No offense to anyone that has one! I just don't think it's right for my girl, that's all. She'll enjoy walking instead.

Agreed. The whole concept of pet stollers is just silly IMO.

Plus, my two love walking. And if were every a situation where I couldn't completely watch them, I just wouldn't take them.. plain and simple.

Wedding present??? Hmmm I think Bryan would be like, What the heck is that?? Plus that's 4 months away..I will have one before that, but thanks anyway.

In response to the dogs being dogs..I agree and I walk my babies every day but truly when you are going to a ball game trying to carry chairs, blankets, pop, puppy supplies and everything else, it sure would be nice to have my babies zipped up in the stroller until we get somewhere i can put everything down and then let them out....

I'm with ya girl.

I don't care what other folks think. I have up to 6 or 7 biewers to take out at a time, sometimes and the stroller is handy. It is too hot on their little feet to walk to far sometimes too.

I also use the stroller when we are at dog shows as well as an xpen.

I don't use Lacy's stroller to just walk around the neighborhood because of course she needs to and enjoys walking. But her stroller is so convienent when I go to the mall or to events where I'm going to have her with me all day. Carrying a dog around in a carrier or in my arms all day would get tiring and you can't walk your dogs around in most stores or at the mall (they need to be contained). Usually when I'm out shopping with her in her stroller I hear a lot of "oh my gosh I thought that was a baby in there!" or "Oh, that's so cute." I also get asked "Does she like it in there?", "where did you buy that?", "How much are they?", "Is that a stroller actually made for dogs?". I haven't had any rude or wierd comments. We get a lot of looks...I don't really take notice of them so I couldn't tell you if they laugh or think it's silly. I'm not ashamed to have my dog in a stroller because it's convenient and really, I think she's just pretty darn cute in there! A lot of people are surprised to see a dog in there and a lot of people haven't ever seen a dog in a stroller before. I went to the dog show in Houston all day today and took Lacy in her stroller, and a friend I was with also had her dogs in a stroller. We actually saw several dogs in strollers there so that was pretty cool

I have a stroller for my two Bichons and I have only had good responses to it. When someone looks closer and sees one or two cute little dogs inside, they are delighted and I have only had nice comments. I love the stroller because I can have both dogs outside, but safe in the stroller. Mine has a mesh cover that can be zipped closed to keep them inside and keeps anyone from touching them. I don't want strangers grabbing my dogs and don't want strange dogs rushing up to them. Strollers are great for walking with small dogs that might get tired. My Lacy has hip dysplasia and she gets tired easily. She can ride while Cosmo and I walk or both dogs can ride while I walk and get my exercise.

To me that is different. IF Diesel had HD then I would get him one too.
