Tuesday was an election day here in Alexandria. It was for mayor, city council and school board. Our realtor was running for city council so I thought I'd get out and vote for him since his signs have been everywhere for the last six weeks.
I thought this would be a great time to practice with Mickey and the soft carrier. We walked for a bit and then I put him in and carried him to the community center. He was interested in looking around while we walked (cars and kids) and stayed seated during the course of our three block stroll. Once at the polling place I picked up and put down the bag multiple times as I checked in and went to the booth. I peeked in on him during this time and he was lying down in the carrier.
I did learn that if you open the bag for his head to come out, he will try to follow with his entire body.
pulling those levers is hard work
The exercise was a success. He didn't bark or fight to get out of the carrier and the people at the polling place were fine with him in his carrier.
