Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

There's no better way to spend a weekend than hiking with your dog, but it can get a little tiresome hauling gear for both you and Cosmo. Fortunately, now your pooch can carry his own food, water, and toys--and some of your gear as well--with this Mountainsmith dog pack. Available in three sizes, the pack is outfitted with an independently adjustable fleece-lined chest harness that fits most breeds comfortably, so your dog will barely notice the pack while walking or running. In addition, the pack offers plenty of storage space, with two large main compartments, zippered side pockets with rain flaps, and an internal valuables pocket. And thanks to the pack's D-ring attachment point, you can attach the leash directly to the pack for easier hiking. As a result, the Mountainsmith dog pack is perfect for everything from all-day and overnight outings to extended trips into town. Other features include a single haul handle on top of the pack, a mesh pocket along the top for stashing the leash, compression straps, and reflective trim.



The pack features an adjustable fleece-lined chest harness that fits most breeds comfortably.

5.0 out of 5 stars Make your dog work, September 15, 2007

This review is from: Mountainsmith Dog Pack (Apparel)
I ordered this backpack for my Wheaten Terrier after watching Cesar Milan (The Dog Whisperer). If you have a dog that needs to get out some extra energy, this is a good solution. You're walking your dog every day anyway, so let him or her carry some water, the waste bags, your cell phone, and your keys. You will enjoy the walk more, and he will tire a little more quickly. I would recommend you start with nothing in the backpack, just to let your dog get used to it. Then you can gradually add more weight. Just follow the recommeded weight restrictions for your breed of dog.

3.0 out of 5 stars not for long hikes, November 24, 2007
I would not use this pack for long backpacking trips. The pack does not use a y-yolk over the shoulders and does NOT place the bulk of the weight over the dogs shoulders. I do like the accessories (waterbowl, food bowl, thermal mat, and leash). However, I have to say I'm taking my Mountainsmith bag to a seamstress to convert the chest harness to a y-yolk and bring the bag more forward to put more weight over the front shoulders.

Dog owners with dogs who have long backs or a breed who have a tendency to get hip dysplasia later in life should NOT consider this backpack.

Mountainsmith should be ashamed for selling a product like this that increases the likelihood of causing lasting harm to dogs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect!, March 23, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Mountainsmith Dog Pack (Sports)
I listened to reviewers about the size to order and it was perfect! I ordered a medium for my 80+lbs weimaraner, 60lbs Boxer and 70lbs boxer mix. It fits them all and is awesome. We use it to tire them out more on walks. I look forward to camping with them at some point with it. There's lots of room in the pockets. Great buy!
