Product Information

Full details

The TRIXIE Buggy for Dogs is designed for owners of old, sick, timid, or very young dogs and cats who need assistance with mobility. Its key benefit is providing a safe and comfortable way to transport pets, allowing them to enjoy outings without strain. A potential caveat is its weight limit of 15 kg, making it unsuitable for larger breeds. This buggy offers a quick-fold system, a 360° swiveling front wheel with suspension, and parking brakes for ease of use and security. It includes features like a large rear door for easy pet access, adjustable canopy with net inserts, a removable cushion, and convenient storage options.

Troubleshooting

Buggy does not fold or unfold smoothly.

Check for any obstructions in the folding mechanism. Ensure all locking levers are fully engaged or disengaged. Lubricate joints if necessary.

Front wheel is stiff or not swiveling.

Inspect the front wheel assembly for dirt or debris. Clean the wheel and its mounting point. Ensure the 360° joint is free to move.

Parking brakes are not engaging securely.

Ensure the wheels are clean. Check the brake mechanism for any damage or blockages. Test brakes on a level surface.

Pet is not comfortable inside.

Ensure the cushion is properly placed and secure. Use the included short leashes to keep the pet safely positioned. Adjust canopy for adequate ventilation and visibility.

Storage basket is sagging or unstable.

Ensure the basket frame is correctly attached to the buggy. Distribute weight evenly within the basket.
