over- the-shoulder-doggie-holder

Now I'm not one to judge others for the accessories they buy their dogs (Sadie may have gotten a new sweater over the weekend), but this one had me scratching my head. It's an over-the-shoulder-doggie-holder. I remember the first time I passed a lady on the street pushing her dogs in a baby carriage. I thought that was strange. But I'm not sure about this one. I suppose if your dog is old and can't walk far anymore, or is recovering from surgery this could work... All I know is that if I strapped Sadie into this to do some hands-free shopping, one my back would go out, and two, I'd get some funny looks...
