Expandable Travel Pet Carrier, Airline Approved & Guaranteed On Board - Black, Medium

This is so good I bought a second one so I could take both my cats at the same time

Just the right size for my 12lb terrier mix dog. She can curl up in this and sleep. I can carry this over my shoulder and she can stick her head out the top. On a 9 1/2 hour flight she had the middle seat all to herself. I was able to fold down the side and she could spread out. She can also look up at me through the mesh areas. She can see me and I can see her. She peed a little bit on the flight. The Sherpa liner comes out and cleans up nicely in the washer and air dry. I highly recommend this carrier. After one round trip to Europe and back, this carrier still looks great.

This is a great travel crate. The expandale side is wonderful. We travel alot by car and have been training our cavapoo to ride in this in the car, he has his toy and is very content. Highly recommend!

I have three Sherpa bags, as I am not sure which I can use and when. This one comes with two rods that you zipper in the top across the ends, to keep the top a little more sturdy. I feel like you have to take at least one rod out to fit under a seat. I am flying to Norway and ended up going with my Sherpa Delta as I am afraid those seats will be a problem on the hight. I don't want to end up turned away at the airport. My dog loves all the bags.

This is one of the lightest in weight pet carriers I have found that is still durable and well constructed. If you are worried about the weight restrictions this one will do you a solid. I have a small jack Russell and she fits in it just fine. The expandable part is nice for hanging out in the airport.

I'm trying out a lot of carriers for upcoming plane travel for my dog and still deciding between a few, however, I knew right away this is not the one for me. Pros: -nice concept of an expandable compartment for your dog to stretch out in, BUT... -compact size that may be good for very small dogs (but tight fit for my 8 lb Maltese) -nice to have ventilation on both ends of the carrier, BUT ... since the mesh is soft, it make the ends feel less safe / less sturdy / less protection for your pet inside Cons: -mesh on this carrier is softer, more pliable than other Sherpa carriers, so feels less sturdy -when zipped up, sherpa lining that otherwise would extend into the expandable area sits awkwardly as a side wall inside the carrier and can flop down on your dog -no mesh at the top of the carrier for you to look in on your pet -zip on side opening is not at the outer border, so makes for a smaller entranceway to get your pet in and out of Might be a good carrier for short local trips in the car or to the vet, but felt too cumbersome and sides not sturdy enough for plane travel.

Multiple seams were falling apart but even aside from that the the carrier felt quite flimsy. The whole bag had a terrible chemical/urine smell. the zippers got stuck more often than not. Hope for others’ sake that the one I received was a fluke.

It works well. Our pups are 20 lbs, so this size was barely large enough, but the airline accepted them for in-cabin transport. We really like the fold-out on the side. It helped the pups to have a little more space.

Used this expandable Sherpa bag on Porter airlines with no problems! Nice and roomy for a small dog or cat, even without using the expandable portion. Lots of space to spin and flop down. And super roomy when expanded. My daug (dachshund/pug mix) curled up and slept the whole flight! The bag is also great in the car/truck and buckles well using vehicle seatbelts through bag straps. Sherpa makes great products!

We were planning to fly with our 17lb small terrier and was looking for a sturdy, comfortable and compliant carrier. This one was recommend by friends and met our needs. The carrier is good quality and strong enough to keep its shape, even with our dog inside. There are a number of vented covers that keep the dog secure and provide good airflow. The front of the bag opens up to reveal additional space to stretch out which is a great feature. The bag is well balanced with the hand straps but the shoulder strap was not that good. The base mat is easy to separate and clean in the washing machine. A couple improvements to the carrier would be to have a place to tie down to prevent escapes and a larger pocket on the exterior to carry loose items. Good value

Flew on porter airlines with my 13lbs dog with no issues! Highly recommend!

Very well thought-out design, and very high quality construction. Lightweight. Far easier to carry your pet in than a plastic carrier, and great for short trips away from the house. I would hate for my 8 lb cat to have to spend 9 hours in such a small confined space, but I gather the carrier height is required to fit under the airline seat.
