It doesn’t matter if you’re human or a furry friend… everyone loves to travel in style. My girlfriend, Lisa, has a Yorkie named Gidget who loves to be on the go. She’s getting older and getting around isn’t as easy for her these days. Lisa searched high and low for the perfect transportation for her best friend and she is thrilled that she finally found it! It’s the Jeep Rubicon Pet Jogger by Pet Gear and it enables her pooch to go with her to the mall, the beach and on long strolls like she used to. Lisa is in love with the features of the jogger, which include front and rear zippered mesh doors, a finger braking system, front reflectors and 3 wheels for easy turns. It also has a large storage basket on the bottom, has a parent tray for keys, drinks, a leash and more, has a one-hand fold mechanism and comes with a removable interior waterproof tray for easy cleaning. This jogger is functional, stylish and lets you take your pet anywhere you want to go. The Jeep Rubicon Pet Jogger retails for $199.99.

It’s definitely the latest craze…dog strollers. At first, I thought this was a pretty silly concept. Don’t dogs want to walk and need exercise?
