BEST DOG STROLLER ON THE MARKET, May 22, 2008
This review is from: Solvit HoundAbout Pet Stroller, Large, Sapphire Blue (Misc.)
The HoundAbout is the BEST dog stroller on the market! I own it. My dog has cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy with Chinese herbs and acupuncture. These sessions can last up to 3 hours at the Oncologist's office. Initially, I just wanted something to keep her off the concrete floor as well as something comfortable, but the HoundAbout is much more than that.
After lengthy research, I decided on the HoundAbout. I have not been disappointed! My dog is comfortable the entire visit. The padding and design have the dog in mind. Visibility is excellent, yet the dog is safely contained. I love the durability of it as well as the wheel system. Unlike the cheaply built dog strollers on the market that use small, hard plastic wheels, the HoundAbout uses larger pneumatic bicycle-type tires that can be changed when tread wears thin. Also, with a tire that can be aired up, the ride is much smoother than the competitors hard plastic wheels and is easier to push, even in dirt. Another plus is how the HoundAbout breaks down to be put in the car. Yet, it is fast and easy to set back up. I would highly recommend the HoundAbout for anyone looking for the best dog stroller available. I believe that it will last a lifetime and would never need to be replaced!

awesome stroller, October 2, 2008
This review is from: Solvit HoundAbout Pet Stroller, Large, Sapphire Blue (Misc.)
We bought this stroller for our 10 year old shepherd mix. Coastal Pet Supplies offered it at a great price and with reasonable shipping costs. The item arrived within a few days of placing the order. The Solvit Hound-about was easy to assemble and it is made of very high quality components. It is also easy to break down for travel. We had previously purchased a smaller stroller for only slightly less money. I would definitely recommend spending a little more and choosing this stroller. It has so many features that I like, it would be hard to say what my favorite is. I suppose that I would say that it is easy to navigate as well as roomy. My dog likes it, too. I think she feels like a princess in there.

Love It!!!, July 22, 2009
This review is from: Solvit HoundAbout Pet Stroller, Large, Sapphire Blue (Misc.)
I looked for a long time at all different types of dog stroller for my elderly springer spaniel - I settled on the Large stroller (might have gotten away with the medium but he is a large, not fat, springer at 50 lbs and the medium was rated just to 50). I esp. like the rear entry and the fact he can sit up/turn around/lay down in this stroller. Bentley can now come along on our long walks - we even have our Brittany spaniel pulling the stroller (he thinks he is a sled dog)
I liked the idea that you could collapse the stroller and put in the car to take to a bike pth, etc BUT you need a station wagon/SUV, etc to transport - it takes around 5 minutes to take apart and put back together, but the large takes up my entire cargo area of my Volvo wagon (which made me wonder if I should have gotten a medium)
One word of caution, if you want to pull it behind a bicycle as a dog trailer, I would recommend buying that version (the Trackr) and getting the conversion kit for a stroller - it doesn't appear to be a conversion kit for a stroller to a trailer.
Also, the cup holder is joke - we can't tighten it up tight enough to put anything it in (it spins around)
Glad we bought it - and it appears sturdy enough that it will last for use by our Brittany when he is too old to walk long distances...
