I never thought of myself as one that would use a dog stroller, but I have become a big fan. I use a dog stroller for two different reasons.
One, I have a 15 year old Bichon Frise (Sammy) with major back problems resulting in her inability to walk for any distance. Putting her in the stroller while I walk our other dog, Cookie, gives her the opportunity to be a part of the family, get some fresh air and sunshine. Once I started doing this on a regular basis, she seemed to become a happier little dog.
I also use a dog stroller for Cookie when I work at dog events. Cookie is my "assistant" at these shows and I have found the stroller to come in handy both when setting up and breaking down our booth because I can roll her around in it and not worry about her leash getting tangled as we set up, as well as throughout the day to give her a break from the activity.
And I'm sure everyone has seen dog strollers while shopping. While I haven't done this (yet), it is a great way to take your little one with you when you go to the mall.
We have two models that have been popular at Furry Travelers: The PetZip 3 in 1 Stroller, and the Pet Stroller XL. The images below are of the 3 in 1 Stroller (including Cookie at a trade show in Atlanta).
This 3-Way Stoller covers all your needs. Along with it being a dog stroller, it conveniently converts into a car seat as well as a carrier. Holds up to 30 pounds. Available in Red or Navy Blue.
The Pet Stroller XL is another great stroller and one I have used for almost 2 years now. This stroller has really worked hard for me and has held up just great! It also holds up to 30 pounds and it is long enough and tall enough to hold more than one dog, or taller dogs. It easily collapses to fit into your trunk. The colors are great, too. Tangerine and Lime.
So which stroller is for you? If you don't need the car seat, my vote is for the Pet Stroller XL. If you like the 3 in 1 concept, you can't go wrong there, either.
