Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller Review

Wanner Strollers For Small Dogs , ,

Introduction:

The past few posts, we have been focusing on various pet strollers to introduce you to many different options, and this article will discuss the Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller.

More and more, people have been utilizing pet strollers for their small dogs for a number of different reasons, whether to protect their dogs’ paws from the elements, help elderly or injured pets keep up with daily walks, or just simply allow slow or lazy dogs to enjoy their owner’s walks.

However, there are so many different options on the market, so it can seem next to impossible when attempting to narrow down your choices to find the best one to fit you and small dog’s needs.

In order to help you to narrow down your options, this article will go over the basic product information, pros and cons, and any additional information you may need to know to help you decide if the Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller will work for you.

Product Information:

Weight Limit Product Weight Interior Dimensions
50 Pounds 18.8 Pounds 25”L x 13”W x 21.5” H
Exterior Dimensions Tires Colors
37”L x 20”W x 40”H 2 Front, 2 Rear Black Onyx

Pros:

There are a number of different aspects that make the Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller a fantastic option for you and your small dogs.

The first being the locking wheels on this particular stroller. Many strollers on this list do not have the locking wheel feature, though it is an important one to have. This allows your dog to safely and easily get in and out of the stroller without you having to brace the stroller to prevent its movement.

Additionally, this stroller is built a little bit differently than some of the other strollers available. Many of them feature mesh and a more square carriage shape, and almost all of them are completely covered. This stroller is shaped more similarly to traditional children’s strollers, completely open in the front, with a convertible canopy that allows the top to be covered or open for your furry friend to fully enjoy the sun or be protected on warmer days.

Due to the open nature of the Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller, this stroller also features two permanent leashes attached to the carriage, which allows your pup to enjoy the wind in their face without you having to worry about them making an escape attempt.

This stroller is a popular option for the very active walkers, runners, and hikers, with a padded handle. This comfortable handle means that pushing this stroller multiple miles a week will not cause blisters and will not make your hands tired.

Finally, the Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller is a very lightweight option, weighing in only at 18 pounds. This means that even if you have a heavy dog and additional cargo in the storage area down below, you are not overexerting yourself on your daily walks.

Cons:

While there are definitely some positive aspects of this stroller, there are a couple of different things that you should consider prior to making a final decision about the Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller.

The first drawback of the stroller is that it is a fairly difficult stroller to assemble, and unfortunately, this stroller does require a fair amount of assembly before use. Mostly, people find that it is particularly difficult to assemble the wheels, though there are other aspects that are troublesome as well.

Additionally, this stroller boasts a large weight capacity and claims that it can handle multiple dogs, but there are some definite concerns about this. Many reviewers are mixed as to whether or not it can truly handle that much weight, with some noting that it becomes increasingly more difficult to manoeuvre safely, quickly, and easily when adding more weight until it becomes virtually impossible.

Others have found that the carriage is able to accommodate the weight of one small to medium sized dog, or two mini to small dogs, but the carriage dimensions are simply not big enough to allow multiple dogs or a dog closer to 50 pounds to sit, lay, or stand comfortably. This is particularly true when the canopy is open.

Additionally, while the stroller is great because it is open, the design does not offer much protection from the sun, wind, and rain, and also does not protect your dog from other animals that may be aggressive.

An additional concern about the Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller is the durability of the wheels, particularly the front wheel. After struggling to get the wheel to fit right, many have found that the wheels do not manoeuvre as easily as they should, or simply do not hold up well. This may be due to a manufacturing defect, or a side effect of trying too hard to get the wheels on correctly.

Finally, the last concern to keep in mind about this stroller is that it is incredibly important to ensure your dog isn’t chewing on this stroller anywhere. Some have found that over time, or when a dog is allowed to be in this stroller unsupervised, that they are able to chew holes in it or even through the safety leash. Do not leave your dog in this stroller unattended and regularly inspect it for damage.

Additional Information:

The storage compartment below the carriage of this stroller is spacious and is zippered to keep your belongings secure and safe. This stroller also features two cup holders for water bottles to keep you hydrated or caffeinated with some coffee.

Conclusion:

With so many options on the market today for pet strollers that cater to small dogs, it can be hard to find which one is the best for you. While this is one of many out there, this stroller’s unique design and zippered storage area makes it a great option for you and your small dog’s needs. We hope that this article helped you to decide if the Gen7Pets Promenade Pet Stroller is the best for you, and we invite you to check out our other reviews on small dog pet strollers for further research.

Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller Review

Wanner Strollers For Small Dogs , ,

Introduction:

We are currently reviewing various pet strollers, and this particular post will discuss everything you need to know about the Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller by Pet Gear for small dogs.

Small dogs can be fantastic for a number of different reasons, from their cuddle friendly size to their apartment friendly needs. However, small dogs can range greatly in activity levels and the ability to keep up with the activity level of their owners. This is where a stroller designed specifically for small dogs comes in handy.

However, there are a wide variety of different strollers for small dogs on the market today, and it can be difficult to navigate the good strollers from the bad, and decide what good stroller is the best option for you. It can definitely be difficult to decipher what features are truly needed for your small dog.

This article will discuss the basics of the Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller, as well as any pros, cons, and additional information you need to know in order to make the best decision for you and your family’s needs.

Product Information:

Weight Limit Interior Dimensions Weight
30 Pounds 24”L x 12”W x 22 ”H 28 Pounds
Wheel Size Tire Colors
12 Inch Air Ride 1 Front, 2 Rear Emerald, Pink Diamond, Sapphire

Pros:

The Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller is a fantastic option for a small dog pet stroller for a number of different reasons, and may be a great addition for your family’s needs.

The first pro is the Air Ride Wheels. These signature wheels to the Pet Gear brand means that not only does your dog ride in style, but they ride in comfort with these tires, as they absorb the bumps of uneven terrain.

As the name suggests, the No Zip Entry is also a great positive aspect of the Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller for a couple of reasons. A no zip entry means that you can load your small dog in and out of this stroller quickly without having to worry about catching their fur in the zipper. The fabric surrounding the entries seem to be a little bit more durable than the fabric on strollers that do have zippers.

This stroller also has a very open front, which helps to keep your curious dog entertained and allows them to feel the wind in their face. The fabric on this carriage is also waterproof, to protect your dog from wayward showers and makes for easy cleanup in the event of accidents.

The handle of this stroller is also much higher than other strollers on this list. At 40 inches, the handle is perfect for those who are on the taller side and who often have to hunch over other stroller handles.

Finally, the Happy Trails no Zip Pet Stroller is a fantastic option for those who have multiple small dogs or just one small to medium dog. While for some families, it is great to have a larger weight limit or room to house more than one dog, some families simply do not need all of that room. This stroller caters perfectly to those who truly need a stroller for a small dog.

Cons:

There are many positive aspects to the Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller by Pet Gear, there are a couple of cons that should be considered prior to purchase.

While the Air Ride Wheels may create a comfortable riding experience for your dog, some people find that trying to steer this particular stroller can be difficult. The front wheel tends to have a mind of its own at times, and the durability of hardware connecting the wheels to the rest of the stroller sometimes seems to be a little bit lacking.

Additionally, the Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller also sits up higher in a number of different areas. First, the entrance of this stroller sits about 18 inches off of the ground, which is higher than many other strollers for small dogs that we have reviewed. This may not seem like a big deal for a young, agile canine, this can be a difficult height if your dog is injured, disabled, or elderly. This stroller’s handle also hits at 40 inches, which means if you are on the shorter side, this stroller may seem awkward or uncomfortable to push (although this ia good for taller people, as noted in our Pros section!)

One of the great aspects about this stroller is the fact that it is built specifically for those who only need a small amount of space. However, even with the small size of this stroller, it is fairly heavy, weighing in at 28 pounds. That means that the stroller weighs nearly as much as the recommended weight limit.

Finally, many of the people who have complaints about this stroller have concerns about how to fold this stroller up for storage and travel. Many of the other strollers we have reviewed lately are easy to fold up, the Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller causes frustration in this area.

Additional Information:

There is a small mesh compartment below the carriage that allows you to transport any essentials for your pup, such as toys, water dishes, and leashes, as well as any essentials you may have as you are walking, running, hiking, or completing errands.

Additionally, this stroller contains many of the same features that other strollers have, but in many cases, cost a significant amount less than some of the other options we have already reviewed.

Conclusion:

With so many different options on the market today, buying a dog stroller for your fur baby can be almost as difficult as buying a stroller for a human child. Safety and comfort should be number one priorities for both you and your small canine, and this stroller should be seriously considered when narrowing down your list for the best pet stroller for your needs. We hope that this article was able to help you decide if the Happy Trails No Zip Pet Stroller is a good option for your needs, and we invite you to check out our other reviews of small dog strollers.

