Outward Hound PoochPouch Dog Front Carrier, Medium, Blue

Its okay

I bought this so that I could start socialising my Cockerpoo puppy before he had all his vaccinations. At 8 weeks old he loved going out in it and usually fell asleep after a few minutes. It was ideal for introducing him to different people and animals whilst keeping him from risk of infection. Now at 10 weeks of age he is not so happy to stay still for any length of time and I usually have to hold him still with one hand and have a chewy toy at the ready in the other hand! I also think that he will outgrow the carrier very soon. Because of this, the carrier has very limited use. The carrier is well made and strong and is standing up well to puppy's chewing. It has been useful for the purpose for which I bought it and for a toy breed would probably last longer.

Good bag but the zip pocket is ridiculous - it would barely hold a bus ticket let alone treats, toys etc. Had to buy another pouch to clip on for treats and other odd items that I like to carry.

Sadly this didn’t live up to our hopes. The balance just isn’t right when carrying the puppy. I bought a medium bag and pup is only 3.2 kg. The drawstring doesn’t hold and the bag tilts downwards when the puppy is in the bag. I feel as though he could fall out so I end up trying to hold the base of the bag to keep him in. Not ideal when walking my adult dog.I wouldn’t recommend this bag

I have bought several types of carriers for my dog to try, it seems this one works the best!

It was quite fiddly to put on but felt sturdy once I managed it. It is quite bulky, stiff and deep with the opening at the top, which unfortunately meant as a very petite female when I bent down to try to pick my 8 kg dog up I couldnt reach around the pouch and lift him up high enough to put him into it. If you are tall and broad then maybe it would be easier but sadly no good for me so returned it.

I bought this for my new puppy. Her little legs are not fit to walk the distance my older dog can, and I ended up carrying her which not ideal - she was getting quite heavy, if she was muddy I then had mud all over my jacket, it did not leave me hands free to clip the lead onto the other dog if needed.The carrier is absolutely perfect. She loves to go into it (will even ask for up) and is comfortable, safe and secure. I have worn it for walks over two hours duration with her popping in and out, and it has been quite comfortable for me.I am glad I went for the medium size as for my Cavalier King Charles at 10 weeks its perfect, but still has lots of room for growth. I wouldn't dream of putting her in it fully grown, but we wont be needing it then anyway.Puppy socialisation is so important, here your puppy can experience everything without overtiring their wee legs.

Was worried that this might not be big enough for my small dog - a Maltese. It is in fact quite roomy and quite sturdy.However, was not the most comfortable fit for me, I'm quite small. 5'3" and 7 Stone. It appeared to overpower me a bit and looked wrong. I think it would be a good piece of kit for someone taller and broader than me. Have returned it but only because of the fit not because there was any fault with the product.
