Since our Hattie will be coming with us wherever we go Motorhoming, I am looking for a solution to enable us to take her when we go out on the bikes.
Hattie is a Border Terrier and should weigh no more than around 6 kg when fully mature.
Although a young dog and fit enough (more than fit enough!) to keep up with us I don't want her running loose other than on quiet trails and certainly would not want her held by a long lead.
Thinking along the lines of a bike trailer (like this on Link Removed) which would add to the storage problems but would open up shopping possibilities, or a wicker basket (like one at Halfords - google Basil Wiicker Dog Bike Basket), taking up less storage but still giving us shopping capability. Would definitely need some kind of restraint for the dog, though.
Any Funsters solved their problems with such solutions?

Had problems setting up the Halfords link.
We bought our Charlie a Trixie foldable carrier which fits on the handlebars. It is very sturdy and looks great. I searched the Internet and bought it for just over £22.00, it is on ebay for anything between £30 and 36.
The quality is excellent and would recommend highly.
