Is there a carrying strap? Is the floor rigid enough that the unit could be picked up and carried 20 feet with a dog standing in it?

There is a handle (no strap) for carrying the case when it is folded. The floor is soft, not ridgid, so no, you cannot carry it with a dog standing in it unless it were a very small, light weight dog.

Yes, mine has a carry handle. It's red though. I had 2 cats in mine with a total weight of about 25 pounds. Very convenient for a 20 hr drive to Florida. The floor was rigid enough to carry them into a hotel room.

There is a carrying strap designed for use when the crate is folded. I don't think it would be strong enough to pick up with a dog in it, unless it was a small dog.

It would not be a good idea to try to carry the Sof-Krate with a dog inside unless it is a very small and calm dog. The unit is well-made and a good value, however, it is not designed to be carried like a rigid plastic carrier.

The floor is semi-rigid. If it were more rigid than it is, it'd be uncomfortable for the dog.

There is a molded handle on the back side. Carries easily. This unit is small and light weight. Sits low to floor, but beats trying to use any "alternative" method =D. You just have to dump a little more frequently.

I never transported an animal in it but I would think a heavy duty trash (approx 32 gal) around it with the top not tied would be sufficient.

I haven't brought this upstairs myself, but yes it would be easy to take it upstairs that way. It'd only be a few inches wide. However, I think it'd be just as easy to carry it unfolded, unless it's too wide for your doors/stairwell. I use mine mainly for dirty rugs, so while it doesn't get full, the rugs are heavy. I am 5'9, and I don't lean over much. However, I only push it around to mop under it. . .

My dog weighs 5 pounds and it holds her. I think a platform in it would be helpful.

It would take 2 people to carry it, however 1 person can easily drag it without too much strain. It is tall & sturdy.

It did not have a handle, and no it was not an issue. I simply waited to load my dog in the crate after they put the crate on a dolly and they rolled him away.

I would say no, but I don't have the feet so its not set up to free stand. I have it fully extended with weights on either side to support it. Its sturdy enough that it doesn't dent or get damaged when my dog jumps on it, but it definitely moves and shakes. I have a 50lbs chow chow.

No, it only loads through the front gate. It is made for a larger animal, that wouldn't be easily picked up and put in the top of a carrier.

I bought one for my 60 lb. dog and she has no problem getting up and down. It has carpet on it so that they can keep their grip. I love mine!

it definitely has a strap to carry, but doesn't have legs for a carry-stand.

I load the cart up with heavy books / magazines. It is sturdy. Probably would want a foam cushioned mat for the dog to lay on top of. I've very pleased with it.

I haven't used mine for carrying a pet but I have a dog who weighs 10 lbs too.I agree with M. Conant. I would not carry her in this basket because it is not deep enough. I would purchase one that had more depth. I'd be scared my dog would fall out also.

It probably weighs 20 pounds....No you can't carry it with a dog inside. The 36" one is big enough for a medium-big dog up to about 50 pounds...

No removable carrier. Fold fairly flat. Light. I do not think dogs can go into a restaurant! Board of health?
