Each piece is handmade with care, combining elegance with practicality — because your puppy deserves the very best start in life.
Choosing the right dog carrier for your new puppy is important.
Your puppy should be able to sit, turn around and lie down comfortably, but not slide around. A snug—but not tight—fit helps your puppy feel secure whilst you take them out to socialise and see the world with you by their side!
Look for proper support and structure – our Teddy Maximus 2-in-1 dog carriers are padded with foam and open up into a travel bed on the go! Prioritise soft, breathable materials that can be easily cleaned.
A built-in safety clip or tether that attaches to your puppy’s harness is important – our carriers come with a trigger hook inside.
Check that the carrier is lightweight - for new puppies and toy breeds, a lightweight carrier prevents strain on your body and helps keep your pup comfortable on longer outings. All our carriers are designed with this in mind.
Think about how and when you’ll use your puppy carrier – for everyday travel & city life, soft sided tote-style carriers are ideal. Many of our dog carriers also come with adjustable straps, weatherproof fabrics, pockets and d-rings for attaching poo bag holders.
Yes. A soft, supportive dog carrier can help your new puppy feel safe and comfortable during early adventures. Our carriers are designed especially with small dogs and puppies in mind, offering a cosy place to rest while helping with early socialisation.
Your puppy should be able to sit, lie down and turn comfortably without sliding around. If you're unsure, check out the size guide here. We usually recommend a size small for dogs up to 4.5kgs, medium to 8/9kgs and large up to around 9/10kgs. Our carriers are ideal for small breeds and growing pups.
Absolutely – once your puppy is at a suitable age that they can come home with you, our dog carriers are a great way of socialising your puppy, whilst helping to keep them safe (pre final vaccinations) and happy. Our carriers feature supportive bases, a trigger hook fastening to attach to your puppy’s harness and open out into a handy bed so they can come with you on everyday adventures.
Yes! Our carriers double as a cosy, familiar bed. This is especially helpful for early socialisation, vet visits and first journey —your puppy can relax wherever you go.
Puppies need breaks to stretch, play and have a little walk. Short periods in the carrier are perfect, especially when you're out and about or travelling. Always monitor your puppy to make sure they’re comfortable.
Most puppies can begin using a carrier as soon as they are settled in your home and comfortable being handled. It’s a great tool for building confidence and helping them explore new environments safely.
We recommend using a lightweight, well-fitted harness. The safety clip inside our carriers attaches to your puppy’s harness to keep them secure.
Our carriers are made with soft linings, supportive bases and lightweight materials, making them comfortable for both you and your puppy. They’re perfect for city walks, travel, shopping trips and days out. Our carriers are not car seats and your puppy should always wear a seat belt.
Most of our carriers are machine washable and our tote bag features a removable, washable lining. We recommend a gentle, cool wash (30 Degrees Celsius) and reshaping whilst damp (no tumble dry). Dog Carriers with leather straps come with a removable cushion which can be put in the wash. Please check each product page for specific care instructions.
For small breeds, most people continue using their carrier long-term as a travel bed and everyday bag. If your dog is on the cusp between sizes, we recommend choosing the bigger size for longevity. A blanket can be popped in to take up any spare room in the short term. The trigger hook can also be made shorter by putting a knot through the tether if required.
