Is it comfortable for my dog?
Yes! Your dog sits in the “begging” position which is a natural stance for dogs and does not create any pressure points on healthy legs and spines. Your dog is also leaning up against your body which creates stability and comfort. Furthermore, we developed multiple strap systems that support the dog’s lumbar region, upper back and upper shoulders to allow as much freedom of movement as possible without sacrificing the snugness your dog needs. Based on veterinarian feedback we recommend that dogs not stay in the bag for any more than 45 continuous minutes. Although your dog may protest, he/she should have 15 minutes out of the bag for every 45 minutes in the bag.
Is it safe?
When used correctly, extremely safe. When we designed the K9 Sport Sack safety was our priority. The bag comes equipped with a “D” ring that clips to the dog’s collar as well as a system of safety straps that protect the occupant while offering structural and ergonomic support.
Is it adjustable?
Yes! Although this will not take the place of choosing the correct size, the K9 Sport Sack comes equipped with a system of cinch straps that secure the dog snuggly in the bag and limit the dog’s balance altering mobility.
Can my disabled dog ride in one?
It depends on the disability and condition of your dog. Please consult with your veterinarian if you have concerns about how the K9 Sport Sack may affect your dog’s condition. The K9 Sport Sack was designed for healthy dogs and accepts no liability for the exacerbation of disabilities.
Is the K9 Sport Sack Washable?
Yes. Hand wash with mild detergent and hand dry.
60-Day Limited Warranty.

I’m glad I bought this!
By Stephanie on Mar 30, 2021
I bought the medium size for my beagle puppy. I use towels in the bottom to give him a boost until he grows into it. His legs never stay in the arm slots, but he does seem comfortable in the bag. My main issue for giving 4 stars: I think there should be an option to use the D-ring in the back and the front of the bag — I feel like it would be better for my pup in the back. We might sew a loop in to make this happen. The side pockets are great and I wear it both ways —on my chest and on my back—depending on the activity. I don’t find the chest strap uncomfortable like others have said.

my puppy loves this!
By Gabie on Mar 27, 2021
I bought this for my 10 week old corgi puppy since he's not vaccinated yet and he loves it! I got the size large for him to grow into and also bought one of the booster blocks. It's still a little big so I also put in a rolled up towel and he's very comfortable! Also my original order got lost and Chewy customer service immediately sent me a new one that was delivered the next day. Super happy with my purchase

Pretty good
By MoeD on Apr 12, 2021
This is a pretty good backpack for my guy. ShihTzu, about 18pounds. It took us a couple times to get comfortable getting in and out of it. We spent 11 miles in it hiking our first weekend and my guy took to it much quicker than he does a bath! It only gets 4 stars because I'd like wider straps.

Good quality bag
By Mija on Apr 8, 2021
Got a large for our 28lb Frenchie. He’s just 8 months old but the large is good for his weight. Would recommend. Love that there a openings for his arms! We got it for him to ride one the motorcycle with us.

k9 sports pac 2 size small
By Nolasmom on Mar 28, 2021
My dog absolutely loves this carrier! I have a 6lb chihuahua, she will sit in this when she wants to go. So easy. She doesn’t get hot. And the bonus is it works like a calming jacket for her. No chi shakes, no panting, just totally chill. Had to add some memory foam in the bottom to make her taller.

Sizing Questionable
By Maere on Mar 21, 2021
I bought the large for my pug because she is a few pounds over the medium max weight...well I'm glad that I did because the large is pretty snug on her and seems smaller in size than I anticipated. I'm hoping to get her adjusted to riding in the backpack for hiking adventures on terrain unfriendly to her stroller.

Great product....high quality....
By Jazzy1 on Feb 16, 2021
I ordered the medium size for a 20-lb chiweenie. Perfect size without using blocks. Just roomy enough. A small size would have been too small for her. Durable, quality product. Worth the higher price, which I thought I might regret... but I didn't. Room for water bottle, doggie bags, Kleenex... Although, I do plan to buy another one....the large one with a detachable pouch for keys, etc

Extend your hikes, awesome product
By Backpack on Feb 28, 2021
our 1-year-old French bulldog is a champion when it comes to hikes, but a small dog his size does have his limits, which was about 4 mi at a time. He loves this backpack, I have found it very easy to get him into it, and we are now able to hike with him and have him with us on much longer adventures. Absolutely would recommend! He is 20 lb and I got the large. He does need a bolster in the bottom, I just stuff a sweatshirt or other gear that we need in there and that works fine for him.

This is so cool
By Haji on Mar 10, 2021
This is very well made and super sleek! I found this to be super Convenient for me to get back to my outdoor activities while my pup does not have all of his vaccinations. We have taken walks and even road my bike with him.

Extremely Happy
By Buster on Mar 15, 2021
We have a little fidgety fire ball pup and she loves this. The back pack works great and keeps her contained and secure on our hikes. Also Chewy's customer service and support is great and will keep us coming back
