HPZ-PR America Pet Rover XL Premium Heavy Duty Dog/Cat/Pet Stroller Travel Carriage/w Convertible Compartment/Pump-Free Rubber Tires for Small/Medium/Large Pets (Stone Gray 2nd-Gen),23.0 pounds

The media could not be loaded.  My 12-year-old, 52 lb hound mix has very bad joints now. He used to be really active and run 10+ miles on trails when he was younger but these days, he often pulls back after less than 1/4 mile. He was becoming very depressed and it was obvious that he wanted to do more but everything just hurt. Nothing I did inside the house to provide enrichment was enough. When medicine and other adjunctive therapies had stopped helping, it dawned on me that not it was not only small, bougie dogs who could ride in strollers and I went on a search for something that I could use for him as well as my adventure cat. I found this! It is very stylish and roomy. With the front and back fully extended, my boy has plenty of room. He can sit upright, stand up, circle, reposition, lie down. You name it, he can do it in this thing. I am training him that the only way to get in/out is through the back zippered area, not over the edge, so he will indicate when he wants to get out to stroll a little. We tried it out in the house first and he almost instantly fell in love with it. He voluntarily stayed in it for 20 minutes- just laid in it! On our first stroll at the park, I initially pushed it while he walked next to me. About 1/4 mile in, as usual, he started to pull back, but then nosed the stroller (!!). So, I let him in and he was SO HAPPY. I pushed him about a mile and he indicated he wanted to sniff. He got out and walked about 0.2 miles again and nosed to get back in. Then, he rode calmly for quite some time. All-in-all, he got out to walk 3 times but we did 3.6 miles that first day! I tell you, there were some happy tears welling up in this mom's eyes. My boy was ecstatic to be outside, seeing the sights, sniffing the smells and listening to the birds. We just closed our first weekend with it- 3 walks at 3 different parks so far- and are up to 5 mile walks now. He is so much more full of life than he was only a few days ago. His spirit is back, he is more affectionate and cuddly. My boy is ALIVE inside again.The tote basket underneath is super handy. I was able to take his water bowl, 2 bottles of water, his snacks, my snacks, etc. easily with a ton of room to spare. There are handy pockets on the frame of the stroller, too, to keep things a bit closer at hand. The bottle holder is key, too. I love that it's there for my water bottle. But, as I discovered this morning, it would not fit my rather slender travel coffee mug. So, it's not perfect, but still a cool thing to have. I just put the coffee mug in the basket underneath since my travel mug is spill-proof.It comes with 2 "mats" but I'll be looking for a better pad or orthopedic mat to put in the bed of the stroller for my prince to lounge on.Ok- overall, I really like this stroller- a LOT. It's not truly a 5/5 because there are some things that could be better, but it's a solid 4.5/5.The not perfect: The instructions for assembly could have been better but there is minimal assembly, so fussing over the axle/feet and tote basket was not really a big deal. The protective plastic wrap was secured under permanently fixed parts of the frame during manufacturer assembly, so getting all of the plastic out (at least until it was not visible) wasn't super easy. The front wheels don't swivel, so steering isn't as precise or easy as it could be if they did. Another grump is that while the handlebar does adjust so you could push from either the front or the back (essentially reversing the stroller), there isn't a footbrake at the front, so pushing it that way doesn't make as much sense even though you could do that. I don't want to have to stop my stroller and walk to the "front" to put the brake on. So, I keep the handlebar in the original location and push it forward as intended. It folds up relatively easily but it's pretty big and it might be difficult for a small person to handle. It will take up a lot of space in your vehicle (fills the entire backseat of my Jeep Cherokee- the pets ride in the very padded cargo area). I might need to size up to a large-sized SUV if we're going to take this on vacation and expect to also take bags. So much for trending downward... but my boy is worth it.

