Pack for carrying a small dog

I am looking for ways to transport small dogs on a scooter. I am thinking that a pack would probably be best. Any recommendations?
  • What will you do with them once you arrive at your destination? Better try it a few times with a backpack or something that will work to make sure they will ride and not panic and try to jump.
  • I once used a "front" pack for my chihuahua. He could sit in the pouch and see out. The straps crossed my back. I would worry about a dog I couldn't see. You could also use a plastic travel crate and strap it on the back of the bike....they can't get out of those.

    Hike the trail. No, I am not taking them to museums or resturants.
  • There are a lot on the market.
    On the economy end, there's this one
    Pet Backpack

    The Snoozer line costs a bit more, but are very versatile, and well made. They have everything from open bicycle basket carriers, to convertible backpack-to-rolling luggage type carriers.
