Outward Hound PoochPouch Dog Front Carrier, Gray

Was fun and easy to adjust my dog is too small and sometimes I need my hands free and it helps his separation anxiety the bungee in the front while trying to adjust it smacked back and gave him a whack he don’t like it and chews on it often cause of it “attacking “him be very careful with it otherwise great and I use it every week

My maltipoo puppy weighs 8 lbs, so I figured size small of the PoochPouch carrier will be just fine for him. WRONG! The small sized carrier is really meant for teacups and not toy breeds. If your dog is under 10 lbs, BUT has a long body, this sized bag will not be a good fit. Wish Outward Hound would mention this in the product description.

I loved the way it felt and went on before putting my new puppy inside. Unfortunately, it did not work well at all. I purchased a size small, which said it was good for a dog up to 10lbs. My puppy weighs 4.6 lbs and was too big for the pouch. Also, the pull string to tighten at the opening did not lock and my puppy was able to push himself out. I'm still debating purchasing the larger size because I like the design and concept, but I'm concerned he will be able to pull himself out. I have a toy Havapoo.

Says for medium dogs up to 20lbs. My Westie is 20lbs so I thought I could be possibly snug compared to other reviews where owners have space to pack a blanket, but it s not really close at all to working. It hits at about the bottom of his rib cage when I put him in and I have to hold him for him to not fall out the front. The pic is pretty funny - but I hope it’s helpful to you if you’re ok the edge. Chewy was amazing in helping us get it returned to try something different.

I have a small chi that weighs only 5 pounds but has long, skinny legs. This pouch did NOT work for us. He kept trying to get out while shaking all the time. The clasps were very awkward to use as well specially with arthritic hands. I actually had a problem getting it off even after taking him out of the pouch.

My toy poodle is 8 lbs and an experienced pouch rider. The small pouch is far too small for her. Her bottom goes in but the neck cord is around her lower chest. And it is not big enough for her to lie down.

My sweet yorkie weighs 5.5 pounds. She is tiny and thin. This works for us and she didn’t seem to hate it. She fits well. I have little dogs blankets and will put one of those in there with her for comfort.

I had high expectations for this product. Price was great but pouch drawstring broke almost immediately. The arm straps slide off constantly when using as a front carrier. There is a waist strap but it really needs another strap below the shoulder blades across the back to keep them from sliding off.

I got this for my 10.5 lb Chihuahua-Terrier mix so he could take a break on longer walks/hikes. I bought the Medium-sized bag because the description said that is could hold dogs up to 20 lbs. My dog barely fit in this, so I can't imagine any larger/heavier dog fitting in this at all. Also, I can't imagine carrying a 20 lb. dog in this because of the way the thin straps are set up. I would think this would put too much weight on someone's shoulders/low back. My dog really disliked going in this because it was so snug on him (his bum squished against one of the sides uncomfortably). Once I had the backpack on, I couldn't put him in it on my own. It's not long or wide enough to fit his body comfortably I got this for my 10.5 lb Chihuahua-Terrier mix so he could take a break on longer walks/hikes.

It is, however, deep enough, so smaller dogs may not fit in this sized bag comfortably either, because the sides would be too tall for the dogs' heads to poke out. … more

First this was made for a very small petite person. I am 6’3 and 220 lbs. so the straps weren’t long enough to wrap around my body. Second it states it’s for dogs up to 12 lbs. I have a Shih Tzu puppy who weighs 8 pounds and it was too small for him. Unless you have a toy dog under 5 lbs and you are small framed, I would not buy this product.
