Each Sweet Goodbye COCOON have a strong, built-in 'cradle' that makes lifting and carrying safe and easy while keeping your pet secure and protected from the elements. The XXS, XS, Small and Medium sizes have the loop (gym bag style) carry handles The Large and XL sizes have wooden rod handles (two on each side, for total of 4 rod handles). This makes it easy for 2 to 4 people to carry heavy pets. Here’s a wonderful testimonial from a customer who used the XL size to carry her 154lb (70kg) Bernese Mountain Dog... Hi team, just wanted to send a quick message in between my tears. Today I said goodbye to my best friend. Having the XL Sweet Goodbye made the process 10x more bearable. I laid the garland and some flowers on him and covered him with his shroud and we placed him gently in his last resting place. I don't know how we would have done this without your help. Honestly having the whole thing was helpful beyond measure. Having to lift a 70kg friend into his resting place was never a worry knowing I had the handles. Being able to cover him respectfully and pat him through the top whilst waiting to settle him. It calmed me in a time of distraught. My mother was with me and was so happy I bought it. We will be purchasing one for her elderly dog to have in hand when the time comes. -Kaitlyn
