Review on Outward Hound Kyjen Excursion Dog Backpack: Superior Quality for Canine Adventures by Heather Oliver

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Dog Tested, Dog Approved

Overall this product worked well for my 30kg Boxer/Husky. I was a bit nervous after reading some of the other reviews but still hope that like many products sometimes you pull out a short stick and end up with a defective item. I haven't drawn a short stick yet. This may be because I am using the product as intended and not doing things like tying the leash to the handle (not intentional). despite the mesh, but that happens whenever you put something on the dog or even yourself. Therefore, I do not consider this a big minus, but some like it. The size chart provided is not the best guide for all dogs. I say this because Wyatt is very lean and his weight is muscle and not fat so I think I should have ordered a size down. I can tighten it without hurting it, but the back end moves a little. Because of this, I would not recommend long hikes or runs with this item. I'm only saying this because friction can harm an animal, or at least make it unhappy. I know I ran Camelback and paid the price for not being tight enough on my back. Pros: - Wyatt doesn't mind carrying two bottles of water, some treats, car keys, wallet, dog bags and other similar items; nor the seams of the product. This stitching looks exactly like any other stitching I've seen on human backpacks. As long as you don't overload and connect external things you don't want attached, the product won't fail, or at least not for me. Numerous pockets and pockets within pockets are definitely positive. Tired of looking for your keys? This product comes with a clip that I attach mine to (inside a main pocket) - There are plenty of padded and breathable sections for what you can expect while maintaining structural integrity - There are multiple adjustment points allowing for different body shapes . fitting (although consider my negative for size). - It does what it is advertised to do.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Negative
