How often and where do you use your dog stroller? I plan to get one this week. Are PetSmart and Petco good options? |

Well I was in a pinch when I got mine so I bought mine from Petsmart. Somewhere down the road, I would prefer to buy online and get a bigger one - with a parent tray. As far as how much I use it, that comes and goes. I do use it about every other day only because I take Sam and Martin to the $ store. Those are short trips. But if we go to Kohls, Catos or a Trades Day then I use it quite a bit. When we go to Lowes or Home Depot, I just put them in the buggy with their pillow. |
We use ours for long walks ( she rides when tired) and flea markets etc. It's hit and miss, we got ours at Petsmart on clearance at the end of summer. I'm sure there are better made ones but for as often as we use it and it's just one dog it's fine. |
I use mine in the warmer months and maybe 2 times a week on average. They are great to have especially with 3. |
I don't ever use a dog stroller nor will I ever (unless when he's older and gets joint problems or something, that'd be my only reason) lol. My dog will walk when I walk -- no reason he can't. Besides, he would NEVER settle for sitting in a stroller, he much prefers to be a dog and sniff all the smells, etc. But I have seen them at Petsmart and I think they sell them on petedge.com |
We use it Almost everyday Mostly for my Chi He walk's Then when we get to the store's he Goes in the stroller. I Use it for Brownie when we go for walk's for when he get tired. I love mine & can't see Not having one. Oh i also use it for Fair's & Where there is alot of people So people can't grab & Bother them. |
Stroller Hi...we have a stroller and love it! We walk as much as they can on the leash and then hop into the stoller for me to finsh my long walk. They love to sit and ride. |
I dont have one but maybe one day. |
I got mine at petsmart- it serves its purpose. I usually use it in the mall- just drap a blanket over the top= i get a lot of "your baby" comments- if they only knew ;) In the future I would like one with a single front wheel. I have taken up running and Layla a) hates it and b) can't keep up. So i put her in the stroller but the two front wheels get jammed (??- not sure what is happening) when I run so i end up tilting the whole bugging on its back wheels which make the run harder than it should be :p So if all you want it for it the mall, flea markets that sorta thing- the petsmart will do you just fine! |
I got mine from Ebay - great deals there with many color, fabric and design options!!!! I don't use mine regularly at all - but I would never be without it!!! I use it when we go to meet-ups for when they get tired and want to be to themselves. I use it when the girls go with us for travel. It is the only safe way for them to be out shopping and many places that don't normally allow animals will allow them in a stroller. I also use it anytime I take both of them to the vet. They stay in the stroller until they go onto the table for an exam (and I don't bring home anymore germs than I went in with)!!!!!! |
Forgot We got ours from Ebay...nice and alot cheaper than petsmart or petco. |
She loves it! I just bought one at PetEdge on sale. I walk her until she gets tired and then she loves to go in the stroller. She was used to one because my friend has a larger one and she would ride in it with her dog. I just found out that Calleigh has 2 LP's, stage 3. It looks like we'll be using it even more now. :( So far we are still able to walk. It just worries me. Anyway, she loves her stroller. :) |
I have 2 strollers. The big one (PetGear AT3) I use everyday for exercise. Sometimes Daisy will walk alongside with her leash or ride. It is great in cold weather because I have a weather cover to keep out cold, wind, and rain. I tuck in a warmie (rice sock) to keep her cozy. I also have a smaller one (PetGear Sportster) that she uses in the house for a bed and when we travel because it fits in the car and good for stores. I have trouble getting Daisy to heel. She gets excited and pulls on her leash. We are working on that, but with the stroller, she walks right along next to it, her little legs going lickety-split!!! |
I bought mine in time for the Alexandia meetup and used it the entire weekend. I have used it since but am thinking about it with the cooler weather coming on as I want to walk further and they get tired so I wind up picking them up. 8-9 lbs gets heavy after awhile when you are walking. lol. |
I use mine a lot! They are great if you are taking more than one pupster to the vet. I also use mine for shopping trips...they go the mall and Hobby Lobby...any place that allows them! I have bought all of mine on Ebay. I have two right now. They are super reasonable .. $50 and that includes shipping. The quality is not the same as the ones you see in some stores, but honestly, I have used these strollers for about three years now. My oldest one is in good shape...it is just a bit faded so I bought a new one. I also bought another back up and have it stored away for the future. I have checked out many strollers for different things...the space inside was important to me as I often take 3 or 4 out at a time. I also do not like the ones that have a dip in the side...it is too much of a temptation when the thing is unzipped for a pup to jump out. The one I use is pretty deep. My kids are very comfortable in theirs. They actually go to sleep in it! It has storage underneath and a cup holder. Here is a link to the Ebay one I have: New Pink 09 Model Pet Dog Cat Stroller w/Rain Cover 3P - eBay (item 280267976521 end time Oct-11-09 16:39:05 PDT) Here are a couple of links with my pups in it: http://www.yorkiehavenrescue.com/dogshow09/tired_pups http://www.yorkiehavenrescue.com/dogshow09/pippi_armani |
