I have the juicy carrier (which has a pocket) and one from New York Dog. The juicy carrier can get a little heavy. I still have carry a purse since I carry around so much junk.

Is it just waterproofness (is that a word?!) and size?

Hi! I am a coach lover (have WAY TOO MANY) and might be able to help you spot replica's. The Signature C design on the replica actually shows a open C and a closed C. So it will look like this "CO" where as an authentic has 2 "CC" facing each other. That is one way and a whole list of others but that is the most easiset to tell. Some replica makers on e-bay may be honest and share with you that they are not real. And Coach only makes them in select desings so not everyone coach carrier is auth. Hope that helps some!

i lovvvvvve coach also so when i was reading an us mag with a pic of jessica simpson with a coach dog carrier i had to have it...went directly to the coach store where i was told that their dog accessories lie carries and dog collars and bowls only come out for the christmas holidays.i believe it should start next month. you cant even pre order them. although im sure jessica can. my boy is 8 pounds now so depending on how big the bag is he may be too big...

I have a carrier I got at Petco, is nothing close to a coach bag but does the job. I wish I was able to afford one thou, they are so cute. I do carry my purse in addittion to the carrier cause I always carry so much junk and the carrier only has one pocket. I dont like that " puppy purse", it looks so uncomfortable for the pup.

My carrier has a pocket where you can put a little bit of personal stuff.

I do not have authentic ones just replicas. I think what makes them airline approved is the fact that they are closed in and they meet size requirements and have the waterproof lining. Thats about all I know for sure. Here are some photos:

I have one from three years ago - it's plaid. Last years was the signature with pink accents. They are coming out soon so check for them a lot - they go sooooo fast. One thing, they are very big...I'm hoping this year they make them a little smaller - maybe more like a purse carrier.

I bought the Juicy carrier a few months ago for Laila. She sits in it just fine, and I love having the compartment for my 'personal' things - however... the top is very frustrating and uncomfortable. It only has a zipper, and it is uncomfortable for her to poke her little head out w/out me holding or propping the flap. The zipper is tough too, so I don't like her head right next to it for fear she will cut herself. I have since decided to only by 'open top' carriers. They are more comfortable for her. JMO. For everyday use I think the open top is more suitable. At the mall... Laila is always wanting to poke out so people can see her and go 'ohhh and ahhh.'

I know, I bought the purse that the legs hang out. It is really cute but Mari doesn't like it and it's hard to get all four feet in those little holes!! Or at least it is for my little wiggle worm! Cathe

I fly with my yorkie I use a soft sided carrier. They aren't as strict as it sounds. In 6 months my flight with my dog went from $100. to $160. That was just from Jan to Sept. pretty bad huh? Then you consider the pet vet papers and it does get up there doesn't it?