No Zip NV Pet Stroller Review

Wanner Strollers For Small Dogs , ,

Introduction:

In our past few posts we have been reviewing some of the biggest names in small dog pet strollers, and in this post, we will be discussing the No Zip NV Pet Stroller by Pet Gear. This article will give you all of the necessary information to make the best decision if this stroller is the best option for you and your family.

Small dogs are fantastic, and while there are a variety of great benefits of adding a small dog into your family, small dogs, unfortunately, do have one downfall. No matter how active they are, small dogs often times struggle to keep up with their human family members on long walks, regular hikes, and throughout daily errands. This is where a pet stroller may come in handy for you and your family.

This article will discuss one of the most popular options on the market, the No Zip NV Pet Stroller by Pet Gear, including the basic product information, the pros and cons, as well as any additional information you may need to help make your decision if this is the best stroller for your family.

Product Information:

Weight Limit Interior Dimensions Weight
70 Pounds 28”L x 12.5”W x 22.5”H 27 Pounds
Wheel Size Tires Colors
12” Air Ride 3 (1 Front, 2 Rear) Black, Dalmation, Rose, Skyline

Pros:

One of the biggest pluses about the No Zip NV Pet Stroller is as the name suggests, the no zip entrances. Many other strollers on the market today tend to have durability issues with the zipper and the surrounding fabric, whereas this particular stroller does not have this flaw. It is also much easier to open or close this stroller with a squirming animal.

Another great feature of this stroller is the front locking wheel, which means that your animal is able to safely jump in and out of the stroller without the stroller shifting or moving.

The No Zip NV Pet Stroller also features air tires, which allows a smoother ride for your pet. This is particularly important if your pet suffers from arthritis or other chronic pain conditions. Some people find that the air tires also allow better control of the stroller as well.

Another great feature of this stroller is the attached pad that comes with the stroller. Many pets, and their owners find this is helpful for maintaining a high level of comfort, particularly for picky dogs or those who are suffering from chronic conditions.

Finally, the No Zip NV Pet Stroller is also very easy to assemble, and compared to other strollers that can accommodate the same amount of weight, it is very lightweight. This stroller can accommodate up to 70 pounds, which is a much higher weight limit than other strollers for small dogs on the market today.

Cons:

While there are many great features of this particular stroller, there are some drawbacks about the No Zip NV Pet Stroller. One of the biggest concerns is that the carriage height of this stroller may be a little bit too high for particularly short dogs, or dogs who are suffering from injuries or disabilities.

Additionally, many people have found that while the Air Ride tires are fantastic for the most part, there are a couple of concerns about them that should be considered. First many have found that the hardware that comes with the stroller has a tendency to warp and become unusable rather quickly. Furthermore, while the air tires create a smooth ride, some have found that they lose air quickly and even leak to the point of being unusable.

The No Zip NV Pet Stroller also may not be the best for those who are looking to use this stroller on multiple types of terrain. While it is great for in town on sidewalks or the side of roads, gravel or rocky, uneven surfaces may not be ideal.

The carriage of this stroller also sits fairly high, even higher than other strollers we have reviewed, so it may be even harder than others for dogs who are handicapped, injured, or simply old to easily and simply get in and out of the stroller without help.

Finally, some users have found that this particular stroller tends to have some issues with the steering, making it difficult to keep this stroller moving in the right direction.

Additional Information:

This stroller contains a good amount of storage below the carriage, which is important for long walks and to bring along any toys, leashes, or water dishes for your dog, as well as any personal effects you may need.

Additionally, the customer service of this company is praised by some, while others have not had the best of luck. This is something to consider if you do end up struggling with the quality of the No Zip NV Pet Stroller (keep in mind many people do not have problems!) you may struggle to get any issues rectified.

Conclusion:

When you are on the market for a new stroller to cater to you and your canine friend’s needs, it can be difficult to know where to start and how to know which stroller is going to be truly the best fit for you. Particularly when strollers can be anywhere between $50 and $400, trial and error can be time-consuming and fairly expensive.

We hope that this review, and the other reviews for strollers that we have recently published, are useful in sorting through all the information about strollers on the market.

There are some definitely some issues with this particular stroller, however, there are plenty of different positive aspects of this Pet Gear option that make it a great choice if you own a small dog. Therefore, the No Zip NV Pet Stroller is a fantastic option for those who are on the market for a new stroller for small dogs.

Vivo Four Wheel Pet Stroller Review

Wanner Strollers For Small Dogs , ,

Introduction:

In the past few posts we have been reviewing various pet strollers, and in this article, we will discuss everything you need to know about the Four Wheel Pet Stroller from Vivo, a great pet stroller for small dogs.

