Review on JESPET Small Dog and Puppy Backpack Carrier - Ideal Soft Pet Carrier for Travel, Hiking, Walking, and Outdoor Activities with Family by James Wing

The best backpack for dogs. Backpacks

This backpack is well designed and well made. We want to go on a bike ride with our poodle mix. When standing, it measures 14 inches from neck to buttocks. When he sits, the distance from his front leg to the back of his hind legs is 11 inches and from his neck to his front paw is 14 inches. His weight is 14.5 pounds. So it's too big for a sling or basket but would probably fit in a tote or XL backpack. At first I tried wearing it in the front. I used a strap so he could stretch his legs through the holes and look ahead. Maybe my dog is too heavy or his body is too long, he needs to round his spine in the carrier and it doesn't look comfortable at all. Then we tried 2 different backpacks. It fits in the first one, but when I got up I felt its weight was uneven and the backpack didn't seem strong enough to hold it. The shape of the second backpack doesn't suit him at all, although it has the same dimensions as the first. Then I tried this one. It's round and spacious inside. I can sit my dog down with no problem. When he sits inside, his head is about level with the top edge. I can zip or unzip the top screen. When I tried to get up and walk, I didn't feel any weight at all. It provides good support for both me and my dog so it doesn't move and is much easier for me to carry. Yesterday we tested it on a bike. We opened the top screen so my dog could put his front paws on the top edge and stick his head out to look around. It was very nice and safe. As a dog owner who likes to take his little furry friend with me everywhere, I've spent a lot of time researching and trying out different products and this backpack is one you won't regret buying for your furry little one.
