"Dog loves it! Will never be without this! She'll sleep in this even on the beach :)"

— MollyandTinkerTails

"Pretty sure I received a damaged/returned item. For months it was wobbly and the wheels kept coming unattached. After further inspection there were pieces that were originally assembled wrong - right out of the box. The zipper teeth would always pull apart, especially with a light budge of my chihua..."
