Gracie's stroller arrived this evening! I bought it off of Ebay - I wasn't sure about the shade of green when I ordered it, but I do like it. I think it looks like a really nice stroller...the fabric seems durable, it has a drink holder, compartment for keys/debit card etc, and a basket underneath which is always handy. It zips up in the front and also velcro's when the awning is down. There is a pad for her to lay on and a tether so she can't jump out. The handle is a nice height and is comfortable. I put Gracie in it and we went for a stroll (in the house!) and she settled right down and seemed happy with it. Here are some pics (does anyone know how to get rid of the amber color that shows up in her eyes in most of her pics???)

Now I need to plan a trip or something so we can put the stroller to use! :D

Terri it is adorable. And Gracie looks like she is making herself comfortable in it. I love that color green.

That's a pretty cool stroller. I got mine off of ebay as well. Looks like she is going to really enjoy her strolls in her new wheels! I don't know how to remove the "bright eye look" in the pictures but hopefully someone can give you the answer. Thanks for the pictures of Gracie and her new stroller!

Omg how cute!! I love the second picture, she looks like she really enjoys it!!

For the eyes, I've always heard you need to have ALOT of light in the room, prefferably natural, no flash and above eye level of the dog... But Im not really sure becuase I always get the "amber eyes" too..

I think your stroller looks great. You will really enjoy having it zip when you are in situations when you don't want other dogs to be able to get too close. It also works great when you are in crowds with children who maybe have sticky candy hands and want to pet your baby. We love our stroller.

i was thinking about getting a stroller for a while, but are they really worth it? I mean yeah, they look adorable, but I have doggie purses (which are kinda a pain when shopping....) when else would you use it? I dont really bring Ava to the mall that much so when i do, its the purse or my arms. where else do you use the stroller?

We had a neighborhood yard sale last weekend; I put Gracie in my grandkid's stroller and she loved it.

Also, walks with the grandkids around our neighborhood which can last up to 45 min or so, probably longer than Gracie would like. Like I read on someone else's post - sometimes her walks are more like drags! :)

We go for weekend trips like to Gatlinburg, TN - very handy for going in and out of shops (not restaurants though)

The park (picnics, taking kids to play on the water features) - keeps her secure from other dogs and kids and provides some shade. We have a church picnic at a park this weekend and I'll be taking her and her stroller! :D

I think I will be enough use out of mine to warrant the $60...at least I hope so!

She looks like she is enjoying herself. I think Carol might have that as one of the colors on her stroller.:crazy: You need a program to take out the red eye. My kids come out with florescent green eyes in pics especially Cody.
