Never push your pet inside a new carrier and expect him or her to be cooperative during the trip! Most pets love to be with you wherever you go. Start introducing a good pet carrier when he or she is young (see Tips for new pet owners

Types and habits - Different pets have different habits. Having the right accessories will make the carrier a more comfortable and acceptable mobile home for your pet. We welcome any suggestions and can custom made any accessories for you at a very reasonable price.

History and behavior - Some rescued pet may have been tramatized and are particularly afraid of being left alone. A larger size carrier with a wide body for the pet to curl up and hide is a good idea. A dark interior with strong fabric will also help. For the hypro-active ones, bring a few more treats and attentively acclimate your pet to the experience.

Physical situation - We have received special custom requests for a pet with certain physical conditions or to meet certain traveling restrictions. Unusal size can be made. Show on the right is an unusally high carrier for a pet with a terminal condition that could not bend his legs half way to get inside the carrier. With the limited time, the owner wanted to take the pet hiking, the way they had done so often before the pet's condition deteriorated. The story really moved us.

Here are some more tips:

1. If your pet has chewing problems, leave a toy inside to keep your pet occupied. You may also apply some 'Bitter Apple' on the zipper teeth to discourage chewing.
2. A calm pet is more acceptable to a small size carrier. The curious one who keep turning inside, you may want to use a large size so that the pet can move freely inside.
3. If you must keep your pet inside the carrier for a long time, flip open the front window flap and roll up all size curtains to allow your pet maintaining eye contact with you.
4. In case your pet is nagging, unzip the front window mesh just enough for your hand to reach in to pet and calm him or her down. All our carriers use zipper with auto-locking device to prevent it from sliding open unless the zipper head is pulled.
5. When it is very hot or cold, utilize the climate control compartment to put a cooling or heating pad inside. In case you cannot find a suitable size pad, use a thin towel to wrap around the one you find and place it between the floor pad and plastic board inside the waterproof floor tray.
