I got this stroller to make it easier to take our senior Pomeranian dog with us. She likes to walk, to a point, and then will get tired. At 13 pounds, she's not terribly heavy, but still is a bit heavy to carry for a long period of time. This stroller is perfect to take along to keep her comfortable throughout a long day out. There are safety clips for her harness inside, and when the sun is hot, the netted shade pulls down and zips securely to the frame. There is also a net \"window\" for her to look out in front if she chooses to lay down. The wheels turn smoothly and make steering the stroller a pleasure. The back wheels have brakes for locking them securely when you don't want the stroller to roll. This stroller also has a convenient drink holder for water for your dog, as well as a spot for your own drink. There is also a basket under the stroller that can hold dog food, treats, or anything else you might want to stash there. The dog basket portion can easily be lifted off the frame by lifting the Velcro fastener that holds it on, and used as a dog carrier or bed for your dog in the car. The frame folds easily when it is time to go home. This dog stroller is perfect for any small to medium size dog, and I recommend it!
