Fit the pet compartment
A weight limit alone does not prove that a dog can sit or lie comfortably. Check internal length and height, the opening size and whether there is room for a pad without reducing airflow. For two pets, assess each compartment separately.
Wheels, brakes and fold
Think about the footpaths and surfaces you will use. Larger wheels may handle uneven ground more comfortably, but no pram is suitable for every trail. Check wheel attachment and brakes before each trip, and measure the folded size for your car or storage space.
Safe and calm travel
Introduce the pram indoors before longer outings. Close the canopy or zip as instructed and use the provided tether with an appropriate harness where supported. Monitor temperature and ventilation, particularly in warm weather.
