I'm sure some of you could, but not me. Kaji will jump out, even if off the ground and well... hang himself. (He's done it before with the KB) I can open the top window like this http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/att...en-soho-18.jpg It gives me the security I need, because Kaji can not jump out (he doesn't fit) but, it gives him the option to peek out if that's what he wants. Mostly he hides behind the mesh.

| For size reference, Kaji is 12-13 inches from floor to the top of his head, and 12 inches from base of neck to base of tail. If each baby was half his size, maybe smaller, yes I agree. It would fit two babies. But they would have to be really tiny. It's not that much bigger than a small Alex. I large Alex would be more comfortable though.

First off....I love love love this bag (and am also getting the silver.). Thanks for all of the pics! Kaji is A D O R A B L E!!! P, I almost learned my lesson the hard way with Sugar. We were on an airplane and I was napping. I sort of heard something that caused me to open my eyes. There was Sugar standing outside of her bag, sort of dragging it behind her and out from under the seat She has figured out the zipper I also let her stick her head out of the KB, but after that incident, I NEVER want her 5 foot off the ground and not tethered in. Ever again........

| In the above story, I neglected to point out that Sugar was tethered in. Can you IMAGINE if she wasn't???? She would have caused chaos running up and down the plane saying hello to everyone Susi, if you plan to travel with Kaji in this bag, please don't remove the tether Or at the very least, replace it with the tether from your KB bag ( a shoe repair place could do this for you I believe), if you will no longer be using the KB bag. I love the tether in the KB (even though my little escape artist chewed hers half off and I had to have it repaired )

| Another random thought, Susi, can you use the bottom pad from the KB Alex, along with the cooling mat, to give Kaji enough space plus sufficient padding? I'm sure you have already thought of this, since you sent me size comparison pics in both thickness and width. I'm excited to get my bag! I really hope I can use it for both pups, even if only around town for shorter duration trips. I have a large Alex that I can use for airline travel with both girls if I don't feel this bag is roomy enough for 3+ hours together.

| Solutions to the teather problem ok.. a possible solution to the "tether" problem that is easy. What I noticed is the tether has a hook clip on both ends. It is attached to a d ring in the bottom of the bag. I took the tether off and by unclipping and fed it thorough the d ring.. then you can clip BOTH hooks onto Kaji.. that would be shorter and stronger. Another solution would be to take the tether off... make another out of some shorter stronger fabric using the hooks. 3rd solution.. the bag has zipper pulls on both ends of the top.. they are also removable. You could use one of those in a pinch. PLEASE do not put kaji in without a tether... yes it is possible that the one time the bag is open he jumps and runs it is better to have him dragging a bag by his harness ..should slow him down lol You said you also like your kb.. so I wouldn't take that tether out yet. Oh.. do you have a coupler or tether you use for the car??

| Lisa, I think you'll love this bag! It has double windows. One for Sugar Baby, and one for Curri Bee. They can both enjoy the scenery together.

I just thought of another option. www.chokefree.com sells the pawrider tether separately as an additional add on, don't they? Those are NICE and sturdy

I'm sure you can come up with a perfect solution!! When you do, let me know! I will need that solution as well if I hope to jam 2 into my Soho Knowing Curri, she will have to be right on top of Sugar and block her view (regardless of which window Sugar choses )

| What a great review you did! And thank you! I am looking at one of these and I have the small KB. I was wanting to know how the two compared and you answered lots of my questions. Next, to measure Rosie and compare to Kaji's size. She is longer like Kaji too. I need to check her height because she weighs 6 pounds. I appreciate the great post.
