I woulnd't use it for my dogs.
It's bad for their ribs having all of their weight being held in the middle section.
they have real dog purses..
and they're more comfortable and won't cause harm.
they're just like real purses only dogs can comfortably fit in them.
walmart sells them.

Why do you insist on this sorry but JUNK.
Why not get a cute collar and leash and let the dog walk as it was born to do.
My sister has a very small chihuahua he is almost 2 years old and only weighs 2 pounds 3 ounces and he does great with walking.
If Not get a purse made for dogs like what Wal-Marts sells.
You will find that by carrying her she will end up with poor muscle tole and possibly other health problems from not being able to get the exercises she needs. ( you may want to talk to your vet about this)

Don't get it. The dog will most likely hate, it'll be uncomfortable for the dog, and might hurt its ribs if you pick it up like that. And it won't like being carried around like a purse, it'll want to move around freely.

It's cute however, would you want to be suspended from your stomach all day w/your legs dangling? Maybe get a bag/purse big enough so your dog can actually sit or stand. That way she won't have the pressure on her tummy.

You know those Baby Bjorn things new moms get? They're like a carrier you can put the baby in on your chest. They make those for dogs, too. Look for something like that. I don't think your dog would be too happy being carried around by her clothes. But if you put her in a carrier next to you, she'd probably be a lot happier!

That depends partly on the size of your pet and his/her weight. The material should distribute the weight evenly enough.
Although I would suggest against it, it is entirely up to you. Also, if it is not used for long periods of time it should be OK.

Dogs prefer to walk. They aren't toys. If you want a toy you can carry around in a purse I suggest a doll or a stuffed animal.

NOOOOOO!!!! it looks really uncomfortable!!! if you want something to "carry" your little baby in, they make tote bags especially for little dogs. or try getting a "doggie stroller" they work great for those long walks you may want to take, but tire out little legs.

It would be OK for a very lightweight dog, but not for long term carrying. A carrier would be more comfy.

personally, i dont think that looks comfortable for a dog. my dogs have lifejackets that are similar to the doggy purse and they hate when i put them on them. i would not advise you to buy the doggy purse, ultimately that is your decision though
