Re: dogs in handlebar bags. That's closer to what I'm considering. After all, the dog in question is a Miniature Dachshund. A trailer would be overkill.
What we are thinking right now is more along the lines of a basket on the back rack. The basket at http://www.cynthiastwigs.com/ is as close as we've come. Actually, the more I look the closer to IT the basket is.
I'll be sure to post pics this summer. (Now to negotiate with the money supply...)
Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

That's It!
That's what I had in mind. Dog on back of DH's bike, picnic in my pack, lovely fall (OK, I'm fond of fall) colors, maybe DH acting a bit "wolfish"...Bliss.

Stop, stop, stop!!!!
All this talk of dogs is killing me!
I've wanted a dog for EVER and but as yet am still dogless. I grew up with dogs but at the moment both of us work all day so it wouldn't be very fair on the poor pooch. However, I'm hoping to get a job closer to home soon so I could pop back at lunchtime.
BF & I have already been making doggy plans, which included a trailer so we could take puppy up to the local beauty spot about 5 miles away for a good run around.
Aaaaaahhhh..... one day soon....

........*insert cackle here*
and your little dog too! Not a clue why I keep seeing the Wicked Witch from the West when you talk about a little dog in a basket on your bike!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
