| Front Carrier for Small Yorkie? I'm trying to find a small front carrier for a small Yorkie. Logan weighs 3 lbs. We want to go hiking with him and think a front carrier will be safest and more comfortable for both us and Logan. But I can't find one small enough. Has anyone else found one anywhere? |

| This is the style we got for our little girl when she was too little go for walks. You can fit any small dog in it and they can look out the sides or if tall enough, over the top. http://www.petsmart.com/product/inde...ductId=2753861 |

| Puppylove. I have a brand new camaflauge carrier ideal for hiking. I bought it for Lilly and then had second thoughts due to color. I'd ideal for a boy. Lilly is 4 lbs. and she fits perfect in it. If you'd like I can send you some pictures. I paid $75 for it at a specialty shop in NJ. If you wanted it - just to find it a good home I'd sell it for $50 shipped in the US. Elaine |

| I also should tell you that it is enclosed so he won't fall out - yet he can see everything. I bought it because I do photography and need my hands free when I work but I just hate the color for a girl. I would have to check to see if it can be used as a front back pack. I know it's worn on your back but I think it may also be able to be worn on the front. It really is ideal for hiking - going to fairs etc. I just haven't gotten around to listing it. I have a couple of carriers I need to list. Elaine |

| Was that pertaining to my carrier? I paid $75 for it at a specialty dog shop in Smithville. It's quite nice and I think she'd be pleased with the $50 shipped once she had it and it's brand new - I think it still has the tags. I guess there may be cheaper - I don't know. Elaine |

| That's cute too. The only thing is if she has an active dog. If she's using it for hiking - I think she'd be better looking for one that closes completely so he does not fall out. I know only one of mine would actually sit in that as nice as that Yorkie. LOL. My others would be trying to climb out. Ha ha. Elaine |
