As keen caravaners we have always taken our wetie Hamish with us..He is now 13 years old he has become blind. Apart from his blindness he is as fit as a fiddle and deals with it amazingly well. We have found the perfect mode of trasport for him, it helps us to help him to still enjoy the hussle and bussle of a caravan site. It folds away and is easly transported in the caravan. Our westie is now so confident in his chariot. He is frequently photographed and we are always being asked where one could be purchased.So many peple have dogs that are healthy but just need a little help.We have found the perfect answer for us. Hope it helps others.

    We too have a stroller for our elderly beardied collie. No connection with company but as we really did struggle to find something suitable, thought for those with larger dogs, up to 35kg might be interested In Amazon and a search for Doggyhut. About £150.00
    but worth it to have pooch come out with you and no constraints on how far you can walk. Folds up for the car, handle comes off and all wheels can easily be removed if required with a quick release clip. German engineering at its best!!

    Dog walks, gets in when had enough and watches world go by enjoying the vast amount of attention she and the stroller get. It has an adaption to also fit on a bicycle. Flat bottom and three wheels, perfect.

    Would send a picture but do not know how!!
