If your pooches go wherever you go, you may be thinking about investing in a couple dog sling carriers. But shopping for a sling carrier can be confusing. There are so many different brands and types on the market that it’s hard to pick between them. Here are some things to look out for if you’re searching for that perfect sling carrier.

• Not all slings are equally comfortable. Before making a purchase try on several with your dog in them to find the one that best fits your needs.
• Avoid carriers that leave dogs hanging by their crotches. This position can put pressure on their spines and cause major discomfort, and even bone problems.
• Get a sling that’s easy to use. You don’t want to spend an hour getting your sling together. Find one that you can situate quickly.
• Your dog will get heavier and longer as he grows. Find a sling carrier that can stretch and grow with him.
• If you have a heavier dog, make sure your carrier can support its weight. Don’t buy a carrier designed for a miniature poodle for a bulldog.
