With that said... if you're a serious hiker... it's no Osprey -- which is to say, while this is unquestionably the best bag on the market for carrying a dog, it still pales in comparison to non-dog hiking backpacks. It could really benefit from a more sturdy frame to help better distribute the weight because my shoulders were absolutely killing me by the end of our 8 hour hike. While it can (and does) accommodate a water bladder, it lacks the little hook to hang the bladder on (an easy fix - hopefully it can be adjusted in the next version) so the weight of the water bladder is mostly distributed to the bottom of the bag. We are so happy to have found this bag so that our dog (14 lb shih tzu) can accompany us on long hikes -- just hoping the technology develops a bit further so that my husband and I don't have to draw straws for who has to wear it/her in the future! :)
Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2024
Kurgo support has been wonderful each time I have contacted them and the incredible staff has always far exceeded my expectations. Kudos!
Now for the pack itself. It is very well made. It is comfortable for the human and easily adjustable for both myself and my wife. Our 16lb dachshund mix liked it just fine - checking out the scenery rather than squirming.
TIP - make sure to use the harness clip as our pup lept through the front hole like a dolphin through a hoop when we first test fitted the pack on the ground.
I travel quite a bit and I take my dog wherever I go. I've researched and purchased an enormous amount of dog traveling gear. I currently I have 3 backpacks (including this one) in the trunk of my car. Depending on where we're going and for how long dictates which backpack to put her in.
I use this backpack mostly for traveling on planes and festivals/events. Sometimes I use this if I just don't feel like showing the BS "registered" service dog card or with places that don't adhere to service dog laws (ADA) like Chinese markets. I could hide my dog easily in this backpack. I shouldn't have to disclose that I'm Chinese, but I am in case anyone thinks I'm somehow being somehow racially biased by stating a FACT.
This backpack has so much room for my 7 pound dog that I can store up to two days worth of clothes, toiletries and my tablet. It's perfect for air travel because the backpack can be placed on the floor horizontally and there's plenty of room. I used to have a carrying case just for my dog when traveling so either I would bring another backpack with clothes or a luggage roller. Now, I can reach for my tablet, water for myself and my dog, and any other electronic items I placed in the bag.
I realized black is not an ideal color for summer outdoor events but there are a couple of things to consider when cooling down your pet.
First, there is plenty of room in the compartment between you and the dog to place a cooling pad. In fact, there's a 7" x 10" compartment right up against the animal compartment.
Second, I have two cooling blankets that I purchased for my dog. Even though it is freezing in my house, I was told by the vet that she shouldn't be breathing more than 30 times in a minute. The cooling blankets help a lot so I fold one and place it at the bottom of the animal compartment.
Kurgo really did a great job designing this bay. The only criticism that really doesn't mean much is the two rods that come with the backpack are useless. It takes up too much space in the animal compartment. So if your dog is in the 20 pound range, they're pointless.
That's pretty much it! If you made it all the way down here, you must be a pretty patient person.
