Woofing Wednesday Wants Your Opinion

by Carrie Boyko, CEB

Let's gather a bit of input today:

Does your dog have a stroller?

Would you walk your dog in a stroller? If so, what circumstances would compel you to make this decision?

What features would you look for, if shopping for a stroller?

Thanks for your thoughts and comments. Feel free to get into the conversation on my Facebook page as well. Rather use Twitter? No problem: I'm here.

Michelle Spayde said...: 1. No stroller
2. I might use one down the road when I either want to be able to take longer walks and/or my dog's bi-lateral luxating patellas become surgical.
3. It probaby doesn't exist, but it would be fantastic to have a stroller that folds up and is easily carried on a walk until you need/want it. In reality, safety and ease of use would be my main selling points. A seat/harness belt would be a must.

If you haven't aready guessed, I know absolutely nothing about strollers!; May 18, 2011 at 12:26 AM

Lori @ According to Gus said...: We have a stroller that we use after Gus has been walked so Mitch and I can run. WE love it! We posted a review of our stroller here . We highly recommend Solvit's Houndabout!; May 18, 2011 at 10:23 AM

Bailey Be Good! said...: No stroller. Mommy's never used a doggie stroller, but our neighbor has! There is NO WAY I am getting my 60lb self in a doggie stroller... even if my mommy gave it a LITTLE bit of thought. It just ain't happenin'.

Happy Wednesday woofs & hugs,

Anonymous said...: I don't have a stroller and don't think I would use one. Chester and Gretel like to run with me so I wouldn't need one for that. However you can get away with getting your dog into stores most of the time if it is in a stroller (like a sealed, kennel-like stroller.

Something I have thought of getting is a TRAILER so I can tow the dogs behind my bike to the dog park.; May 19, 2011 at 1:17 AM
