Emma was extremely helpful on the sizing of this sling for both me and my dogs. I’m 5’8” and Emma added extra length to the straps to make a more comfortable carrying position for me. I bought 2 large slings for my mini dachshunds. The size fits both my 16 inch length and my 14 inch length Doxies. My 14 inch length dog weighs 14.8 pounds and I wanted her to have some more room inside with the larger sling. Both dogs are comfortable in their positions and fall asleep quickly. These are beautifully sewn and well made. The light material slings are perfect for living in Florida. Thank you Emma

Absolutely stunning work we get so much compliments! Originally bought the small for my puppy and we've sized up to this as she's grown. Emma was super responsive and helpful with all my questions on size and dog measurements and it's totally perfect again for the second time! Thank you so much, such peace of mind travelling with my dog on the tube and sitting in pubs etc! Thank you so much

We purchased these light weight dog slings (large size) for our 2 mini dachshunds and they are great! We also purchased the fleece ones last winter and they were awesome as well. We like to use them when we go into the stores with our dogs so they feel safe and don't bark at everyone or for when we go on hikes and we use them when the dogs need a break for a while from walking. Very well made and I would highly recommend them.

J’adore ce sac pour chien! Je l’aurai encore plus apprécié si le « tour de taille » était légèrement plus grand.

Totally deserve 5 stars. We needed this delivered quickly as we were heading for a hiking weekend and our dog injured herself. Communication was great and they shipped it the same day. I received it the following day. The item is sturdy. We ordered the grey in size large and I was delighted when it arrived to see it had a yellow lining. The dog just loves it.

The carrier is the perfect size and shape for my little papillon boy. He likes a good walk but after a few kilometers he gets tired and I found it quite tricky to carry him in my arms- this is working so well 🤩Communication was excellent and I was asked to confirm my height so the strap is the perfect length for me to wear.

Super impressed by both the quality and the utter speed this beautiful product reached me in!

It’s the second sling I’ve tried my pug x patterdale cross in (I got the large, plus clip) and it’s finally the one that fits him perfectly — very excited to be able to relieve his senior legs and soothe his anxiety out whilst allowing him to get a nice enriching sniff of his surroundings still!

Thank you so much 🏆❤️‍🔥

This is very nicely made but unless you want the sling undercutting your boob, ask them to add some length to it. Measure where you want it to fall on your body and provide that measurement. Otherwise you’ll get one that slings under your armpits.
