Yes! The bag is designed with vet input and tested for ergonomics. It has cushioned support, breathable mesh windows, and proper weight distribution. Your dog should be able to sit naturally with their paws down. Always attach the safety leash to a harness (not a collar) for comfort and security.

Yes, many customers use it for senior dogs or pups with mobility issues who can't walk long distances. The bag gives them a safe way to still join adventures. Just make sure they can sit comfortably, and we advise taking regular breaks - see below for guidance.

Dogs can stay in the bag as long as they're comfortable and relaxed. For longer trips, take breaks every 1.5 hours for a pee break and leg stretch. You also want to go to the toilet and stretch your legs every 1.5 hours, right? Your dog does too! These regular breaks keep both of you happy and comfortable on longer adventures.

Yes! Our bags have been extensively tested and approved by certified veterinary professionals, including specifically for long-backed breeds like dachshunds. The design supports your dog's natural sitting position with proper weight distribution and cushioned support.

The key is correct sizing and usage:

• Measure your dachshund's back length carefully (most standard dachshunds fit size S)
• Always use the internal safety leash attached to a harness (never a collar)
• Support your dog when putting them in and taking them out
• Take regular breaks on longer trips

The bag is designed for transport from A to B, not for extended periods. As long as your dachshund can sit comfortably and you take breaks, they'll be safe and happy in the carrier.

For every bag sold, Homies Dogwear donates a meal to a shelter dog, as we believe all dogs deserve the care they need. This year, we donate to the animal shelter in Amsterdam: DOA.
