aspx?ItemNo=330113%20BLU I believe it also comes in pink for the little girls! |

| Some of my dogs like the bags, other's don't. Emma absolutely hates it and is a nervous wreck, but McKenzie will be really good and just quietly lay down and relax, so it all depends. Usually they always want to walk, but if I'm out shopping and worry about them being stepped on, ect -- we use the bags. I never take them places they shouldn't be, but a lot of outlet malls are pet friendly so I will take along one of my babies usually. Sometimes I HAVE to run in somewhere non pet friendly when I have one of my dogs with me, so I leave a carrier in the car just in case although I don't make a habit of this. |

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | I have two carriers for my babies, although I really haven't ever even used them Usually when we go somewhere, hubby just carries Stedman and I carry Tatum. They WILL stay in them if I put them in there though (I've tried it at home just to see) and they don't mind it at all - I just don't really use them all that much.

| I use doggy purses a lot. Wobie doesn't mind being in them at all. I usually keep one out on the floor for him to crawl into if he doesn't want to be in his kennel. It bothers me putting him in one, because it seems so cramped, but its easier and safer than holding him when we're shopping or running errands. I always just fasten him in and keep the top open so he can stand up and look at the world. I'm getting a doggy stroller soon, so it will make life even easier.

| I have a stroller and a bag for Brewser, and plenty of clothes. They aren't accessories-they are all practical items It can get very cold here-she needs her clothes to keep her warm. Her stroller and her bag are great for keeping her safe from too many people or other dogs. And I too take Brewser plenty of places she shouldn't go and she lays in her bag and doesn't make a sound. Very rarely does anyone ever notice. My brothers chi does not travel well at all unless she is in hers(although hers is got more of a solid structure-kind of like a crate but looks like a bag)...its her safe place! |

| Daisy loves her purse and gets very excited when we take it out. She hops right into it. We only use it taking her into places where they might not allow her and when we take her to the vet so she is not in contact with other animals in the waiting area. If you leave her purse open on the floor she will even sleep in it.

| My Chi, Bella is two and about 4.5lbs and she loves her purse. I took her to a cheer leading competition this weekend. It was the first time she went somewhere where she wasnt allowed. She did really well. For the most part, I use her purse when I am taking her and my 14 lb yorkie somewhere, so I only have to control one on a leash. I will also use it when it is rainy or snowy so her feet dont get yucky on the way to the car. |

| I was the type of person that thought I would NEVER carry my dog in a bag. But in the month that I have had Cooper, I have found them quite practical. He loves his bag and seems quite comfortable in there. Once he learns to walk on a leash, I'm sure I will use the bag less. But it is handy to have one for certain occasions. |
