I need something I can carry him in down our communal stairs, Mollie is no problem and walks down nicely I have till now carried Duncan but I am struggling so need something I can carry one handed to make sure we all get down to the ground floor safely.

I've got a few canvas crates with mesh windows which I use in the car for my staffie and my terrorist, although mine are happy to be confined they wouldn't last long if the dog was intent on escaping. All mine came from ebay and have a sturdy but collapsable tubular frame.

Thank you I'll have a look. Duncan is crate trained he loves his solid metal cage it's just too heavy to move around with him in it.
