If you’re thinking the internet can’t get any more niche than this, it finds a way to get even more specific.
We’re, of course, talking about an Instagram page that is solely dedicated to sharing people’s photos of dogs chilling in bags as they are being transported from point A to point B. Yes, that’s a thing.
The Instagram page has a bit over 98,000 followers, and the page itself encourages people to send in pics they snapped of dogs in carrier, or not carrier, bags. As of this article, the page has nearly 1,300 posts.
Scroll down to see our curated list on the matter, and while you’re at it, comment, vote, and why not tell us if you do the same because your dog has to be a king or a queen while in public!

😹While this looks funny, odds are that it's because he's having trouble breathing. Brachycephalic breeds are notorious for this due to the elongated soft palate and narrowed nasal passages & windpipe resulting from the way people breed them to look so pugly.😿

I thought this, especially as the animal is completely enclosed in the bag except for the outer part of its face. It’s probably hot and miserable as hell but hey cute “blep” right?

Simple: it isn't. Being carried vertically can damage a dog's spine, as it is not supposed for this direction of force, and shouldn't be performed frequently.

Huskies are great dogs (when properly trained, as w/all breeds) but their markings make them look like they're always angry😠 They are the "Grumpy Cat" breed of the dog world😾

So, Instagram has so many dog pages that it should honestly launch a spin-off social medium called Dogstagram. There is a hashtag, so I guess we’ll settle for that.
The Dogstagram universe includes heaps upon heaps of accounts dedicated to worshiping dogkind, and one of these pages is a rather niche affair called BagDogs. And it’s exactly what it sounds like.

Very empathic response, DAISY 👏😺👍 But don't worry, dogs have fewer nerve endings per square inch and don't feel pain to the same extent. If it's actually painful they react and if it doesn't ease they'll start thrashing around and you can't ignore that. Have you seen the positions animals can sleep in without pain? It blows my mind 🤯

I'm not so sure, Kzincat. Those ears couldn't be any flatter, nor those eyes and mouth any wider. And as easily as Huskies are overheated, I'd guess he's stressing a bit.

Oh come on now, that's how they always look. That's love to be carried
Fun fact, part of this movement of having dogs in bags was due to the fact that New York city has banned dogs in the subway—they had to be carried in bags, by which the government probably meant doggie carriers and not actual bags, but people used everything in this case, including “modified” IKEA bags.
But besides this ban, there is a certain kind of convenience both for dogs as well as owners. After all, the dogs can chill, and the owners can walk faster. Sure, everyone ought to get some exercise here, but the smaller puppers may have problems walking New York distances.

Supposedly these carriers aren't recommended for dogs because of the abnormal way their hips are splayed and extended. It Looks damned uncomfortable tbh.

That's 💯% spot on, Luna Noire 👏 😺👍 And it doesn't comply with the rules either. MTA states "No part of the animal may stick out of the carrier." But this is better than the big dogs in plastic bags🙉

It's only so the owner can take a wee or poo possibly. Best thing the owner could do was to protect those little buttons from touching the nasty bathroom floor and contacting so much bacteria, puppers would lick their feet at any given time even before you get a wash cloth out. This seems to be a thoughtful doggo owner. The pup will become comfortable with it in time and just takes training.

Maybe he’s wearing the bag because it might be required that you can only bring your dog on the subway if it’s in a bag.
TheAnimalLady 4 years ago
Downvote all you want but Nelson and I are right, you bunch of babies. MTA rules state "Small domestic pets are allowed only when they are in carriers. No part of the animal may stick out of the carrier. The carrier must not inhibit other riders' ability to access seating or handrails." Bags are NOT pet carriers! People caught "cheating" are now being given $25 fines and are evicted from the transport by the police.

So true, Tee Witt. And all that fur in an unventilated gym bag 🙀🥵 That's why the MTA rules state "Small domestic pets are allowed only when they are in CARRIERS. No part of the animal may stick out of the CARRIER." Carriers have vents (& floors that support the animal).

TheAnimalLady 4 years ago
I'm afraid it is, Shinyravengirl (😻 the username). Unfortunately it's morbidly obese, very common in Pugs who's owners don't take proper control of their diet. Certain breeds are prone to obesity because of the biological changes that have happened from people's selective breeding for looks over health. As evidenced by the fact that we never see obese wolves in the wild (of which all dogs have descended) . The only "fatties" in the wild are supposed to be "obese"... hippos, manatees, elephants, etc.

I was thinking that I hope the dogs in backpacks where released as soon as they were off their transporters. Not only does it seems uncomfortable for a dog, but having 50+ pounds on your back isn't good either. I have a 55 pound shepherd mix (hence, Zoe's Mom) and I don't think I could carry her on my back. But on the other hand, I applaud these folks for taking their dogs with them when they can. We are allowed to bring dogs on any transporter in San Francisco.
