Review on OxGord Airline Approved Pet Carriers – Small Soft Sided Kennel for Dogs and Cats: 2016 Newly Designed Model in Onyx Black with Fleece Bed by Kimberly Sanders

I ordered this carrier to replace an existing carrier that I felt was too big for my Chihuahua. I ordered the black one, hoping it would be an unobtrusive bag if I need to take my dog on public transport or shopping malls. This is a medium sized Chihuahua weighing 2.2 kg. Pros: - It's very light itself - Comes with a comfortable washable padded bedding held in place by velcro at the bottom - Has various pockets to store your dog's leash, some treats, a portable bowl and a water bottle be able. It has an adjustable shoulder strap with shoulder pads. The other two straps are held by Velcro to lift the bag. Can be opened from both sides. The valve opens fully on one side and half on the other. Disadvantages: - Does not open fully from the top. The first time around I had a bit of trouble placing my dog as I had to push him into that 'dark tunnel' and he initially resisted - The two 'lifting' straps are not long enough to carry the bag as Shoulder bag to carry - Not as discreet as I would hope based on the photos in the description. The dog is seen at least half the time. In general, it works well as a pet carrier. It's comfortable to the touch, feels solid and holds its shape even when empty. Absolute recommendation for Chihuahua owners.
