YT Addict | Stroller??? Do y'all that have a stroller for your dogs love it? And do you get a lot of use out of it? I have been thinking about buying one to use for my girls but I am not sure whether I would get a lot of use out of it. And also did anyone give you a hard time about getting one for your dog? Like I said I have been looking at purchasing one but my fiancee has been giving me a lot of trouble about it lol

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I love mine. I get a lot of use out of it. I walk my three and take the stroller with. When they get tired I out them in it and continue my walk. I'm sure some people think it's weird but who cares it works well for us.

| I bought the pet gear one for $50 on ebay. I've used it about 5 times since August (outlet shopping twice, mall, and 2 pet store events). I bought it specifically to go to the outlets, it would have bern hard to take her without it. My grandmom thought it was a bit silly, but now she really thinks it's very useful. |

| I bought our stroller last spring when we made a trip to Florida! It was great when we were in areas with lots of people! I didn't have to worry about her getting stepped on & she loved being able to look around as we walked! I also used it when I did the abreast Cancer walk! I took Hope with me all dressed in pink & had people stopping me asking where I got it! My son in law teases me a lot but hey....she's a Spoiled Princess & I want to keep her safe! |

| I recently bought the 'gen7 regal pet stroller' and love it! I got the one that is mint green with black dots and trim. It is the 3 wheel, and the front wheel locks when you are on uneven ground, for more control. It has nice vision for the dog in even a laying position, with a screened window in back so they can keep an eye on me as well. The bottom storage under the stroller has a zipper, so everything is contained. Check it out, and the price is not bad. This 'regal' however is a bit smaller, which I like and is only up to a 25# dog. Perfect for me. They do have a line for more weight. Just go into their site and it has vidios to explain each line. I searched for this particular model until I found the best price. It will range from $97.- $120. So it's worth the look. I think I got mine from Wayfair. I also wanted one that had the metal bar in front for more protection. Some don't have that feature. I used to have the pink 'happy trails' with 4 wheels. After I got it I did wish I had gotten the 3 wheel, and something smaller. My DH threw it away when we moved! I was sooo angry with him! But, now I do have one I would have preferred, and he isn't so happy because he never wanted me to have one in the first place!! Ahhh too bad! |

| I love mine and I use it all the time! And yes I get made fun of by my DH but I don't care. Haha. I actually started a thread on strollers. I'll try to find it and post it for you. Trust me, you will love it!

| I love my stroller... yes I got made a lot of fun about getting this stroller. We went to the greek festival yesterday and my dh pushed the stroller with the two yorkies!!! So much for being made fun of!!!! I would get the best you can afford... some of the less expensive ones are junk. I like the 3-wheel ones the best. someone said they have the gen7-- that is a nice one. I have the dogger but it is really hard to find anymore and one of my friends has had some issues with the wheel.

YT Addict | Thanks y'all for all the advice. I am actually going to be ordering one later on tonight. I really like the ones with the reversible handles. My fiancee is still giving me a hard tim, but i don't think it will be to long before he will be pushing them around in it. Guess we will have to see

| I have a stroller that I purchased at Trade Days in Canton TX. I have enjoyed it so much that I have asked for a nicer stroller from SantaPaws. Ours has been used on vacations,back at Trade Days, in my house when I need to keep an eye on a pup, at playdates and a large dog show in Houston. |

| I have two (identical) strollers. I use them quite a bit. I got sick of having the one stroller at home when I was out & needed it, so I bought a second. Now I have one in my car trunk at all times, and one at home. I have the petgear special edition in sage.

| This kind of gets me -- i am a jogger (not necessarily fast) so want the Pet Gear NV and Amazon has the best price, but get this, the rose/pinkish color one is $46 less than the skyline blueish/green one that is identical. I want the skyline one, but can't figure out why the pink one is so much less expensive $193 rose $239 skyline

| I'll probably break down and get the rose one. Cali does look good in pink and red and for $46 I will even wear pink running shorts LOL
