| Front carrier? Hi everyone, New puppy owner here and I am a walker when the weather breaks. Usually do a 5 mile hike. I would LOVE to take my baby with me. Has anyone used those front packs? and what brand do you like? The one where their arms and legs stick out just don't look comfy but the other one didn't get good reviews. Thanks for all your help ! |

| I know what you're talking about. I was given one once but it was so cumbersome that I threw it away. It felt heavy and was hot to wear. I don't think Sophie was too comfortable in it either. I can't remember the brand but it didn't have leg holes.

| I have one made by Outward Hound. I think it is for dogs 5lbs or so. Buster liked it when I first got it when he was younger. I liked it as I could take him with me when I did the 5 mile walks. I think Maggie would like it but she is 6.5lbs, I don't remember what the weight limit is. It is hot in the summer time. At this time of year it is perfect.

| I had one and it was not designed well and hurt my back. Make sure you try it on before buying.

| I had one called a pet a pack. I had an older Yorkie who loved to come a long, she just sat in there and watched everything. It was like a backpack that went on your front, had straps that went around your waist and over your shoulders, was really nice & the dog loved it. |

KARIPETŪ :Measuring for proper fit by StubbyTails They have 13 sizes, including small extra long which fits Yorkies more comfortably, since it supports their back. And they do custom fit orders. Sheila | |
