I don't know how tall Chelsea was, I don't remember ever measuring her, but she was fairly proportional (maybe slightly longer than she was tall) and consistently weighed around 5lbs (5 1/2 lbs at her heaviest). She always layed down in the bag & stuck her nose up against a vent hole. Like I said, it's a great quality, leather bag and is the only one I ever used with her. If they made it in a larger size, I would order one in a heartbeat for ZoE. I can't speak to any other bag in the Cece Kent line, as the Nantucket is the only one I've had experience with, but I'd assume they are of the same or similiar quality. |
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! Do you still have the bag? Could you tell me how big the ventilation holes are? The reason why I'm asking is because I get to have a leather bag made next week, don't have access to physical touch any of these bags and I need to make sure it's perfect! I'm also pressured by my dh to order a second bag for my dil! I'm projecting that the dogs may way 6 pounds as adults, even though it's possible they will only be 4.5 pounds. |
please bump |
I'd love to know how the length of the straps too and then I think I'll be set!!!! :D so excited! (ventilation holes, not the mesh part and straps) |

Well, I went to my purse maker this afternoon and am sooo excited! Monday, I'll actually place my order as we go over all of the details and possibly Wed or Thursday it'll be in hand! I'm still not sure about the strap sizes but I picked out my leather/color and some of the hardware already. The original doesn't have a deep separate leather pocket for personal items, treats or things, so we are putting in one or possibly two, we'll see. This is a fun project! Anyway, if someone who has one could mention how long the straps are it would help, or maybe we'll just fit it to our own bodies ;) This gives us something to go by. |
It's about an 11inch drop, but if your having it custom made, I'd have it made to whatever drop is most comfortable for you. The holes are about a 3/4inch grommet....I really like this feature, because even when the bag is completely closed up, your dog is still getting air. Personally, I'd like one large outside pocket added to the backside of the bag. And if I was having it made (and you're going by the nantucket's dimensions), I'd choose to make the bag a little wider, so you could put a few extra pockets inside and putting things in them wouldn't take up space from your pup. I'd really like if under the front flaps there was a pocket too (instead of just decorative flaps). Again, personally, I don't think you can have too many pockets...think of wallet, (ipad?), glasses, keys, potty pads, treats, water bottle, leash, small comb/brush (cos their hair tends to get wrecked being in a bag). Can't wait to see this creation...bet it will be amazing! |
Oh, and what color are you getting it made in? |
Thank you so much! I was guessing the holes were a tad bit smaller and afraid to go any larger without knowing. Very very helpful! I'm with you about the pockets and I'm wondering now if perhaps I should go with the newer cecekent design or just augment this one. My dil wants this style so bad and my favorite is the other but I was thinking it was too much hardware to try and copy. I do like the ideas of the front pockets. http://www.hautepup.com/CeCe-Kent-Ra...ier_p_214.html I'm going with a black croc embossed cow leather ;) I love leather purses and I'd like something durable, won't scratch like the soft leathers and hold it's shape better. Also, I love wearing black year round so it's very practical. |
Glad I found this thread. I was talking about getting a purse carrier for mine just yesterday! Post pics when you get it! |
