| What do you all think? I always wanted a stroller for Peanut, but never really found any cool ones. I wanted the 4 wheel one bc I think it looks more like a "real stroller" What do you all think about the camo...? I think Peanut would look super metro in this!! Does anyone have strollers? Do you have the 4 wheel or 3 wheel? Which one is better? Where can you get away with taking them in the stoller??

| I like the idea of the stroller for busy fairs and events where they can get stepped on. It would also be good to toss a blanket over and go into the mall I usually carry my two in their Kwigy Bo, but they can get pretty heavy... so a stroller would be nice for longer walks. I know my two love walking, but they do get tired when we spend the entire day downtown shopping, so it would be convenient to toss them in a stroller after they are tired. A stroller would also be nice to hold bags, my purse and drinks. I have to say, I'm envious of the moms that have those huge strollers that can carry everything. It definitely looks convenient!

I wish Peanut would go in bags, but that is a lost cause. I never put him in one when he was a puppy I would just carry him, so he was never use to it. Now he wont touch one with a 10ft pole LoL

| Actually I got the stroller for summertime when the pavement and sidewalks are hot. It also keeps me from being nervous about big dogs and kids running towards her. Of course she thinks she would rather walk until she feels how hot the pavement is. |

| Do you ever take Gracie in her stroller where she is not "allowed"?

| I think if you got a human looking dog stroller, you would be able to take him almost everywhere (except bars Couv and Khloe have been in bars before... lol). Otherwise, I think you could pretty much go anywhere especially if he's quiet and you have a blanket covering him. I've tried to convince DH of a stroller, but he's not into it

| I had an older dog once that had trouble walking and I bought a baby stroller at a garage sale, she stayed put but if yours does not you would have to figure a way to harness them in, but paid hardly anything. also check on craigs list and used clothing and baby stores, if you want to save money. It will be interesting if someone says, ohhhhh let me see your baby! She adapted to it really well, but my other dog was freaked out having to walk next to a stroller, it turned allot of heads in the neighborhood with people thinking I suddenly got a baby

That is funny DH loves the idea of Pnut's stroller LoL Plus Pnut having grade 4 LP and having surgery this year I think it will benefit us!

| Yes, definitely! That will be great to be able to get him out without him having to walk after his surgery. When is he having his surgery?

That stroller that I like is only 45$ so that is not that bad, I am like a germ nut so I wouldn't want to get a used one

| In June/July I'm so nervous for him, but he really needs it- His limp is getting pretty bad, it has calmed down a little bc it isn't as cold, but it is still sad to see.

Poor guy, hopefully the surgery makes everything better... The stroller will be nice so he can get out and enjoy the sunshine while his running/walking is restricted.

| No. I just take her to outdoor events and parks in the nice weather. I have taken her in stores in her little bag that I carry for her but we don't really have signs around here about dogs. It's not really an issue because little dogs are just about unheard of here. When I go to the mall I leave her home because I don't want to have to worry about her having to go out. If I want to do some serious shopping she does not want to be around! |
