How do I know if my dog fits in the carriage cabin?
The cabin measures 68 × 40 × 59 cm and has a weight limit of 30 kg. This is sufficient for most medium-sized breeds, such as the Spanish water dog or Shetland sheepdog. However, always measure your dog's back length, shoulder width, and elbow height, and contact us if you are unsure.
Can I transport two small dogs at the same time?
Yes, if their combined weight is under 30 kg and both have room to turn around. For example, two bichon frisés or coton de Tuléars will be comfortable side by side. Remember to attach both to the internal hooks and ensure the leashes do not get tangled.
How safe is it to use the carriage as a bike trailer?
The included tow hook attaches to the rear axle of the bicycle (max Ø 10 mm). The carriage runs steadily up to 16 km/h on flat roads, and the internal hooks keep the dog in place around corners. Avoid high speeds on electric bikes and check the connection tightness before each departure.
Does the carriage roll smoothly on gravel paths and forest trails?
The 16-inch rear air tires and 8-inch swivel front wheel smooth out bumps and roots. The carriage is well suited for light off-road trails, so a labradoodle or kelpie will travel comfortably even on a cottage road.
Is there still enough space for an Australian labradoodle (approx. 28 kg)?
Weight-wise, yes, but check the length and height: if the dog can sit and turn comfortably at 59 cm height, the carriage works. If your dog is particularly long in the back, however, consider the Sporty Evolution model and ask for advice regarding measurements.
How quickly does the carriage fold into the car trunk?
The push bar lock snaps down, the wheels detach with quick releases, and the frame folds (86 × 60 × 47 cm) in about a minute without tools. This fits in the cargo spaces of most station wagons and SUVs.
Which color suits me – Black/Silver or Red/White?
Black/Silver is a subdued choice that hides mud splashes in urban use. Red/White stands out in traffic and adds a lively color to your jogging path – ideal if you want to be visible in the dim autumn evenings.
Can the dog be properly secured inside?
Yes. The cabin has two strong safety hooks to which harnesses are attached. This way, even an energetic border collie stays safely on board without the risk of jumping out of the moving carriage.
Does the carriage warm up in hot weather?
The sides and roof are well ventilated thanks to mesh windows, and the front can be fully opened to improve airflow. Add a cooling mat if needed and stop in the shade if the temperature rises above 25 °C.
Does the rain cover keep the dog dry in heavy rain?
The included transparent rain cover covers the entire cabin and attaches tightly to the frame. It prevents wind and rain from entering, so your whippet stays dry as long as the zippers are closed carefully.
Is the handle height suitable for leashes of different lengths?
The adjustable push bar rises to a height of 112 cm, so a person 160 cm tall gets an ergonomic grip and someone 185 cm tall can push without bending. The handle is padded, reducing strain on the wrists.
Can I use the carriage with a cat as well?
Absolutely. A ragdoll or bengal enjoys the spacious cabin, and the weight limit is sufficient even for a large maine coon. Attach the cat to a harness with the internal hook and leave the carrier box at home.
How is the weight distributed when the dog sits in the back?
The low center of gravity and large rear wheels keep the carriage stable. Even a single 25 kg beagle rolls easily when the weight is evenly distributed over the axle. However, avoid sharp turns if the cabin mass is near the maximum.
Can I add my own padding or sleeping mat?
Yes. The cabin floor is flat, so you can place, for example, a 70 × 40 cm orthopedic mattress. Choose a washable and breathable material so the cockapoo stays comfortable even on long trips.
Is the carriage suitable for show use with a grooming table?
Yes – a separate grooming table compatible with this model is available for the InnoPet series, which attaches at 90 cm height and supports 15 kg. It saves your back when finishing the coat before the ring – whether it’s a shiba inu or a Norwegian forest cat.
