How sturdy is the base of the inner carriage where the pet sits? I have a 26 lb. dog and want to make sure it won't bow down in the center.

The base is very sturdy. Your dog will be fine . I have seven yorkies and we all walk together. Their weight totals 23 lbs . The stroller is very sturdy all round . Best I've ever seen. Hope this helps.

I think a 26 pound dog should be fine. With heavier dog it would definitely sag in the middle. I have no problem with sagging but my three are all under 5 pounds (chihuahuas).

Your 26lb dog will sit Very comfortably in the stroller. The bottom is very well supported. My 3 pugs weight about 54lbs total and there is not an issue with support. Love this stroller!!

I have a Scottish Terrier and he JUST fits lying down. His rear end pushes against the back. He tends to sit up for the most part and I'm able to zipper him in but again, his head touches the top too. It works for us and what we need, but he's pushing the limit! We do love this carriage.

I have two small poodles they are 6 pounds and the other is 9 lbs. stroller has no difficulty with their weight and I'm sure could hold your pets weight too. Surpriseing sturdy. Only problem was the height of each carrier -wish it had been little higher, they like to sit up and ride and have to hunch over some. Get a lot of compliments about how cute it is! Great value!! My favorite part is I can turn one carrier around to face me so my wild girl doesn't bark at oncoming people and the other carrier can face forward.

No. I got mine just a week ago and with a shih tzu using it, it is already showing signs of use and becoming flat. Not sturdy at all.

I don't think so...my dog is under 2 pounds but in my opinion it is not sturdy enough for a 27 pound dog, I might be wrong. It is great and my dog absolutely loves it, in fact she never wants to get out of it:) Hope this helps!!!

I have two 16 month old black labs (85 and 90 lbs). They have done fine in it. It does seem to feel more flimsy than our smaller ones but I think that is just because of the height of the kennel. The latch has to be secured with a wire though on the one we use all the time..they paw at it and have been known to get out. My metal tray (which is why we bought it) is about 2 inches shorter than what I think it should be. Had to anchor it so that the dogs could not paw at rug that was beneath it.

Sturdy like a concrete floor??? NO! I never expected it too . It's a portable carrier. Our dog is in the 15 lbs. range and seems very comfortable in this carrier. We do put a 12"x12" cushion underneath the carrier for added stability. We're fine with that, because we carry that cushion anyway for our dog. As for us, we couldn't be happier with this purchase. Hope this helps.

I carry both my 5.5lb & 9.0lb pups in the carrier together. Perhaps I've never incurred the buckling because I've always had the base with wheels attached (which keeps the bottom flat), along with the removable vinyl bottom piece that came inside the carrier.

The tub is very sturdy and there is no problem with our pudgy 35lb. Shih Tzu. I don't klnow how good it would be for larger dogs, but it is very sturdy. We are very happy with this purchase.

This pet stroller would not handle the weight of a 60-65 pound animal. You'll need a sturdier stroller.

It is very sturdy, but you may not be able to fit a 25 lbs dog in it. It should be able to hold a 15 lbs dog.

Yes, it is very sturdy. I had to send the ones I purchased because my cats would not go in them. I have two cat weighing 15 &18 lbs and the carriers were not big enough for them. I loved the carriers but my cats did not. The carrier would be wonderful for smaller pets

I haven't had any problems with mine though I only have a 42 inch and have the cart set about as short as I can. With the way the design works the extra weight should help stabilize it further. It really depends what you intend to do with it. If you are going to put this in the middle of your garage, set at max height with a pack of excited rottweilers roaming about, then I would at least suggest putting a couple sandbags on the legs. If it is going to be against a wall, set at a more common viewing height with a big dog or two bumping it on occasion then you should be fine. Now if you have a Maine Coon that likes to jump from the top of the bookshelves onto the TV, all bets are off.

Good Sunday morning! We have the XL model and can accommodate two dogs. One is a 70 lb. Olde English Bulldogge and the other is a Boston Terrier mix about 38 lbs. Having four wheels is key as the weight shift within is inevitable as they move around so won't tip over. Most of the upper part of the carrier is mesh. The top unzips and so does the whole front end for ease of entry/exit. The carrier sits about 5-6" off the ground so not too difficult to help an ailing dog inside. Our Bulldogge is invalid and frequently needs a "boost" to get inside and BOTH dogs love it! We put a cushion inside to lay on as the floor is firm. Would strongly recommend this carrier. Hope that helps!!

It is not very sturdy at all. The whole top part easily comes right off the base. If it hadn't been that it was a short kennel stay and my guinea pigs are super tame, this wouldn't have worked.

It is pretty sturdy. My dog did chew the handle off in a matter of a few days but the rest is in great shape and I would recommend this for any pet.
