🐾 Mountainsmith Dog Backpack Review

This dog package is very good. It is high quality and strong. One thing I would like to note is that sizing is a little tricky. I have a 48 lb Husky/German Shepherd mix and thought a medium sized pack would be perfect. Appropriate, but hardly. All belts are tightened as tightly as possible. We even measured their girth in advance. Thankfully we were able to get it to work, but our 45-pound pointer/healer mix can't carry it. We had to buy her a small size that fits her carrier size well…

I really like this bag. One of the reasons I ordered it is my previous experience with Mountainsmith. I have two of their other backpacks (the lumbar and the larger one I used when I was studying abroad). They are well made and very durable - which is what I was looking for in a dog backpack. And I agree with many other reviewers. Order one size smaller than you think you need. I have a small Aussie mix for my dog. She weighs about 44 pounds. A backpack can hold a lot of stuff, but if you have…

My dog and I have a love/hate relationship with this backpack. that I love him and he hates him. Well, he hates wearing it anyway. Once activated, it is ignored. He doesn't try to bite/chew it or roll it around to try and take it off. I throw some water bottles at him and he moves a lot more than usual. That's why I love it. A tired dog is a good dog. The only problem is that the size might not fit a little. Admittedly, my dog is oddly shaped: broad but very short, about 65 pounds and only 18…

I have a 1.5 year old clumsy over-the-top boxer mix puppy weighing 60lbs. My husband tried to help him get some of his energy out and started running with him but after a 3k run my husband got tired and the dog just got turned on! I remembered Cesar Milan talking about using a backpack for a dog to give him work while he went for a walk, so I started researching. I bought this pack based on the reviews and the price. My playful pooch took me for walks just fine, but with a backpack, he's a very

I have a 90lb German Shepherd that I walk 4-6 times a week and I'm tired of lugging water and other things with me. This backpack sits beautifully on him and he seems (oddly) to be enjoying it, if you can believe it, the day I got it I pulled it out and told him to sit down and he did and so did he let me put him on like any other pendant, he didn't fight or try to take him off in any way. It is quite large and for that reason I bought a medium sized backpack, the sizing for this item is…

For the past 4 months I have been using medium sized MountainSmith bags to rehabilitate my 83lb German Shepherd. The weight he can carry with backpacks has allowed him to regain much of the muscle he lost to injury about eight months ago. It is evident that the design of these panniers has been carefully considered. Material and workmanship are first class. Design features, including many large and small parts, make them as comfortable and flexible as possible. I can't think of a better basket…

I have a 47lb Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix (obviously he has loads of energy) and I ordered SMALL for this that fits perfectly. I think the environment would be too big. I'll try to post a photo as soon as possible. The quality of the bag is great! Doesn't feel cheap or flimsy at all. If it is broken/defective I will update this review. Let's assume it works well for now! This was not an instant fix for my dog's cravings or other bad habits (I rescued him from a shelter so he had a lot
