Ownpets Pet Sling Carrier, Fits 15 to 25lbs Extra-Large Dog/Cat Sling Carrier Reversible and Hands-Free Dog Bag with Adjustable Strap and Pocket Shoulder Pad for Outdoor Travel Hiking

My dog is a little over 25lb and this is perfect. I’ve been having trouble replacing an old smaller one because of her size. She’s anxious so this is helpful to have her close when there’s thunderstorms, upset tummy, or what have you. See sleeping pup pictured here. No complaints, bag is adjustable and the cushion on the strap is nice.

I carry my dachshund in and out of the apartment to potty in a bag in order to take care of his back (as there’s a flight & a half of stairs we have to use & his legs are super-short). I’ve found that the usual inserts for pet bags are way too short for him, with his longer body, so I made him one out of stiff cardboard & duct tape so he has support from head to tail. However, this made our previous bag too “shallow” because the support board is wider and spreads out the bag, so the sides are shorter and barely secured my little guy inside because it wouldn’t fully zip up. It wasn’t going to work so I went on the hunt to find one with more room.This bag is SO much better! It’s large enough to incorporate my little guy and his support board, yet not so deep that the bag swallows him and he can’t see out. Having the open drawstring top makes it much easier to put him in and take him out (instead of the previous bag’s zipper) plus it provides ventilation. And I like how the material is water resistant—it also doesn’t pick up tons of grass/debris when I set it on the ground for my little guy to get in/out. The only part I would change is that the big buckle on the strap hits me right on the neck, but I’m working on that.The one thing I recommend for ANY bag: make sure your bottom insert is long enough to support your pet’s *entire* body, not just their butt. Standing on those little surfboard inserts mean that they’re trying to balance once you pick up the bag when they’re inside; and their spine doesn’t get the support it needs to stay in a straight line. If they sit, it might be ok but if your pet is standing, it’s better for them to have a longer insert that is under all four feet at the same time. That way their hind (or front) end isn’t dangling off the board and hanging in the air.

We have an older chihuahua mix who sometimes has mobility issues, especially after long walks. We have a stroller for her which is great on sidewalks, and we have a backpack for her for hiking, but we needed something for taking her around in the city when we are in inclement weather or a stroller is just too cumbersome or inappropriate to take into a store. We are super happy with this purchase. She fits really well and is very steady in the sling. The shoulder strap is padded and there are even zipped compartments for carrying dog bags, etc. it does get heavy after a while but so would anything else that you had to carry in your shoulder that was 20lbs. That has nothing to do with the sling. We used this sling taking her around on vacation with snow on the ground and also to let us take a longer walk with our other dogs who were on leashes and could go further and faster than if she was just on a leash with them as well. We didn’t think we could find this kind of solution for a dog her size but so far we are very happy to recommend this sling.

I have a 13lb yorkie and the bottom support pad is way too small, so it provides little support for him. Will have to buy some sort of insert that actually fits to even be able to use this. However, that is my only complaint and once I find something that fits in the bottom better, this will work great. It appears to be well made and I like the netting and safety hook features. Just wish the bottom pad was large enough to cover the bottom of the sling. Overall, not a bad product and is very deep and large enough for dogs probably up to 20lbs. Just be aware you will have to buy another support pad for the bottom.

My dog loves me to carry her around in it. its roomy however i had to put a pillow in bottom for her comfort.

The description lies. The entire exterior of the bag is plastic. It is not broadcloth nor is it jersey as the photo image implies as does the “reversible” description.A. Plastic is too hot for a dog to be inside, especially in the summer.B. One can not reverse a hard plastic exterior to an interior and have it flexible.C. A dog inside a hard plastic ( reversed) interior would not be comfortable.D.) the padding is a small removable piece of cardboard with some cheap fabric and slight stuffing.I bought the most expensive (Amazon) sling option for a 15 lb dog. He fit inside but the net is not very secure. Also - if the dog jumps and is clipped with the enclosed clip - they’ll be hanging DANGLING from the cheap clip. I didn’t attach it for that very reason. Bottom cushion is also missing from 1.I wanted to like this. I really wanted to keep it. I even bought iron on patches to try to make it cuter, but you can’t iron onto plastic. Some may love it but should be informed that the bag is “ waterproof” because it’s plastic. Dogs don’t have sweat glands - could overhear leading to dehydration! Deceptive marketing.

Thanks you 😘

I was having trouble finding a carrier for my 20lb zuchon Yoshi. Found this and when it arrived, I noticed the strap was sewn on all wrong. It's not a matter of untwisting it or flipping it, it is just manufacturers incorrectly. Which makes it far from comfortable.Accompanying my XL pup sack, was this tiny black pad/cardboard which is certainly not to put inside as a bottom based on the size. The material I am unsure of still being cotton on any part. I was instructed by Amazon to contact manufacturers, which I did and we shall see what they do to remedy this.I still put my dog inside to make sure he would fit and he absolutely did, but I had to take his dog bed pillow and place it at the bottom or this would never be comfortable for him as I would be more confident in a normal messenger bag stability and structure. Kind of a let down overall. Let's see if they fix this.
