Kurgo Big Baxter Dog Backpack, Dog Saddlebag, Dog Pack, Adjustable Saddlebag for Hiking, Walking, Running, Camping, Black/Orange

By far one of the best looking bags out there! Get lots of compliments and it just fits a athletic vibe for a dog. It has a nice stiff section for over the spine, and has multiple ways to adjust the straps. My dog is a little chunky for her height and this size will fit a huge range of weights.I can’t really rate comfort because I’m not a dog wearing it sooo all I can say is my dog doesn’t mind it at all.. so I say it’s comfy?I haven’t had anything break or rip, my dog can pull with power even at 50lbs, but I haven’t tested that fully, so for now it’s very durable.It’s nice having the dog carry their own poop bags and I can fit all my dogs booties for rocky sections. I wouldn't make her carry a water bottle, due to weight offset but you do you lol!I also don’t keep it super tight, due to walking sitting laying down etc, but it will shift side to side from pulling so people with OCD watch out lol.Overall I recommend vs paying double the money for a bag that does the same, and if something does rip you won’t cry too much,Enjoy!

Pros:Very sturdy design, unlikely to break or rip.Big Baxter model pockets will each hold a zip lock bag containing 8 cups of food, so the pockets are fairly large.The number of straps ensure that it generally stays in place, unless you severely unbalance one side with weight.Highly adjustable to fit very large dogs. I could see it fitting St Bernard's, Great Danes, and Mastiffs with no problem.Cons:The straps can be difficult to adjust while on the dog, as they are designed to not accidentally loosen.The description for Big Baxter says it will 50 lb dogs, my 55lb Boxer mix is almost too slender for the adjustments. It's still a little loose, but it works. It's really intended for the upper end of the size range they give.

It fits my 155lb Saint Bernard hiking buddy great but the saddlebags do like to slip down. I wish it had dual zippers because sometimes it’s hard to get into the corner to get it open. It does fit a couple small water bottles, a day’s worth of food, and doggy bags, which is what we were hoping for when he goes for overnight backpacking trips. The flaws are fairly minor considering it’s hard to find a backpack for a dog this size!

Love this pack. Great deal. My dog didn’t seem to like it too much at first but she loves it now. All the straps are adjustable and can be easily fixed to fit. The packs hold enough. Tho I haven’t loaded them and walked since my dog is a puppy. The attachment points for the Leash is metal and seems to hold up well. The one complaint my dog seems to have is she dislikes the straps hitting her stomach. She’s only 30 lbs right now so that will resolve itself when she grows more.Overall great product and worth it if you like walking outdoors. Just the added weight on her walk has tired my pup out for a few hours

The backpack looks very nice, well finished and sturdy. As a previous review mentioned, there is a small flaw, The bottom sternum strap is connected to the first chest strap by a sewn loop that is inconveniently located between the buckle and the plastic piece that you adjust the size with. This means that if you must make the chest strap longer, the bottom sternum loop is confined to a smaller and smaller space that is also not centered. Well... not worth the return. It's an easy fix. Cut the end of the strap and reorganize the plastic parts. I did it and now, I can adjust everything perfectly to my growing English Mastiff. I have a lot more room, for him to grow, than I thought. I think this backpack is going to last him quite a while. It took me a little bit of time to adjust everything perfectly (time to figured out how the straps worked). Now, my pup is all excited to go for a walk with his new bag.The pockets are pretty large and can accommodate 2 to 3 plastic bottles (depending on the size of it) for the big Baxter. I was wondering what the metal part was in front for, and once I read the label i found out it was a bottle opener 🤣

I really REALLY wanted to love this pack. It's less expensive than RuffWear and it has the look of a really solid dog pack. Unfortunately, many of the reviews about how the pack holds up on the trail are pretty accurate- the stitching for the front and back leash clips aren't strong enough to withstand a dog who might pull a bit on the leash. The front stitching came apart around mile 10 on our backpacking trip and we had to tie it back together without the metal clip so it would last until the end of the trip.I imagine this would stand up just fine if your dog was 100% cool on a leash, but my pup will always pull against a leash, front clipped or otherwise, when we're in nature and there's too much to explore.That being said, I really love the capacity of this pack and it fits really well as long as you balance out the side bags in terms of weight. If you aren't leashing your dog, this pack would probably hold up a lot better than it did for me.

I bought these for my three chocolate labs. I was hesitant that it seems to fit a wide range of dog sizes, but the number of places the backpack can be adjusted so that it fits just right is amazing. This of course required a lot of patience and treats for my 'willing' participants. My five month old puppy will be able to wear it her whole life and I have no doubt it will last that long. The saddle bags are roomy enough to hold food for several days, along with a couple of water bottles. I also liked the color options this came in. Having three 'identical' dogs means everything is color coded and I was able to purchase these is blue, red and purple; all three colors are gorgeous. My only complaint is this backpack is missing a port to dispense poop bags through.
