Well made and convenient dog carrier
This is the perfect dog bag for airplane and car rides. I like all the extra pockets for treats and poo bags. I like the different opening options on the top. It’s sturdy and fits under plane seat then I can strap it in the car. Great price too. My dog is 12 pounds, a little maltipoo. It’s a perfect size for him.
Amazon Customer –
Airline and puppy approved
Super spacious. Airline approved! My baby was comfortable and safe inside this carrier and I was very happy with my purchase. I even bought an extra one just in case they discontinued this bag. Great quality. I like that it came with pockets. The zippers open smooth.

Excellent travel crate!
This was an excellent solution for traveling with our new puppy. I would say it could accommodate a pet up to 10-15 pounds. The quality is great. It was roomy enough for him to be comfortable, and there’s extra room on top because of the expandable mesh area. It folds up nicely for storage, although it does not come with it’s own storage bag. (I happened to have a bag that it fits into when folded up.) I had a set of foldable wheels that I attached the crate to and I could wheel the entire unit through the airport, effortlessly. It also fit under the seat in front of me on the plane with the wheels attached! I just collapsed the handle of the wheels. (*Unit does not come with wheels…) It is a perfect size for flying with Frontier and Allegiant.

Great carrier
This was exactly what I wanted for my 8 pound chihuahua/yorkie. I put it close to the couch in the living room and opened the top and a side. If she got a treat it went into the carrier. She had no problem adjusting. I also carried her around in it a bit. Plenty of room and I added a blanket. This carrier is made very well and also well priced. Lots of openings for my pup to see out.

Very nice design but small end entry and awkward trolley sleeve. Allegient compliant, BUTā¦
I really like the design of this carrier for allegiant airlines size requirements. I enjoy that the top expands so that the dog can turn around in the bag and pass the turnaround test if the check-in people make you do that. I have had them make me do that onceā¦I have a 22 inch four wheel rolling, hard side, carry-on bag, and I can set this bag on top using the trolley sleeve, but itās a little awkward and you really need to use the top straps to provide leverage by putting them over the handle on the rolling bag or you need to loop the long strap around the handle of the rolling bag to prevent it from tipping with the dog inside it. You will see what I mean when you start to use it. I do like the very firm base inside the bag.REMEMBER THAT IF YOU ARE TAKING A PET CARRIER ON A PLANE YOU STILL ONLY GET TWO CARRY ON BAGS (ONE IN THE OVERHEAD AND A SMALLER ONE UNDER THE SEAT) THIS IS A USA FEDERAL THING, NOT AN AIRLINE THING. SO THE BAG COUNTS AS ONE OF THE TWO EVEN THOUGH YOU PAID A PREMIUM TO TAKE IT ON. PREPARE TO CONSOLIDATE OR CHECK THE EXTRA BAG.Most airlines let you count it as your personal item because it goes under the seat, but you better check.Normally I want my dogs to go in and out the side of the bag. The end of the rectangle side that will face you when you are in the airplane (like they are going in and out of a dog kennel) but this bag has a really small panel on that side to let the dog in and out. I donāt really like that about it. I would prefer that that were a bigger panel, but I can see why it isnāt because the bag has metal reinforcement on the sides and I donāt think itās possible to make that panel bigger. So, I have to put my dog in the top, which is OK,especially with the expanding top.The bag that I use on bigger planes does not have a top entry (sturdibag).My middle sized Boston terrier is about 15 pounds and she is kind of long but she fits in the bag just fine and she can stand up (without lifting her head completely) turn around and lay down comfortably. Under the seat with the top popped down, she can turn around if she crouches and scootsā¦ but I pull her out from under the seat and check on her frequently so she can turn around and stretch if she wants. My 19 lb Boston doesnāt fit well enough for comfort. She can fit in the bag and turn around with the top popped up but she canāt stand up. She has to stay lying down or crouching. She would probably pass the check in people if they didnāt inspect her too closely, but I wouldnāt chance it. Plus it is not nice to herā¦ at all. My tiny 10 lb Boston is no problem. She can run loops in there.Someone wrote that they did not like the carrier because it did not fit under business/first class seats. That is a common problem with all business class seats. They are quite low to the ground, but typically they are not going to kick you out of business or the plane if your carrier fits their standard size requirements for the coach seats. They will just allow you to hold it in your lap or something until the plane takes off and then you could put it on the ground by your feet until landing time. (Been there and done that with the much bigger but more squishy sturdibag). Depends on the flight attendants of courseā¦. Yes, holding it in your lap is probably a big no no but what else are you going to do? You canāt put an animal in the overheadā¦ dogs have died that way. So as long as it meets the airline size requirements, I am sure they will work with you in first class. Plus you can hold babies in your lapā¦ and not pay for themā¦. Hmmmm.For Allegient, I highly recommend a middle seat or extra leg room seats. See my photos. The photo with the carrier in the middle seat is taken in the extra legroom seat section. The photo with my feet visible is taken in the extra (premium legroom) legroom seat section in the window seat and the seat where you canāt hardly see anything is a regular seat. You will have zero legroom if you sit in that seat with this carrier, Yet somehow it is still compliant. If you have to sit in a regular seat or you donāt pay extra, please choose a middle seat. You will be able to turn the carrier sideways as seen in the pictures and it will fit perfectly.

Great bag
Fit well for my allegiant flight flying coach. Dog was comfy and the bag is good quality. Fold ability is great and functions very well. Shoulder strap has a cushion for support if needed. My dog is 10 lb and I bought the 17x13x8 dimension bag and he was good for a 2 hr flight, plenty of space to lay with his legs spread
TC –
Great bag! Looking forward to traveling with my doggo!
PERFECT FOR MY 5lb Yorkie! He was so excited to sit in the bag. There is so much room and space for him to move around. I really like it. It will be great for bringing him on the plane and when he has to sit in the car safely. I am looking forward to our adventures. The color is great and really easy to fold down.

Perfection!
Best ever! Cookie the kitty had a great airplane ride. She is 12 pounds and fit comfortably. Zippers are easy to close and tight. The ability to reach in and pet or give a treat is great. The small compartments to hold treats/etc is wonderful!
