Best puppy sling?

For an 8-9 week old lurcher? I'm keen to crack on with socialisation as we're buying a pup who has been very rural but we live in a busy town so lots of new things to learn about quickly. I'm interested in any sort of hands free carrier.

Thank you!

I’ve carried a lot of lurcher puppies around (used to foster them) and they are heavy very quickly! Any small rucksack with a top zip worm on your front will help though - use the waist belt and chest clip to spread the weight around. Then think in terms of moving from bench to bench so they can sit and watch things from your arms, and a cafe where they can sit on your lap and get a positive experience. But don’t do it for too long else it’s just overwhelming for a little one, sometimes I’d just sit on the tailgate of the car with them in a car park for 15 minutes, or walk down to the main road for a look at lorries and tractors and that was enough for the day.
