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.

Extend your hikes, awesome product
By Backpack on Feb 27, 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.

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

Great for easy transport of pups!
By Coko on Dec 30, 2020
I bought mine based on size of my puppy when he’s full grown (he’s a 5 month old corgi, so I bought a large). It’s pretty big for him, but I stuff the bottom with a towel or blanket and it still works - just need to make sure all the straps are secured and tight! My dog hates his harness and leash, but is surprisingly ok with me stuffing him in this sports sack. He seems to really enjoy seeing the world from “my point of view” (higher up). I use it when I go on longer hikes or walks and he gets tired, or taking in stores when I’m worried he’ll be too distracted.

Amazing for travel
By Meili on Feb 8, 2021
I got the medium size for my jackrussel whippet who is about 23lbs and it's perfect. She's a little scared to get in, but then loves it. Traveling around, people are more likely to let her in a store in it.

Comfortable for dog, not for human
By Sierra on Dec 6, 2020
I was hoping to use this pack as a way to safely take my puppy with me to new places before he was fully vaccinated. It isn't super easy to get on a squirming puppy, but once he was in, it was great. The problem however is the quality of the pack and the poor weight distribution. Even for a 15lb dog, this needs to have more support and a hip belt/waist strap. It was painful to carry on my back and kept slipping too low for puppy to be able to see over my shoulder. Wouldn't recommend, sadly, because the concept is great.

Chewy Customer Service is GREAT
By Shikha on Nov 24, 2020
This thing isn’t the most comfortable for my pup but she’s not really a “carry me around” kinda gal so that’s not really a criticism of this bag. It’s well made and definitely keeps your pup well contained with no danger of them falling out (even if they’re wiggling). I do however have to give a HUGE shoutout to Chewy customer service though, not only did they give me a refund but they told me to just donate the bag rather than send it back. Love it!

Super fun and good quality!
By KarlaO on Jan 8, 2021
We like this backpack and our dog feels pretty secure. The chest strap is not the most comfortable but other than that, we love the backpack. Our Havanese is only 14.5 lbs

Best Pet Carrier
By Anya on Feb 13, 2021
This is perfect for my mini-dachshund. I've tried other carrier bags and this is the most comfortable for both me and my pet.

really good
By bowtiebiker on Sep 16, 2020
We have been using this a lot lately due to some knee arthritis and my pup will willingly get into it (a treat or two doesn't hurt). But I found the ergonomics of it difficult to fit my body and there was a lot of pressure on my shoulders. There wasn't a waist strap that could have been used to relieve the pressure. We just went on a hiking vacation and actually put him in this Sack and then put him into a regular day pack and it worked great and was much more comfortable. He is very happy just hanging out back there and he lets me know when he wants out or back in.

K9 backpack
By backpack on Oct 21, 2020
Highly recommend this backpack , it’s really well made , make sure you size your little pupper before ordering! The first one I got was too big, so I ordered a small one . Chewy issued me a refund and told me to donate the wrong sized one to a shelter ! Chewy is a great company!
