    Can you carry your dog(s)?

    haha, a random thread!! I can carry Blaze, he's about 40 pounds. It's so funny...I'll pick him up, and he goes limp, and loves to be held!


    Thanks Kay!!

    I voted both "Yup" and "Are you kidding"!!

    Chloe is only about 15 pounds, so she gets carried a lot. Venus is about 80 pounds...I could pick her up if I really wanted, but my back doesn't exactly agree.

    Sahara....Yeah, right! I think we're up to 110 pounds now!

    I couldn't vote because I can carry Sierra (60 lbs) but I can NOT carry Buddy's big butt (90lbs)

    Are you kidding!

    That's what I voted. But I guess if I had to I could carry Huney for a short while. But I could never ever carry Bon

    There is NO way I can carry my dogs. Are you kidding?
    They are both big dogs I don't know if I can even pick them up.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    I voted are u kidding, i have not been able to carry these two since they were little puppies, although sometimes Rita thinks she is still a baby and would probably agree with being carried if i could pick her up.

    I can carry Peej since he only weighs 33 lbs. Neither one of us likes it, though.

    I don't carry Bailey because at 45 lbs, she's just a little too heavy. I lift her when we go to the vet, but that's it.

    Yup, I carry Gigi all the time. I love holding her. Even though she is only 10lbs, I can only carry for a short period of time.

    Thanks Kay for the set.

    Yes and I do all the time. I just won a doggie backpack with wheels on eBay the other day, so soon I can wear or wheel one around!

    Try carrying 4!!!

    I had to laugh at this poll. My dog Scooby is the smallest but the heaviest of my dogs! (35 lbs) He is a powerhouse!
    However, when he had his stroke he went paralyzed on his ENTIRE Right side! The vet told me that he would tend to walk to the right almost in a circle.
    I worked very hard to rehabiliated Scooby. We would walk to the mailbox which was only 2 streets from my house. The first few weeks we would get to the mailbox but he couldn't make it back! He would stop and not move until I picked him up.
    I was kind of embarrassed because I had to walk in front of ALL my neighbors carrying my dog, a handful of mail, and the other dog on a leash! Everyone knew I spoiled my dogs rotten but to be seen in public actually carrying my dog was too much!

    I can carry Reecie easily. I can pick Lolly up but don't generally carry her unless I HAVE to. She doesn't enjoy it anyway.

    Tommy no way, I can't even lift him off the ground. I can pick Tasha up and carry her a short way but she's close to 50 pounds, so not very far. She goes limp in my arms like a puppy too when picked up.

    Oh and Tommy's weight is 85 pounds, Tasha is 47.
