Puddles Pet Carrier Blog

As mentioned earlier this week, there are three types of practical pet carriers that are durable and made with high quality similar to higher priced designer pet carriers.  These include pet carriers that are worn on the front, back or in a sling position.  The Outward Hound Collection of practical petcarriers is a good place to start.

The front style carrier and the pet sling are gaining in popularity by the practical shopper. The Pet-A-Roo Pet Front Style Carrier slips on in seconds and then you place your pet in the kangaroo pouch.  Your pet will be comfortable and happy, and you’ll have the benefit of more cuddle time with your best pal. This style is designed to accommodate small dogs and cats and other small animals that are between 10 and 20 pounds.  For pets that are less than 10 pounds, the pocket bag front carrier allows you to securely fit your pet in the front pocket, allowing you to walk, hike, or shop. On the other hand, if you prefer a hammock type pouch instead, the Outward Hound Sling-Go Pet Sling would be your choice.  This baby style sling is designed specifically for smaller pets up to 20 pounds in weight and makes the practical shopper look very smart.

A new product on the market is the folding zippered casual carrier.  This will be discussed in a later blog.

Losing popularity is the back carrier backpack.  If interested in one of these the simple pocket bag back carrier that features an adjustable padded shoulder strap and a waist strap for extra stability and weight distribution is one of your choices.  It also has a reinforced padded bottom to securely hold your pet.
