I bought my gf this Wald Giant Delivery Basket for her school stuff and her Maine Coon cat (around
2214lbsI thinkconfirmed). It's the sturdiest thing I found out there. It doesn't have an actual weight rating as far as I could tell, but it could hold the cat just fine and this reviewer says it's okay for his 25lb dog. I feel confident it would not break, but I can't guarantee it so test it out first with something else if you use it.The bigger concern would be how it would throw off your steering. 30lbs of dog + 7.8lbs of the basket is gonna do a number on your control. I have no idea if that would be steerable.
Yeah I'm gonna give it some time. I like the look of this one, and the way the back of it is shaped makes it easy to pick it up to swing the rear end around when locking up. I'm also thinking I may want to get a front rack. Hopefully something large and sturdy enough to carry something like a case of bottled water.
edit: I think I found the perfect front rack/basket: http://www.amazon.com/Wald-Front-Delivery-Bicycle-Basket/dp/B0012DQAM6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1426292215&sr=8-1&keywords=Wald+giant+basket
check out wald's front baskets. they're cheap and well built, and you can just put a backpack, or whatever, inside without worrying much about retention. they attach at the axel and at the handler bar, close to the stem. this one is quite large and under $50. personally, i prefer heavier loads on the front of the bike.

I love everything currently on her, but may end up going a bit wider on the bars now that I'm riding the rig fully loaded.
Wald makes some very good baskets, both front and back. You just have to ride slower when hauling stuff in a basket.
