    Absolutely nothing dumb about them, when my Bichon hurt her cruciate a few years ago I managed to borrow one of these so she wouldn't be left at home on her own while I walked my other dog. One of these dumb things was actually a god send for us and I wouldn't hesitate to use one again if the need arose. The rest I wouldn't touch with a barge pole.

    We had a doggy stroller for TJ's last months. It helped him have a rest and recharge his batteries when we were out and about. (its still in the loft)
    So no that's not a dumb invention at all in my eyes. And please if anyone does happen to see a dog in a stroller just think before laughing or making wise crack remarks. It is upsetting when its aimed at the person pushing, think before mouth engages. That poor dog just might be in there due to illness. xxx
    RIP TJ. You my be gone, but never forgotten. Always in our hearts xxx
    He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog.
    You are his life, his love, his leader.
    He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
    You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

    I used to get people passing who would mutter under their breath how ridiculous it was to have a dog in a pram, I always called after them and told them in no uncertain terms exactly why she was in it, there were a few red faces in the park after I'd finished with them. I didn't mind people asking why she was in it but when they just assumed she was being lazy and I was indulging her that annoyed me.

    Gitdog would like the fence one, please. Parent has had a new fence and him and next doors dog can't give each other kisses through the gaps any more. He's not impressed.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Victoria Stilwell had the bacon bubbles on 'It's me or the dog' years ago. I bought some for mine, unfortunately she wasn't a bit interested! :D

    Ditto. Bacon bubbles were treated the same way as regular bubbles by my hound. They went in the back of the cupboard, where the bottle promptly leaked and covered all her other toys in suds - not even bacon scented suds.

    Fox pooh, on the other hand, is evidently a scent which will always appeal to her :shocked:

    Wow, I didn't realise how much I want to take my fish for a walk until now!

    Also, the little fence window would be much loved by my pooch.
