Hi,

We're looking for somethimg to carry our 4 month old puppy in when we go on walks. Particularly when we go away in our caravan and we might be walking for a couple of hours, obviously we would be letting the puppy out periodically to stretch his legs, sniff about and relive himself. Wondered if anyone had any recommendations or thoughts about what brands/ type to avoid. We'd like one that will be ok for him up to almost full grown. He's currently about 3.5kg and will be approx. 10kg fully grown. Also one that we can get from the UK, not China since we ideally need it in 3 weeks time to use.

Thanks.

I had a backpack for mine when he was a puppy, I thought it would be easier to carry. It had mesh panels for ventilation and for him to see out. It was made by a company called Outward Hound. My main issue was that it didn't have a rigid base so I don't think it was comfortable to sit in. Timber certainly wasn't impressed! So, we recommend checking what the support inside is like. I might still have it somewhere, if you don't find anything else let me know and I'll try and find it.
