We purchased two of these to take our cats on a cross country flight.... we didn't take the flight yet but we've used the carriers a lot already. Our cats are fully grown adult females and probably weigh about 13 pounds each, and they fit just fine in these carriers. The rolling feature is great and the cats don't seem to mind the vibration of the sidewalk. The backpack feature is nice too, but I think the cats felt a little seasick from it because they started to meow a lot. They are spoiled indoor house cats but they are adapting well to their walks through the city in their new carriers. Overall, this is a well designed product, but there is an odd feature. When you lay the carrier down, the cat is laying on the thin, relatively unpadded back section and the handle bar goes right down the middle. So, the cat is pretty much laying on the handle bar and they were a little uncomfortable. We will definitely get some extra padding for the long flight.
My little Yorkie mix and I just returned from vacation...first by car-great car seat...second by plane-super mode of transportation...third by boat - perfect...fourth hiking-worked like a champ. We both loved all four possibilities this carrier provides. I did make an additional padding for the bottom just for her comfort.....or probably as a dog lover for my need to comfort her. It would probably be a struggle for a 12 to 15 lb dog to fit in this carrier....mine is 7.5 pounds.
I used this to take my Yorkie on her first ever airplane trip. It is light weight yet sturdy. The handle made it easy to maneuver in the airport. It slid easily under the seat (US Air). I would recommend it highly to anybody with a small pet. I plan on using it as a car carrier also as it has straps in the back that you can loop the seatbelt thru.
I Absolutely Love This Carrier... Get Compliments Everywhere I Go... Perfect Size For My 11 Pound Kitty... I Can Carry It On My Shoulder, Use It Like A Backpack Or Use The Extended Handle And Pull It Behind Me... Highly Recommended...You Will NOT Be Disappointed...
Pet carrier is well built but I don't see how a 15 pound dog would fit. My 8 pound Chihuahua is fairly comfortable but he could not be much bigger. My husband went on line to the manufacturer's web site to get assembling instructions. There are some strange things to be put together. We put his blanket in it and put his bed away so he would get used to the size and smell before he travels in it. He will go in by himself when he can't find a lap!
I love this backpack. My cat comes everywhere with us and I don't feel like I am leaving him out since the dog is always with us. Had one for years and just wanted a new color so I purchased a new one. It is totally secure, just make sure the zippers are all the way down to one side or another because one time I met the zippers at the top and my cat was able to separate the two zippers. All the way down to one side or another and that has never happened. Have been using these for 6+ years. Totally recommend.
My Mini Doxie freaked out when I put her in this kennel. It is not as wide as I expected & I think she felt cramped. Also if you use it to pull behind you the dog is very tipped or angled backwards. Rubi kept scratching & whining to get out so finally I just took her out & left the product with the family member whose house I had had it delivered to & flew out of town WITHOUT it. Kind of a waste of money for me. The item sounded better on paper than it worked out for me. Also the product needs to be Aired out for several days after opening the box as it does not smell very good coming out of the package,
I ordered one in pink for my cat. The color is fun and nice. My cat pits nicely in this carrier and I no longer have shoulder pain carrying him around.
I own a similar model -- now 7 years old. This one is of great quality and very attractive, especially for air travel. I'll be proud to wheel my dog anywhere. I do think for air travel, a heavy pad to lie on when the carrier is under the seat in front of me will be necessary. The telescoping handle is exposed to the inside of the carrier with only dernier covering it. I do not find this to be a serious flaw and knew about it from a previous review before purchase.
Good quality, nice looking but can't figure out tethers. Used as a carseat.left flap open and dog was able to get out onto seat.
