Serious Stroller Help Needed Please!!

[ItsyBitsy]

My vote would be for the last one (AT3). That's the one I wanted to get but due to finances, it's going to have to wait.

I did the research on the strollers, and the AT3 is the one with the biggest interior, so it'll be good if you plan on getting more dogs. 3 big wheels is also better than 4 little ones if you ever need to stroll it off the trails through a park.

I'm a firm believer to always buy the best you can afford so you won't have to upgrade later.

The AT3 is very heavy. It's really nice though! My friend has one. I think has real tires not plastic tires.

I have a Special Edition but I haven't used it yet. Both of mine (6 & 12 lbs) fit in it. It's nice! I don't plan on needing an all terrain stroller so I got the less expensive one.

I have the second one. The Jeep Wrangler. I love it!!!

I first had the pink Happy Trails but the wheels were too small when you pushed it on uneven payment it shook and stuff. Didn't like it at all.

Then I got the Jeep In Sandstone and its so much better, with bigger wheels.

That would be my vote! I am also getting the Jeep Playpen to match after Christmas!! Can't Wait!!

I am thinking about this stroller but not sure of the size...I have a convertible so my trunk is smaller than most. Is it bulky?

I'm a little confused about strollers, maybe you can help me. Why do you need a stroller? Dogs need excercise . . . shouldn't they be walking?

In most circumstances yes, my dogs prefer to walk. But I've taken my dogs on vacation and when you're in crowded areas a stroller can keep them safe, contained and discreet. Also, walking multiple dogs in a crowd is not easy. With just one dog, you could hold them or put them in a carrier. Some people on here have multiple dogs and it's easier to contain them all in a stroller. No one is suggesting you push your dog in a stroller around your neighborhood rather than walk him.

Strollers are great if you want to bring your dog to a street fair or the mall. In Toronto, we have Woofstock and it gets really crowded. For the times you don't want your dog to get stepped on, or if she's tired from walking, she can ride in the stroller for a break.

Also, strollers are great for elderly pets. If you go a for a long walk and your baby decides shes tired, she can ride in the stroller for a bit.

I was actually planning on getting a stroller for my kitties more than anything. My cats are indoor cats and I figured this way they can come on walks with Bitsy and me and get some fresh air,

I just wanted to add w/the Rubicon (3 wheel), the front wheel is stationary as it is a jogging stroller so it doesn't manuever perfectly... it takes a tiny bit of work.

Still though it is so nice and spacious.. I can fit all 4 furbabies in it

We have the Happy Trails pink and it holds all 3 of my girls (3, 5 and 8 lbs.) They have plenty of room in there. We prefer the 4 wheels as the 3 wheelers can tip over easier. We like the sturdiness of the 4 wheels. It is nice to be able to take them places when it is crowded and have them all in one spot safe and sound.
it does come in royal blue too.
Good luck in your search. I am sure any of them would be just fine.

Here is the one we got, it's wheels are bigger than the others and the price was right

I sooo love the first one...but I do not think DH would like pushing a pick one or having Mojo in a pink one..... Man thing you know.

I wonder why they only make it in PINK???? I think I will write the company...I mean, seriously!!

Kristin...may I ask...why you preferred the 4 wheels? It seems a lot of people do, but then I hear so many that love the bigger three wheel one.

I am looking for something that I can use anytime/anywhere.....basically, I really need to get one for the YT meet up...and we do so many swap meets, out door markets, camping, etc. It would be nice to have one that I could take and use anywhere we needed to.

GRANTED....my two love to walk and be out and about....I just need one for those times that one is needed.

I have a big SUV so I have room in the back...but I still want one that is easy to fold open and closed and easy to pack.

Thanks for all the ideas and help so far!!!

We choose the 4 wheel for stability and handling reasons mostly......I think the 3 wheel versus 4 wheel is more personal preference......they just drive and handle a little different.

It held the 2 girls (4 1/2 pds and 8 pds) and then our Silky best when he was little....now that he is full grown it is a tight fit.....but the issue is mostly that our little Magic does not prefer to be that close to anyone.....so with all 3 she gets very whiny and wants out. But if your 3 did not mind sitting/sleeping with each other....then there is room.

Yes.....we have our 3 and one that I am handling for my breeder with us right now. Our two males are both intact....and do not get along especially around the girls.....so we do not ride them together.

Once we got 3, we really do not take them all with us at one time...unless we are going to a show or traveling and then the boys (silkies) travel in their crates. Often at dog shows they do not allow strollers....so we can not normally use it to take the girls with us to shows....so we normally leave the yorkie girls home on show days.

For us life changed with every pup we added.....with Magic only she went everywhere with us....then we added Sailor and still took them out alot and when we were sewing and doing craft/trade shows - both girls went out with us all the time. But once we go Captain it is much harder to take all three....and then when Frankie came to our house in October and made four....things changed more.....and the dogs usually only get out with us for a car ride or to travel for the dog shows.
