Oprah Winfrey is now the proud owner of two trendy dog carrier totes by PuchiBag!  The syndicated TV program “Extra” presented her with the bags as a surprise at her home during the celebration of the Oprah Winfrey Show’s twenty-sixth anniversary.

When “Extra’s” Mario Lopez went to her house to interview her at the premier of her twenty-sixth season, the show showered her with goodies by giving her a large puppy-themed gift basket. Among those gifts were two PuchiBag dog carriers for her new dog “Sadie.” At right is the Tami Elite, Zebra, which was included in the gift basket.

Oprah met Sadie at PAWS Chicago, the city’s largest no-kill humane shelter, where she immediately fell in love with her.  “Out of all the pups….Sadie was the one I felt an instant connection with. She had licked my ear and whispered, ‘Please take me with you,’” says Oprah in the June 2009 issue of O Magazine.

The gifts were the brainchild of PuchiBag’s Founder and CEO, DeEdyre Burks who was successful  in presenting these dog carriers to Oprah after many years of trying.

PuchiBag dog carriers are unique in that almost all conform to airline regulations and can be used for travel, errands or any outdoor outing.  At the same time they exemplify the ultimate in style and haute couture. In a recent review of the Blue Dot PetSak by PuchiBag, Dogtime’s “Secret Shopper” said, “Can I tell you this bag is wonderful! Anna Wintour would agree for sure.”

PuchiBag was founded in 1999, by two Los Angeles businesswomen who decided to bring together their knowledge of both fashion and furry friends. PuchiBag has been sold to over 1000 stores internationally and has appeared in feature films (including MGM’s “Legally Blonde”), numerous publications (including InStyle, US Weekly, Vogue, Marie Claire and The New York Times) and has a long list of celebrity fans.

These and other fashionable and functional dog carriers may be found in pet boutiques and pet stores carrying upscale dog carriers and luxury dog products, as well as on my website, www.PuppyCratesPlus.com.  See you there!
