| Question about which carrier to buy... OK, I am in the market for a carrier. It has to be a purse type carrier and I want to know what you all think is best and which one you cannot live without... I know that Kathryn loves Shana HOBO, so what else... |

| It all depends on what you want to do with it..... Is it just to carry your dog in and look super fab doing so? or do you want it to look like a purse so you can get away with taking it in to public places undercover... and have nobody notice?? I also have a gap bag, but I have been "busted" plenty of times with it.... It looks VERY MUCH like a purse... like a youthfull messenger bag grunge fun kinda bag.... but I still get nailed.... Its not high fashion, and it does not look like designer hand bag.... Two reasons why my HoBo is a total success!!!! people ohhh and ahhh and not at the dog inside! lol Petsmart has a few that are trying really hard to go in the designer bad direction... but they still look way too much like dog carriers to pass for anything but dog carriers.... I think??? that and everyone has beed to pet smart and seen them, so they know what they look like! and the odds that you bought one for your wallett and makeup are pretty slim! Know what I mean???

| Black New York Dog Hobo carrier... I just got this carrier and I've used it twice. I love it! I can't wait to take a picture of Loki in it. Most importantly - he seems to like it http://www.handsnpaws.com/c=2qxdb7Z6...WPNYDCARR3216K

| I have a celltei carrier and although it is great (I've snuck my dogs around in it everywhere, including into my office building everyday) it's not exactly a cute little handbag. It's big and bulky and feels like I'm carrying a small duffle bag. SOOO, I've been looking for a new carrier as well.... these are some of the bags I've been looking at http://trixieandpeanut.com/travel/136837.html http://trixieandpeanut.com/travel/127412.html http://tinkerbellscloset.com/Browse_...Carrier-_Black wwww.glamourdog.com has lots of carriers too There are sooo many to choose from, I can't decide. Some bags just seem to scream "I have a dog in here!" while others are so much more discreet. Bags with panels that come down over the mesh sides are probably more discreet. Darker colors seem to hide mesh panels better than brighter, lighter colors do. Let us know what you decide on - maybe it'll help me decide!