While the argument generally seems to be cat vs. dogs, I think that the real argument may be between those who are owners and fans of small dogs vs. big dogs. There are tons of perks to both small and large breeds, one of the biggest concerns about small breeds, particularly those who have particularly active owners, is whether or not their dog will be able to keep up with them during their daily exercise or on their excursions around town. This is particularly true for those who own very small breeds, breeds that have short legs, or breeds that are prone to respiratory concerns.

Of course, there are other reasons that your dog may need to use a stroller. Temporary injuries, permanent disabilities, and simple old age are all conditions that may be helped with the use of strollers, making pain management for your pet more manageable as well as making your life easier.

This article will go over the product details, the pros and cons, as well as any additional information you should consider when looking at the Four Wheel Pet Stroller by Vivo to see if this stroller is the best fit for you and your small canine’s needs.

Product Details:

Weight Limit Interior Dimensions Exterior Dimensions
30 Pounds 19”L x 12”W x 19”H 33”L x 15”W
Colors Weight Tires
Black, Blue, Green, Orange, Purple, Red, Pink White Polka Dot 11 Pounds 2 Front, 2 Rear

Pros:

One of the biggest advantages of the Four Wheel Pet Stroller is how lightweight it is. Since it weighs only 11 pounds, this stroller doesn’t add any extra weight while you are on the walk. Even considering that this Four Wheel Pet Stroller holds up to 30 pounds, which is generous compared to some of the other small dog strollers that we have reviewed, this means you are only pushing around 40 pounds at the most. This is significantly lighter weight than many other strollers currently on the market.

Additionally, this stroller is very spacious and tall, which means that even if you are pushing around a tall small breed dog, or more than one toy or miniature breed dogs, they will have plenty of room to stand up and move around without sitting directly on top of each other. This stroller may even be a good way to take a litter of puppies to the vet!

This four-wheel pet stroller is also very easy to assemble, coming with clear instructions. Additionally, this stroller has a button for a quick release to easily fold the stroller down for easy transportation and storage.

Finally, this stroller features a top mesh window that allows you to keep your eye on your canine companions and let them feel the sunshine on their fur, and can easily be covered to protect your furry friends from the elements.

Cons:

There are plenty of different great things about Four Wheel Pet Stroller by Vivo, there are some definite concerns about this particular stroller that should be considered before making a purchase.

The first problem that people have found is the durability of the wheels. It seems that in an attempt to make this stroller incredibly easy to assemble, for some, the quality of the components seems to be lacking and quickly come apart. Additionally, the material that the wheels are made of seems to make it harder to navigate over rough terrain, and the actual tires seem to wear and tear quickly.

Additionally, the stroller of this carriage sits fairly high above the ground, which means if your dog has a disability, arthritis, or injury, or if they are just rather short and don’t have long legs, it may be very difficult for your dogs to get in and out of the carriage safely and easily.

The Four Wheel Pet Stroller also has some issues with the durability of the fabric. Some have found that a determined animal, with even slightly sharp nails, may be able to quickly get through the fabric and escape into the public. Therefore, it is important to closely monitor the fabric to ensure that the stroller does not have any runs, snags, or other damage that your pet could exploit and slip through.

Finally, the last concern that people have with this stroller is the fact that the zipper can sometimes malfunction and cause problems allowing your pooch in and out of the stroller, as well as damaging the surrounding fabric. Again, it is important to regularly and carefully inspect the zipper and the surrounding fabric to ensure that nothing is damaged.

Additional Information:

This stroller features a very generous below the carriage basket, which allows you to bring any essentials you might require along with you on your walks and runs. Additionally, the stroller also features two cup holders, which means that you can stay hydrated no matter how long your walk is.

Conclusion:

Picking out the best stroller for you and your pet’s needs can be difficult, especially with all of the various options available. This stroller is roomy enough to accommodate even tall smaller breeds, is easy to assemble for set up and fold down for transportation, and features a great mesh window at the top that allows you to keep an eye on your dog while they are in the stroller.

However, the biggest drawback we have found is the durability of this stroller may be questionable in the long run, though not everyone has struggled with all the durability issues that others have found.

In the end, this stroller is a fantastically popular option that often is at the top of its category on Amazon. We hope that this review will help you to make the best decision for you and your family’s needs, whether that is the Four Wheel Pet Stroller or another stroller that we have recently reviewed.

