K9 Sport Sack Air Plus 2 Forward Facing Dog Carrier Backpack

I have a Basset Hound Australian Shepherd mix who loves to hike....for about a mile. Living in Washington the hikes are much longer and steep so this way he can walk as much as he wants and be carried when he’s tired. We’re working up to it. I also have to get in shape to carry him. We have scootered with him however, and he loved the wind in his ears. Once he’s zipped in, he doesn’t squirm. He feels very secure and very relaxed.

Very nice quality product, but just didn't work for our little pooch. She refused to keep her paws in the holes and didn't seem comfortable in the back pack position. Chewy was so great to let us keep the item and donate it to a local animal shelter. What a wonderful company with amazing customer service. Thank you!

My Cavalier and Cavapoo really enjoy riding in this backpack when they get tired on long hikes. It does ride a little bit high on my back, but the adjustment straps are easy to reach when they’re on your back which is nice. The pups seem very comfortable, and it’s allowed us to take them everywhere, especially on long hikes they wouldn’t be able to do otherwise!

My 7lb chihuahua mix loves this bag. I had to order the block for the bottom so she's more comfortable and sits upright. It's great for biking or long walks in the city. The added-on backpack is a bonus as we can carry her leash, treats, etc.

I bought this for my subway commute. Turns out that my dog was able to escape despite I buckled all the straps. It was just 2 stations and he must've felt hot and uncomfortable. Not to mention, setting up takes patience. I also got neck and back pain for all this mess.

My 17 lb dachshund absolutely adores this thing. We've been using it for about a year for long hikes. He eagerly steps up to it and arranges himself to be put in it. I put about a 2 inch bolster in the bottom along with a towel. I don't get how he fits in it but if I take out the bolster he is uncomfortable. It is a little awkward getting him on and off my back unless I have a table handy but we manage. As a vet tech I would not recommend this for dogs with back, hip, knee or neck problems.

Arrived next day and packaging was amazing. This back pack looks and feels heavy duty. It is really nice! Had my boyfriend try it out first, he said it felt very sturdy and was comfortable. We have a shih tzu that measures 17’ in length and chest size 18’ so following the size chart we ordered a medium. She is our little Texas size shih tzu weighing 16lbs. Was debating between a small or medium since she was borderline between both but glad we got medium. I think small would have been a little snugged, with the medium she has a little wiggle room. Can’t wait to take her on our adventures!

I did a li’l research & this pack was highly reviewed plus a good price (on sale at the time) so I took a shot. Was pleased with the quality of the pack & the attention to detail— ventilation + extra pack for storage + side pockets, clip for collar (carabiner of so-so quality), zipper plus a good-sized flap so pooch’s hair is free from snags. I really took a chance with purchasing a pack for my very sensitive, anxious, short-tempered senior boy—a 25lb 14 yo Lhasa who loves to be out & about but tires quickly these days. It took a few tries, practice, and a lot of patience (woof!) but we did it! I can’t say how readily or regularly we’ll be able to use this but it’s a relief that we were able I did a li’l research & this pack was highly reviewed plus a good price (on sale at the time) so I took a shot.

Ollie got in & I carried him for at least 5 blocks! I’m so proud! 4 stars I’d say for the style of the pack— it is excellent for perfectly-proportioned, well-behaved, anxiety-free pooches. … more

I have an aging pug who loves to go for long hikes and absolutely refuses to turn around until he’s pooped, so this is a lifesaver for long walks back to the car. It feels secure and he seems to be totally fine chilling in it along the way. I have yet to see how it is in hot weather (want to be careful he doesn’t get too hot back there), but for the first few uses, it’s been really great and it’s much more comfortable than other similar carriers I’ve used.

the bag has good storage, seems to fit my 25 pound dog fair comfortably, however it is NOT easy to get him in there without a second set of hands. also - considering the weight max is up to 40 pounds, there absolutely should be a waist strap to better distribute his weight. with my 25 pound dog on my bag i need to constantly shift around, hold the straps, etc to not make it super uncomfortable for myself.
