Great, but could be improved October 6, 2008 Glory Days Photo (Texas, USA) Bought 2: One for a lab/chow/pit mix and one for a rottie/shepherd? mix. I put a frozen bottle of water in each side of each backpack. Then halfway through the walk I stop them and they get a drink in a collapsible bowl. (I usually walk 5 - 6 dogs at once with only 2 wearing backpack.) Product fits ok, but needs more color and could really use some reflective strips or threading since we often walk at dusk. Also, I have noticed that the dogs do not want to sit down when wearing the backpacks. In the car on the way to walk, they stand or lay down. ? Not sure why on that one.
Great product at a great price!! August 27, 2008 Carlos (Costa Mesa, CA USA) My 90 lbs. Chocolate Lab and I went on a week long trip to Mammoth in August. This backpack worked great!! It withstood all the hiking we did to Devil's Postpile, Rainbow falls, Red Meadows, Mono Lake, Agnew lake, etc. It was a GREAT PURCHASE. I had to balance it out, but once it was balanced, it didn't fall off and it was not cumbersome for him at all. The canvas its made from looks a bit flimsy, but it withstood him rolling on the dirt, taking a nap on it, and all the branches and brush we encountered. It was a great starter backpack if you are not sure if a backpack will work on your dog. If I ever go backpacking with him, I may get him something with more straps to secure it better, but it worked great for our trip!!! REMEMBER TO PACK YOUR DOG'S POOP AND THROW IT AWAY PROPERLY!!!! DON'T JUST LEAVE IT ON THE TRAIL!!!
dog backpack August 15, 2008 D. Saller (Texas) We bought this item to help with training our energetic adopted mix puppy who has grown rather large (80 lbs) and full of herself. It has helped to keep her more focused on walks. It seems to be holding up well, is easy to use, and works for us pretty much as expected. With our triple digit days we have been packing the saddle bags with reuseable freezer packs. If you are willing to take an extra couple of minutes to prep, I would recommend this item.
Great product July 30, 2008 Nelda M. Cotter (North Hills, California) I purchased this product not really knowing all what is out there in regard to dog backpacks. I found this product to be very versatile. You really just need to adjust the straps to fit the dogs. My only concern is that while the length of the bottom strap is long, I needed to put a large clip to avoid the hanging. Other than that, my dog has the look of confidence. The material is very good. My dog carries her waste bags, two bottles of water with plenty of room for other necessities. I do recommend this. Just remember to adjust the straps to fit your dog.
Saddlebag for Dogs May 10, 2008 lbeeba (Grove City, Ohio USA) Love this product. It fits perfectly on my Golden Retriever, and she loves carrying water bottles on our trips. The size of the bag is great because it is not too large or two small.
