Dammit! Why can't I get my Chihuahua Nico, who like all of his breed loves to burrow -- wraps himself up in the bedding until he can't be found -- why can't I get him to accept a small portable kennel or pet carry bag? I tried a small plastic kennel, but gave up. A year before I'd ordered a

Assuming you're serious... try positive reinforcement (aka sheer, utter, shameless bribery with one thing your dog loves the most. sometimes it happens to be the stinkiest tennis balls, hot dogs, or smelliest cat food (uhmm, I'm running on a theme here)). It could also be that your dog is just

I can't even get Nico into a basket! Or, I can forcibly pick him up and shove him into one, but he'll immediately jump out. My dream is to construct a nice rigid portable kennel/pannier that fits onto the side or even the top of a rear rack. But Nico ain't cooperating. I offered my daughter $50

When my service dog Ardie was alive, he would run next to me as I rode my Greenspeed trike. When I was going faster than 18 mph, I'd put him in the cargo basket in the back. Here are photos from our trip to the West Coast in 2004: https://www.flickr.com/photos/32311885@N07/15941043312/ and
