Good only if it stays on your back the whole time

The backpack's cool look isn't enough for me not to notice how bad its structure is. The pouch was constantly putting pressure on our dog, making it difficult for him to relax or even sit up. Unfortunately he was pushed so hard that he became nauseous and vomited in/around a very oddly placed tiny pocket on the inside front. This bag is also very difficult to clean and absorbs odors. Not satisfied - gladly again. Not suitable for air travel.

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Mostly good but...

Ideal for airport trips!

I travel a lot with my dog and carrier bags are heavy and don't usually fit well under the seat. This makes transport at the airport a lot easier and fits perfectly under the seat side can stretch out and feel more comfortable. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars and not 5 is that the magnets on the straps are weak which doesn't seem to be a problem but when you have them in your bag the weight pulls the front down letting it hang . . If the magnets were stronger, the straps would support the…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Don't reject him because he's not perfect for you.

I'm in love with this bag. While there can be a little heavy overtime (mainly because of the dog) and minor design flaws, the pros outweigh the cons. Apparently my dog loves this bag so much that we are now having a hard time getting him to walk. The bag is a bit bulky and we have to use a pillow to prop it up, but that's not a problem because it helps keep it from popping out. I also like the pockets in this bag as I can put all the important documents and other things my dog needs when he's…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Some cons

Great backpack!

I am very glad I bought this bag! My little puppy might even be happier :). We've had the bag for a week now. Although he didn't like it at first (he's claustrophobic), he couldn't wait to slip back into it once he realized the bag meant adventure. We went on a trip and the bag turned out to be very convenient. We could easily visit shops and restaurants and go on long hikes. I also take it to work every day so I like that the bag looks professional and has a laptop sleeve. It's really…

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

I really wanted to love this bag but it needs some work

I really wanted to love this bag. In terms of design, the shape design is very convenient to carry a small pet. Inside there's even a belt/necklace attachment and carabiner for a leash on the back. However, the praise ends there. This isn't a true backpack style, and twisting the mesh cover or top cover is awkward. In fact, the top flap kept opening without tightening it. I put my dog in there and she only weighs 9.8 pounds and barely reaches 13 inches (not counting the tail). However, she can…

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Some bugs

Commonly used

This is by far the most comfortable dog carrier we have. A few wishes: The inner leash is short, it is difficult for the dog to move. Her shoulder height is 12 inches. Since she is well behaved, I don't usually use this leash. When it arrived there was a smell of toxic vinyl, probably from the straps, bottom and side vents. I left it outside for a few days to release the chemicals. The pockets are useful but the laptop sleeve is too short for my Thinkpad X1 Carbon and I wish there was a better…

  • Free for educational purposes
