There are loads of options, mostly two-kid carriers but a lot seem really much more expesive. Anyone used one of a particular type that wasespecially good?
Answer
I pull a Burley Nomad Cargo trailer and its the best design that I have found. The hitch system is excellent, the quick release wheels and fold ability makes it simple to use and store. There kid trailers are the same setups.
Check this link, most all there trailers are there and you can compare.

What bicycle trailer would you recomend for a large breed dog?

None of the dog specific ones are big enough, through researching on the net I think the burley cub would work - any ideas or experiences please? Would also like to be able to use it as a stroller and also maybe for kids in the future.
Answer
How heavy is your dog? Large breeds can weigh 200 lb
The weight limit for a Burley cub is 100lb (45kg)

If your dog is over 100 lb (45 kg)Try these guys their trailers are rated to 300 Lb (135 kg). A flat bed with a short fence should do the job.

You will want to make sure your brakes are up to the task. A 2 into 1 lever running to brakes on both wheels of the trailer used instead of your normal rear brake should do the job.

Your dog will love riding it is even better than "the head out the window of the car". I've taken mine on a few charity rides. Everyone seems to get a bit of a kick out of it.
