Ruff Wear Approach II Dog Pack

This pack was a lifesaver when we did the Four Passes Loop in the Maroon Bells. Our red heeler packed her own stuff! The pack fit her great and it didn't shift like the larger one that our border collie was wearing. The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is because I thought that the bags could use some bungees to shrink them down so they're not so bulky. I could always hear the dogs rounding trees and rocks. Otherwise, great product and would definitely recommend it!!!

Overall, It carried everything I needed for my dog, but I think the pockets should come of so that you can use the harness part alone for hiking or long walks. The handle at the top of the backpack that allows you pick up the dog is good because it make your dog a lot easier to manage if you are out hiking.

use it to tire out my pomeranian. he loves wearing it on walks (gives his life some purpose, ha ha)

A nice addition to outings, gives the dogs a job to do while walking, providing them with focus. I bought this one because I was so pleased with the one I bought last year for my other dog.

I bought this pack to use on my Chihuahua/Min-Pin mix. She seemed to like the pack immediately and we loaded some food and other fairly light weight items into the pack. The harness fit well, but was at the limit of adjustability for the XXS size. Of course, Pepi only weighs 8 pounds, so it's not like we are loading her up with 3-4 pounds of gear. The construction materials and sewing is bomb-proof. Super heavy thread count Cordura and double and triple stitched bar tacks and seams.
