text: I received this carrier last night. I have yet to use it. It is very well constructed. It has a lot of places for my dog to look out. My dog is a 12-pound long hair chihuahua mix. She may be slightly longer than normal. She is almost too big for this carrier. Once she is in, she acts like she is claustrophobic. Once I zip her in and pick the bag up, she settles down. It is still new to her so we will see if she likes it later. It is almost the same process that I had with the backpack carrier.