Paws & Pals City Walk N Stride Review

Wanner Strollers For Small Dogs , ,

Introduction:

Owning small dogs has a lot of definite perks, since they make great lap pets, are generally easy to exercise, are able to live in an apartment, and are so much easier to bathe. However, when it comes to owners who live very active lifestyles, small dogs face their first fault, as they often do not have the stamina to keep up with their owners on long walks, hikes, or runs. This is where a stroller for small dogs will definitely come in handy.  

However, there are many different options available for dog strollers for small breeds, and there is a lot of information to sort through. This review focuses on the Paws & Pals City Walk and Stride Stroller and why this might be right for you and your needs. In this review, we will discuss the product details, pros and cons, and any additional information may need to make an informed decision.  

Product Details:  

Below are the basics of the Paws & Pals City Walk N Stride stroller for small dogs.  

Brand  Interior Dimensions  Exterior Dimensions  Folded Dimensions 
OxGord  21”L x 14”W x 19”H   34”L x 18”W x 40”H   32”L x 17”W x 11”H 
Weight   Wheel Size  Tires  Colors  
13.6 Pounds  Front: 5.75”  

Rear: 7.25”  

 2 Front, 2 Rear   Pink, Purple, Black, Navy Blue, Blue Plaid, Red  

Pros:

There are numerous different aspects of this stroller make this stroller a great option if you have small dogs in your life who want to accompany you in your day to day activities or exercising. One great feature of the Paw & Pals City Walk N Stride is how great it is for your dog to get in and out of this stroller. This stroller features both rear and front openings for you and your dogs’ preference to getting in and out of the carriage. Additionally, the locking wheels make it stable for entrances and exits.  

As well as this, this stroller is fairly spacious, so even if you have more than one dog taking advantage of the stroller, they are able to move about easily throughout the carriage.  

This stroller comes with a removable rain cover, which helps to protect your pet from the elements and bugs. It’s easy to retract as well if your dog prefers to have a little bit of sun in their fur from time to time. Beyond that, this stroller also features two leashes to help keep your dogs in place and not running after other dogs, people, or wildlife.  

Finally, this stroller is lightweight, easy to assemble, and easy to collapse. This makes it an ideal option if you are going to be frequently transporting it in your car, or if you are short on storage space in your home.  

Cons: 

There are many benefits of this stroller, but there are also some things to keep in mind as you are considering purchasing this dog stroller. While it is fairly easy for an able-bodied dog to get in and out of the carriage, it is a fair distance from the ground, so if your dog has any sort of mobility issues, it may be difficult for your dog to get in and out of.  

Additionally, the biggest concern about this stroller is the fact that the manufacturer does list a weight capacity recommendation with this product. Many other reviewers have found that this stroller can comfortably accommodate 30 to 35 pounds, but it is unknown what the long-term effects of a  heavier dog could have on this particular stroller in terms of durability. While many reviewers find this to be a fantastic option for their pets, without the weight recommendation from the manufacturer, it is hard to wholeheartedly recommend this stroller, particularly in the long term.  

Beyond that, even if the stroller is able to accommodate 35 pounds, it is somewhat restrictive if you are looking for a stroller to accommodate two or more small dogs. If you are looking for a stroller that can handle multiple small to medium dogs, check out our reviews of the No Zip NV Pet Stroller or the Promenade Pet Stroller.  

Many people find that strollers that close with zippers often times malfunctioned or were not as escape proof as they could be. If your dog is somewhat of a scratcher or an escape artist, no zip options may be a better choice for you and your furry companions.   

The pad on the bottom of the stroller tends to be fairly thin, so you may find that is necessary to add an additional cushion or blanket at the bottom in order to keep your dog comfortable.  

Finally, some reviewers have found that this particular stroller does not manoeuvre as easily as other models, due to the four wheel design. Some have found that the wheel design is not very sturdy, nor does it travel well through sand or other rough terrain.  

Additional Information:  

While the Paws & Pals City Walk N Stride sits fairly high off the ground, which can be a struggle to get in an out of the carriage for the particularly small or disabled dogs, it does allow for extra storage space below the carriage of this stroller. This is particularly handy if you don’t have extra hands to carry toys, leashes, or other dog accessories. Additionally, this particular stroller does come with detachable cup holders to ensure that you and your furry companions stay hydrated on long walks or runs.   

Conclusion:

Regardless of why you need a stroller for you and your puppy children, this stroller is an excellent addition to your pet accessories collection. With over 700 5- Star reviews on Amazon, and many other positive reviews throughout the internet, this stroller is a fantastic option for your furried friends.
