| Durable stroller for camping expeditions ~ Recommendations? I'm currently evaluating strollers for Bella. I've poured through the previous posts on this site and agree that a frame is important so the Bella has something to lean on when she's looking out. I've determined that I probably need a jogging stroller to handle the grassy and gravel areas we encounter when camping. I'm looking for a stroller that is not too large since Bella is only 5lbs but one that will withstand the boys taking her on trails and fishing. I would have to pack the stroller in the RV as well. I'm also confused as to whether Bella needs to be able to see out more or if she should feel protected. Some strollers have a lot of mesh in the front so the dog can lay down and see out. On other strollers the dog is almost hidden when lying down. Do the dogs have a preference for viewing? I found this stroller on eBay but it doesn't have a the mesh window in the back...not sure if this would inhibit air flow? The wheels look promising however.

| I have the PetZip one in the middle & my boys absolutely love it! If you're looking for something durable, this is definitely the stroller for you. It's pretty much the all-terrain stroller for dogs. lol

| I'm looking for a stroller, too and I've looked at all the ones you've posted. I can't decide! I did hear that the Petzip monogram (one in the middle) is going to be out in Black & White in March. I don't know if it's true so I emailed Petzip to see. If I get one I may get it if it does come out in black & white |

| I would totally go for the Petzip if it was in black and white. The tan is just too light for me, otherwise I love the stroller. I'm leaning heavily towards the eBay off-road stroller. It's got 12" tires which from what I read of the reviews, are great for mud and rocks. Here's another site that carries it... Dog Strollers And you can order it in black plaid which should look like this... http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/bjnaf4/Pet_stroller.jpg since it's possibly the same brand.

| I will. I've emailed Petzip before and they were quick to respond so I hope I find out something this week. |
