How to Choose a Dog Stroller

A pet stroller comes in very handy when you want to bring your pet with you, whether it’s to the park, a beach, or on a daily jog. Pet strollers are also particularly good for senior pets that have recently had surgery, or are suffering from fatigue, illness, or injury. Also, most pet strollers are waterproof. Before buying a pet stroller, there are many things to consider, including:

• What size is your pet? You want to make sure that the stroller is a good fit for your four-legged friend so that he or she is comfortable. A stroller that is too small will be cramped and could injure your pet, while one that is too large could cause your pet to jostle around inside. In addition, many pet strollers have specific pet weight limitations, so you should weigh your pet first.
• How many pets do you have? Some strollers are designed to carry more than one pet, with ample room, multiple leash attachments, and durable materials that can handle wear and tear.
• What will you use the stroller for? If you’re simply going to walk around the neighborhood, a basic stroller is fine. However, if you plan to use the pet stroller for jogging or shopping trips, you may need extra features.
