Recommended Use

We recommend that initially your dog carries no more than 10% of their body weight, including the contents of the backpack and the pack itself. If your dog is new to backpacks, we suggest starting with a lighter load and adding weight over time. Canned veggies make for a great trial run around your neighborhood!

Zoe G. ★★★★☆

Took this on a 3-mile hike with my lab and the backpack stayed put without shifting around. The light overnight capacity is perfect for carrying her water and a few treats. Only wish the chest strap was a bit easier to adjust.
