Customer Reviews

Good Things Come in 'Small' Packages!!
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R30I9SPGCTJDLU The video shows our new little Havanese puppy (2.5 lbs at time of pick-up), Indy. To bring him home from Cleveland, he rode in a car with me to the airport, flew from Cleveland to Baltimore, and then drove another hour and a half home- all in this carrier. This carrier is ideal for in-cabin flying for small dogs/puppies.

This carrier was the perfect transportation companion for our puppy- one end unzips completely so you can easily place your dog inside the carrier. You can unzip the other end half-way, so you can easily pet and comfort your dog if he's upset. On one side of the carrier is another zippered opening- Bergan calls it 'PetConnect'- and it serves a similar role to the other, larger openings in helping you comforting your pet. All of these easy access points helped me to quickly comfort our little puppy throughout my travels home.

Knowing ahead of time that he was going to fly with me in the cabin, we searched the internet, and after extensive research for an airline-approved (that is, approved for in-cabin travel) carrier, we decided on this model from Bergan. There are countless options available, but for the money, there is no better value. The Sherpa models are FAR more expensive, but don't provide you with appreciably more features for the extra money. This carrier is lightweight, easy to carry- even with a dog inside-and a great value for the $30 or so that it'll set you back. We HIGHLY recommend this carrier to anyone that travels with their pet! Great product!

exactly what I was looking for!
I bought this for emergencies, like if there is a fire and I have to evacuate with my cats, so I wanted something small and light.- I have two cats, 8 lbs and 11 lbs. My 8 lbs cat fits very cozy in this one, the 11lbs one will probably not fit, even if it did, it will definitely look really uncomfortable so I wouldn't even try.

I also own a sherpa carrier and a plastic carrier but figured I cannot carry two at the same time ('cause I'm small and it's just too heavy, considering carrying 20lbs of my cats weight), so I got this bag to put my smaller cat in, and plan to use the sherpa for the bigger cat since I can put both over my shoulder and go (can't do that with the plastic carrier!).

The bag comes in a flat box so I had to re-bend the wires on the sides and I stuffed it so it will get back to it's original shape. So, it is definitely not as sturdy as the sherpa but it is super light and portable. I would say if you don't mind a little bulk and weight, go with the sherpa bag, it's a very nice bag. But, on the other hand you want a light weight small bag on the go, this is the bag for you!
Also, if your pet weighs about 10 lbs but is bigger than an average small animal, you should get a bigger one. My small 8 lb girl like I said, is real COZY in there and my 11 lb boy although he is NOT fat will not fit because he is longer, the few lbs really make a difference.

Great Carrier for My Yorkie
I purchased this item mainly so I can carry my yorkie puppy with me wherever I go. This is my first carrier, so I did an extensive search online to make sure I get a good and comfortable bag that will be compatible with US' aircraft regulations. Bargan Comfort Carrier seemed to offer all these options.
I'm very happy with this item, and my puppy absolutely loves it. I don't have to ask her twice to get into her "crate".
