It has an adjustable opening at the top for the dog’s head and four holes in front to accommodate the dog’s legs. The interior has a clasp type key hook permanently attached to the lining. Woven nylon carrying straps are attached to the back of the carrier and are secured by a plastic snap closure. The sample will be returned as requested.
