RuffwearPalisades Dog Pack, Multi-Day Hiking Backpack with Hydration Bladders, Red Currant, Large/X-Large

We have only completed a few test hikes of up to 7 miles in preparation for our first overnight. People at the Porsche car show loved it. We found there was ample room for his water, food, snacks, collapsible bowls, toys, a brush, towel, and booties. It did not seem to inhibit movement or agility. It was quite easy to get on and fit appropriately, as long as your dog can stay still got a few min.We’re looking forward to our first overnight with it and have no doubts it will perform well.Pros: easy to attach and remove saddle bags to harness, included water bottles, very spacious but not excessively large saddle bags, quality construction, burly handle on the harness for close handling and/or liftingCons: wish the harness had a loop near the chest for a leash like an easy walk harness, only one color option, it is very important to balance both saddle bags as to not have shifting of the saddle bags to one side (we knew this when buying due to reviews), cinching and retaining excess webbing could be easier

Tons of storage. I carry all of my dogs gear, food, water, and a few essentials for myself.My boy is about 60 pounds and lean and the harness fits great. We use it both with and without the saddle bags.My boy looks like he’s on a mission and the extra weight gives him an extra workout. Just be sure to fit it properly and balance the load distribution evenly.Really solid construction and surprisingly water resistant. Great pocket set up for organization. The included water bladders are fantastic.Super happy with this product. I highly recommend it.

I love these packs, I love the harness they come on. We hiked on the SHT for 10 days, with my pup wearing them for 6-9 hours of hiking each day. She carried some of her gear and some of ours. The packs are removable from the harness, which worked great, as she could rest without the weight and still have an easy grab if we needed to catch her. The zippers are sealed, and even in a torrential rain, wet crossings, and in tall wet grass, her contents stayed dry. It is worth taking the time to fit them, balance them, and pull the compression straps tight for best carrying, but honestly, I think we cared more than the dog did.The harness fits nicely and does not chafe my dog. The top buckle is sturdy and both the harness and packs are well marked with reflective tape for easy dog sighting in the dark. The handle on the harness came in really handy for helping her over terrain.The size chart is real. A Medium is what my 60lb Lab wears, and when she is really lean/ fit, the harness is loose on the snuggest adjustment.

This is a great pack for dogs. First, it can be used as just a harness or as a backpack. I like that feature for long hikes as I have the option of removing the saddle bags for water crossings, rough terrain, for short rest stops, and to keep my dog from wandering off when I tarp camp at night. The harness used alone is also great for getting a dog to used to wearing a pack (for those that are new to it). This pack has three pockets on each side. All the zippers close to the rear of the pack. So, the zippers should not open up as a dog is going through the woods. The zippers are also water resistant. Each side of the pack has a a row of webbing for attaching other things to the pack. The pack also has a compression strap for each side of the pack which keeps the bag compact when empty and keeps the load stable. It also comes with two soft 1 L water bladders which are actually very high quality. The harness has great padding, and it has not bothered my dog to wear this. The stictching and build quality is excellent throughout the pack.

Great little pack that can fit a lot. Definitely will work for a multi day hiking trip with my German Shephard. Just started training with her last week and after some adjusting the harness, which could have been easier, we were ready for some day hikes. Balancing the weight in the bags is essential but with 2 one litre soft water bladders it's pretty easy to do.I haven't used it long enough for a true durability test but she was rubbing up on trees and everything else not being used to her new pack size and they held up great. The one complaint I have is that the zippers face forward so when she accidentally rubs up against things they can be pulled open. Nothing that caused any real problems and if it's too annoying for you you can flip around the stable bags and it still works ok but blocks the top handle on the harness.All in all great buy for the price so long as we can get a few seasons out of it. This is the price of a mid level hiking backpack that I would expect the same from after all.

Trooper is a 100lbs German Shepherd. The l/xl pack fits him perfectly. I like that there are two straps that buckle around his chest for sturdiness and weight distribution. The saddlebags are roomy and made well. He has worn this several times now and hasn’t suffered any rubbing or chafing. He doesn’t mind wearing the pack at all. Plenty of strap length for adjustments to dial in a perfect fit as well. As far as the quality of the pack it’s a A+ I would like to see more color options from Ruffwear.

Nach einem knappen Jahr Verwendung bei Skitouren, in Korsika und auf mehreren Mehrtagestouren in Norwegen sind wir - und unsere jetzt 2jährige Flat Hündin - von dem Rucksack begeistert. Die Größe S passt unserer eher kleinen Dame (21kg) perfekt, da waren wir nach Lesen der Beschreibung unsicher. Mit Rucksack haben wir dem Hund ca. 1.5 kg zugemutet (Futter für drei Tage, Wasser, Napf, eine Decke zum Schlafen und Bademantel für kalte Nächte im Zelt). Das hat sie in keinster Weise belastet. Je voller der Rucksack, desto besser sitzt er. Leer rutscht er bei Verwendung einer Schleppleine schon mal zur einen oder anderen Seite. Gut, dass man bei Pausen den Rucksack vom Sicherheitsgeschirr abnehmen kann.

Très satisfait de ce sac résistant qui a fait ses preuves en randonnée. Regrette d'en avoir acheté d'autres avant

Ideali per trekking buona capienza costosi ma valgono i soldi spesi

Our German Sheppard doesn't mind using this pack. It calms him down, he is working, and he carries the stuff we need for a days walk. Woody is a big dog, 49 kilos. He can easily carry 10-15 kilos. We slowly increased the weight. I think 8 kilos is the most he had done. Lots of pockets, two water bags, it fits well, it is not falling off when he is running around. I got the impression that this product will last.

Taille M commandé, Taille S reçu. La capacité du sac est seulement la moitié de cela sur la description du produit.Bon qualité mais système compliqué.Après de retourner J'ai reçu le remboursement du produit mais plus difficile de récupérer l'affranchissement.
