How The Pet Carrier Has Changed
The pet carrier has changed dramtically over the years. Read up on the new trends, styles and sizes and make you dog or cat feel like a celebrity.
The pet carrier is no longer a simple item that is needed when you buy your first pet.
In fact most people use their pet carriers a lot more when it comes to their pets. Rather than leaving the dog at home where it might eat and destroy things around the house, you can easily bring it along with you wherever you go.
There are carriers of all shapes and sizes so just take a look here and see how the average carrier really has changed.
If you are a woman and you have a rather small dog, you can easily buy a pet carrier that looks and feels like a real large purse.
There are even various designers that have created their own pet line that include carriers for owners who cannot seem to separate from their pets.
These handbags are typically only used for dogs considering the fact that cats do not like to be carried around like a toy.
If you do have a cat you will not use your pet carrier as much as a dog.
Cats rarely leave the house or stray from their owners so unless you are moving to a new home or taking the cat to the vet you will not use the pet carrier as often.
This is where a simple, small carrier is going to suffice. You can easily get a cheaper plastic carrier, or you can get one that is made out of material that is lighter and meant to make the pet feel more comfortable and at ease.
There are also pet carriers that are strictly designed for those who will need to take their pet on an airplane.
Airline pet carriers are approved by the airport and the airlines and may be the only thing that you can use to transport your pet.
When you do shop around for these carriers make sure that you find one that is just a bit larger so that your pet has more room to move around.
The type of pet carrier that you choose is all going to depend on what you are planning on using the carrier for. If you like to have your dog tag along with you wherever you go, a purse of some sort is perfect.
Just assess your needs before you go out and start shopping for carriers. You may be surprised by what you actually find out there!
