SlowTon Pet Carrier, Doggie Cat Hand Free Sling Carry Dog Papoose Carrie Adjustable Padded Shoulder Strap Tote Bag with Front Pocket Safety Belt Travel (For Pets 5-12lbs,Grey)

I first accidentally ordered the MEDIUM in caramel biscuit colour instead of the SMALLEST size (take care when choosing the colour you want, as it can switch the sizes without your noticing)The shape of this dog pouch is actually not a good fit for my mini Dachshund puppy, due to his long body and short legs, so it cuts him in the neck unless I supported him from below. I got it replaced with the smallest one in the grey colour, but it also unfortunately cuts him in the neck. It's a pity as he was keen to be in it and it would have been so useful for little outings to the shops etc.The pouch would probably be perfect for a normal shaped puppy / small dogs, who sit more upright.AND it's really great quality, the fabric is a nice sturdy thickness without being bulky, yet it's still lightweight.The colours are classy in the flesh, I tried the butternut tan, the grey (which is fairly dark with an olive undertone and the navy colours, which all look good.The main benefit is how thick and comfy the over shoulder strap is, which doesn't twist like another puppy sling pouch I tried.Even though I had to return them, I do RECOMMEND this product and think is worth the fairly high price.

We've been looking for a suitable way to take our puppies out, as they have to be carried at the moment. Our puppies are Labradors and one weighs 4.8kg and one about 5.2kg.We saw these carriers and thought they looked comfortable and indeed they are.The shoulder strap is wide and very padded, which makes them sit well on your shoulder. The bag element has no structure inside - so no baseboard or stiffness in the sides. As others have done, we padded out the bottom to give some thickness and structure to the base for the puppy to sit on. In our case a folded washable puppy pad which would also help absorb any accidents whilst out.Getting the puppy inside can be a bit tricky, but if you lay the bag open on a table and then get the puppy to sit on it, you can then loop the shoulder strap over yourself and slowly raise off the table. You have to hold the sides as you take up the weight of the puppy as they will fidget a bit. You can then adjust their position in the bag; I preferred to have a higher front and lower back (against my body) so made sure he was sitting more towards me. This keeps them nice and safe and reduces the puppy wanting to leap out.There are two button & loop mechanisms, so you can adjust the opening on the bag in front and behind the puppy. These are quite attractive to puppies so you have to make sure they do not try to chew them, however once outside they are more interested in what is around them!There is a short strap with a clip which you attach to their collar or harness. Our puppies were wearing both and we used the harness to clip them in as this seemed a safe option and allowed the puppy more freedom to look around.There is a small unpadded zipped pocket which is attached to the shoulder strap. It's great for your phone, or poo bags etc. We chose the waterproof version - I did not spot it at first, as all the icons just seem to show colour choices, but check them all as some have slight differences which is how we spotted the waterproof one.When walking you have to find a comfortable position for the bag against your body to minimise the puppy being jiggled around by your legs. The puppy will also move a bit in the bag; the one I was carrying remained seated and quite forward whereas the one my partner was carrying ended up in a leaning back position. This annoyed him after a while so we had to reposition him - not easy when they are in the bag and wriggling!All in all I think these bags will work fine for us. They will soon be able to go out on a lead, but as they will tire quickly (and you should only walk them for 10 minutes initially) we will take the bags with us so we can carry them when needed thus allowing us to go further afield.

Picture shows first time I used it but I got the hang of it around third use. Puppy was very happy in it and it felt comfortable to wear. Lovely soft material and looks the part.

I bought this for my 9 week old puppy so that I could take him out when I walk my other dog. My puppy was only 9 weeks old so has not had the second inoccualtion so I'm having to ensure he is kept away from other dogs and from ground where other animals/pets have frequented. The carrier is quite comfortable and is well padded and the pouch at the front is a nice touch, I keep the treats in there which keeps the puppy focussed. I alternate the carrying with my wife so the adjustable strap is very useful however I do find it tricky to adjust as the strap is padded and quite awkward to feed through in my opinion. My puppy which is a Tibetan Terrier, weighed 3.9kgs at the time of buying this carrier, he sat quite awkwardly in it the first time, he then slumped down to a lying position with his head poking out the top. This was great, the second time he was far more interactive he stayed sitting however he did keep trying to get out, lifting both front legs out of the enclosed part of the carrier. ther are two buttons at the top of the carrier which I think are to keep your pet inside however this did not prevent my puppy from being a jack-in-the-box. There is a metal hoop to connect a lead from your dog to the puch which is also a good idea, however I did need to constantly hold my puppy underneath the carrier and also inside the carrier to prevent escapes! My puppy was not overly excited or restless he just kept lifting his legs out very easily.I think the carrier would be ideal for the stereotypical handbag pooch or dog that can sit very still for a period of time, however puppies are very unpredictable so will need to be held closely at all times. I feel that I would be unable to carry my puppy and walk my dog myself which was the idea of the carrier however it does mean more walks accompanied by the wife which is a bonus.

Hi there delighted with this product and communication from this small business, would highly recommend.

I bought this bag, and use it for my ESA dog every day. Within a month the zipper fell off the pocket, and then it ripped. Now I have a fabric flap where a sturdy pocket should be.

My wife was so excited to take the dog out when I got this.

Lite större än jag förväntat, min vovve väger 7,3 kg, 40 cm lång. Väskan passar bra för varma sommardagar. Handtaget är perfekt - mjuk för axlarna. Ingen lukt.

Mon teckel de 6 mois n’était pas très confortable dedans car pour sa colonne ce n’est pas adapté, il ne peut pas vraiment se poser, de plus la bandoulière est trop large et épaisse, quand il fait chaud ce n’est pas l’idéal

Excelente calidad, muy cómodo
