Pet Gear Special Edition Pet Stroller for cats and dogs up to 45-pounds, Sage


LOVE this stroller!
I just bought this stroller for my puppy who will not walk more than a 1/4 mile without sitting down stubbornly! I took him for a five mile walk this morning! It was great! I let him alternate walking and riding. I left the mesh "window" unzipped so he could freely look out and give me a signal if he was ready to walk again by standing. (I attached his harness to the strap inside the stroller.) He was comfortable and happy. He now weighs 12 lbs but should get up toward 20 lbs and I find this stoller plenty adequate for him. I chose this over the AT3 version due to the cost and weight. I think I will be happier with this version. I believe this was the best stoller for the $$ out there after all my research.

After reading reviews, I was worried about the cupholders being too shallow. But my Camelback Podium water bottles fit snuggly in the cup holders which made it so they wouldn't fall out. There is plenty of storage. The little pocket on the side I put my...
Our girls love it !!
We ordered this stroller because our girls (MinPin and Chihuahua) are getting older and long walks are too much for them. This works out great because they walk a little way and then get in and ride. We were afraid they would not like the stroller right away, but were we wrong! They love it. It is plenty big enough for two small dogs. They beg to get in and sit there taking in all the scenery with big dog smiles! They even give the other dogs the na-na-na we've got it made look. It seems well made and sturdy enough for both of our dogs.
I Am A First Time Pet Stroller User,
and I am thankful that my aging and ailing little buddy (now deceased) was able to enjoy getting to ride about instead of walking too far and becoming overly tired. He weighed 21 pounds and I don't know how much more weight in the main cabin would have been tolerated as the stroller really shook about if he moved around and tipped backwards once when he sat all the way to the back and I wasn't holding on. There is a hook strap to tether your pet inside but I think it is too long and my dog was able to jump out and then get hung up. He had to be fully zippered in to prevent that, so it is nice to have both features depending on the temperment of your pet. My new rescue dog is only 11 pounds, and I can barely tell he is in there and he easily rides with just the tether. The poor fella is too timid to even think about jumping out.

I am 5'5" and the push bar seems a little low for an average height; when you press down as you walk, the front wheels will occasionally ride up...
