Purchase advice – dog bicycle baskets for the front

Above all, a good dog bike basket should be robust and able to transport the dog safely. It is also important that the workmanship is good.

For me it is important that the dog bike basket has a roof, because my dog ​​doesn’t necessarily like to sit still.

So I can guarantee that he won’t jump over the basket. Of course, the safety line is also an absolute must here.

Depending on the use, you can choose whether the basket should also be used as a transport bag.

Conclusion

For me personally, the KLICKfix dog bike basket is the best model. The quality is right here and it is easy to attach.

The rain cover is ideal because I like to cycle on rainy days and at least the dog doesn’t have to sit in the wet.

In my opinion, a recommended model that cannot be missing if you have a small dog with a maximum weight of 7 kg. For 15 kg dogs, however, the choice is somewhat smaller.