Okay so first of all, the instructions are hidden INSIDE the stroller. I thought this was pretty annoying tbh bc I didnt know how to open the stroller or put the wheels on. And I kinda just used common sense and then once I had the wheels on and the stroller open, I found the instructions.Before I purchased the stroller, I read a lot of reviews. To the reviewer who stated that it collapsed with their dogs inside, there is a red swing-bar latch on the side that is supposed to be latched upon opening to prevent the unexpected collapse of the stroller.The stroller is great quality! I am 23 years old and both of my parents were shocked by how great the quality of this stroller was, claiming that when I was a baby, they bought me one of the best strollers on the market at the time, which was much less quality than this pet stroller lol.The only 2 complaints I have is that the leather on the handlebar feels a bit cheap (I'm not expecting real leather but still, it feels very plastic-y). The handlebar is padded though and it feels great, very comfortable and easy to grip. And the second complaint I have is the latch that keeps the stroller closed when in the folded position, it is just a flimsy plastic piece with a hook that swivels to hook onto a bar. I wish this latch was more sturdy, like a metal piece or something.The mesh enclosure is great! It is exactly what I was expecting! It's a medium thickness, not too thin and not too thick. My dogs scratched at it for a bit when they got excited when I called their names and it didnt rip! I thought for sure it would at least tear a bit but it didnt. I also LOVE the no-zip feature of the mesh too! I read reviews of other strollers before purchasing this one and one of the complaints were that the zippered strollers were hard to zip and they broke easily. This one is the mesh with a sturdy bar at the bottom to keep the shape and in the 2 corners are clips that clip onto the bottom half (the "bin" where the pets sit). Make sure to pull the bottom sturdy bar of the the mesh down & around the top sturdy bar of the bin where the pets sit and then clip the clips or it might make a small "hole" area where the two parts meet, and allow the pet to stick its nose out. As long as you pull the top part over the bottom, you'll be good.It also has 2 leash clips inside the stroller which allowed me to have both my dogs inside. One of my dogs is a malteese mix who is about 15 lbs and my other dog is a shih tzu mix who is about 8 lbs. With the back portion of the stroller extended, they both fit very well inside together with enough room to move around a bit and also sit and lay comfortably.The bottom storage area of the stroller is a great addition as well, however it is a bit hard to reach when the the pet area is extended all the way back. I kind of had to squat and reach under blindly lol. But that's just me being nit-picky, it's not a big deal. It also held a lot. I read one review that said it ripped quickly. I'm not sure what they put in it but I had a spray can of sunscreen, 2 wet dog food plastic resealable bowls, a bottle of water, the dogs' bottle of water/bowl combo, 2 dog toys and their retractable leash and everything fit very well with much more room available if needed.The stroller is pretty easy to maneuver, a bit heavy but I mean that's expected bc I have two dogs inside plus their food, water, toys & sunscreen and 2 bottles of water.It was a bit difficult when going up a curb bc I'm short (5'4) and the stroller is pretty big and I cant see when exactly I need to tilt the stroller up. It's not a big deal at all, its not even the stroller's fault, just something to consider. It rolls well on cement, wood planks (the peir at the beach), and even on grass. I have not tried it on any other surfaces so I'm not sure how it will move on sand and such.Overall, I am beyond pleased with this stroller. I love the rose gold bars so much with the black body and the tan handlebar. It's great quality and you wont be disappointed!*also, I had read the reviews that said that the plastic on the stroller comes bolted into the stroller, leaving little pieces of plastic around the bolts. This is true, however I wasnt very annoyed by it bc I was prepared after reading the reviews. Just be conscious when taking it off and dont use scissors or tweezers bc it will scratch the metal.

I researched pet strollers endlessly and finally decided to spend the extra money on this one. I'm so glad that I did! Very well made and the Extra Large is a perfect fit for my 13 lb Lhasa Apso and 15 lb Shih Tzu. They have room to move around and/or lay down without being crowded. The large rubber wheels allow it to ride quietly even on asphalt and sidewalks, and it's surprisingly smooth and easy to push through the yard. It came assembled except for the wheels and cupholder, and they were a breeze to put on! I've only used it four times so far but haven't had any problems with it. Did I mention all the storage pockets? There's room for all the fur babies' things AND my things! I love this pet stroller and the babies do too. If you're not sure...pick this one!!

Very pleasantly surprised at apparent quality. We have 3 small dogs and they have plenty or room and comfort. Rides smooth and the interior space is easily adjustable. Folds easy to fit int our small SUV.

I purchased this stroller for my 12 year old bulldog who has cancer. We took this on our road trip and Winton loved it!!!!! The carriage is more than roomy for his 60lbs, it is easy to maneuver and he could see out and enjoy the views. I found the storage underneath to be tight and hard to use. The stroller was easily collapsible and easy to get in and out of the truck. The restraints work great and he didn't even realize he was leashed safely in place. He could lay or sit and I had room to place my purse and a few of his toys and belongings in the carriage with him. The only reason I gave this stroller 4 stars and not 104 is one of the snaps has already broken on our first voyage. Otherwise, this stroller is PERFECT!
