to make a long story short some things have been going on between me and my hubby and i'm nearly at my wits end with his working schedule i haven't sat down and talked to him since... god maybe two weeks ago?! ANYWAY he is always on business trips.. so my mom thought it might be a good idea if barbie and i went to the shore with her for the week. i also think it'll be good for us to get away since barbies daddy will be gone all month anyway

here is the problem.. my mom is leaving TODAY at 4 so if i don't want to waste the gas to drive separate barbie and i must get to packing... barbie has 3 different carriers 2 are purse like and one is like a huge duffel bag! (keep in mind she has 2 loofas she can't walk a minute without! haha) my question is... you know those carries where the dogs legs hang through the bottom? are those safe? it would be awfully convenient if they did i was thinking about picking one up on our way. i'm SO scared to take barbie is her regular bag and have her jump out on the beach or something... she is NOTORIOUS for jumping out of her bags.... so are those other ones safe?!

Oh heck, what a problem!! I so wish I was you, going to the beach. My hubby was a traveler too, and it's so hard to get use to it. Good for you to find something enjoyable to do while he's away. I've read about other people using those carriers and they said that their dogs loved it. Have fun!

Your carriers don't have a little leash type deal inside to hook a harness on? All mine do. That would be scary to have your little one jump out.

Mmhmm! All of mine have a little leash inside to hook the dog in. Have you tried one of those? My Chi is notorious for jumping out of her bag, but with that, she can't

I agree my friend had a carrier for her Pomeranian and it didn't have the leash hook, and it jumped out and broke its leg.
