The bag looks comfy for my puppy (4month old bichon), the bag quality is great and comfortable for me on the bike. Although, not sure how safe it is if you want to leave the bag open for your dog. My puppy was trying to jump many times and I hope she stops over the time, because I had to stop the bike a few times. I wish there was a net under the black fabric (the one we open so they can keep their head out) so she wouldn’t be in the dark when I have to close the pocket, for safety. I am not really sure about the value for money… but the quality is really good!
Meine kleine wiegt weniger als 3 kg und verschwindet fast in dem Rucksack. Ich nutze ihn zum Wandern und beim Einkauf. Edeka lsst mich so rein, da sie wirklich nichts anstellen kann.
So far my second one hasn’t had the same problem with the waist strap so I can only assume it was just that one bag!
I bought this for my Chihuahua cross Miniature Pinscher (for reference he’s just under 3kg and his back is 13 inches long!) He has loads of space in the front section and can lie down, doesn’t seem to have issues with the support rods (which are very fiddly to get in, but if you slide the too end in first it’s much easier to get them in place!).
He is a touch too short to use the main vent window on the front but that works for me as he’s Satan personified and likes to bark at anything he deems unfit, so the less he can see the better
There is a clip to keep them attached to the bag,so far he hasn’t chewed through this and he hasn’t been able to make his bid for freedom when I’ve opened the bag at any point.
The side pockets hold an average sized water bottle ok, though since they also form part of the venting system I would be tempted to stash my water in the main compartment on an overly warm day.
The main compartment has plenty of space, I managed to cram a box of trainers in there (EU 38 size of anyone wants an idea of the box size ) and my dog still had enough room to be carried comfortably. I find the only issue I have is when I am adding coats and things, they tend to encroach on the “living space” but not enough to severely impact the dog space.
The shoulder straps have a couple of adjustment points and are well padded, I’ve worn the bag for a couple of hours straight and not felt overly uncomfortable. The waist strap could do with more padding, it only has minimal padding at the sides, which is fine for 10-20 minutes but after that I wish it has more as it does start to dig in a little and become uncomfortable, though bonus that this has 3 adjustment points.
The base of the bag is great, it’s like a bag stick to a box, doesn’t fall over when you put it own with the dog in, doesn’t get wet and soak through and is easy to wipe down, it can dig into your back if you set the shoulder straps too tightly but I’ve found if I adjust the top straps it sets it back to a better and more comfortable angle.
The only issues I have with this is that it doesn’t come with a waterproof cover,so when out in heavy rain it gets drenched and starts to seep into the bag,I solved this buy buying a generic cover, so far my little rat hasn’t suffocated
I have only used this for hiking,not as a dog carrier in a vehicle but I did double check how the seatbelt would go through and it went through fine.
I personally wouldn’t want to carry a dog too much heavier than mine in it for long periods, especially in warm weather where I needed to also carry water but for a dog around his weight,it’s fine and comfortable enough to wear for hikes!
sehr bequem, sehr flexibel anpassbar, hund wird dadurch beim radeln durch das eigene abfedern optimal gedmpft, im gegensatz z.b. zu einem am rad befestigten korb. lange ebike-touren oder harte wanderung mit kleinem hund. einfach perfekt. bester kauf. im ICE dann einfach quer als Tasche benutzt. Zur not klappe zu und heimlich mit hund was im supermarkt kaufen, wenns sein muss
Optisch ein wirklich netter Rucksack, robust verarbeitet. Leider wurde die auf den beiliegenden Zetteln angepriesene Futterprobe in unserem Paket vergessen….
Der Boden hat die perfekte Stabilitt, dass Hund sich wohlfhlt und nicht verunsichert wird.
Wir nutzen den Rucksack zum Radfahren, wenn der 6kg Terrier dann doch mal eine Pause braucht. Dieser scheint von dem Komfort des Rucksacks auch wirklich berzeugt zu sein 🙂
Allerdings sollte man sich bei seinem Hund schon recht sicher sein, dass dieser auch whrend man in Bewegung ist, im Rucksack verbleibt, da die Mglichkeit besteht, dass der kleine Liebling sich durch die Guckffnung selbststndig macht…
Alles in allem aber sonst eine wirklich gut umgesetzte Mglichkeit seinen Hund immer dabei zu haben 🙂
There are lots of inexpensive options for carrying a small dog, but you get what you pay for. This backpack is more expensive, but it is the only real option if you plan to hike or carry your pet for walks over any kind of distance. It also acts as a dog carrier. I use it to carry a 14 lb. Multipoo for several miles / hours at a time. Backpack is of high quality materials and workmanship and provides a stable, comfortable solution for carrying your pet. A great product.
Ich hoffe, das er eine gute Qualitt hat, nicht nur auf dem ersten Blick. Mein Hund kann alleine rein und raus, was sehr wichtig ist.
Und er fhlt sich auch sonst ganz gut drin. Nur die ffnung ist etwas hoch , er muss immer sitzen-beim liegen, sieht er nix mehr.
Auerdem die Stabilittsstbe sind ohne Schutz im Innenraum befestigt. Ich hoffe, das das nicht zur Strung des Wohlbefindens des Hundes fhrt.
Lngerer Aufenthalt ist noch nicht ausprobiert worden-kommt noch. Aber ich bin guter Hoffnung.
Il mio pesa 8kg e per la mia schiena troppo. Utile l’idea di poterlo trasformare in trasportino con una comoda maniglia, inserendo gli spallacci nelle apposite tasche.
Pu quindi essere usato anche in aereo.
Non solo lo spazio per il cane, ma anche un altro vano dove riporre indumenti, o un computer. Comode taschine interne.
Gancio interno per mettere in sicurezza il vostro cucciolo.
Lo zaino arieggiato ai lati con delle finestrelle laterali a retina.
Ai lati ci sono anche due tasche a retina dove riporre eventuali bottigliette per l’acqua.
Unica nota negativa i due bastoncini di metallo che vanno inseriti nel vano di accesso del cane, per renderlo ancora pi rigido.
Non esistono istruzioni per il montaggio, da parte della Kurgo, me lo ha spiegato invece una persona che l’aveva scoperto su un video in internet.
My dog loves this bag. We’ve used it a few times now for day hikes. He’s 10lbs and it distributes his weight so much better than the tote style carriers Ive used before. I love the different pockets and have been able to fit everything I need. I would mention that anything you put in the laptop side does impede on the dog sitting side, so I usually make sure everything is packed flat. We only use it as a hiking bag and I think Id get something different for an airline bag. I dont think there is enough headspace for him if he was fully zipped inside, since it does taper. Overall good quality and Ive been recommending it to people I see on the trails.
Ich habe den Kurgo fr unseren Terrierwelpen gekauft, damit er mitkann wenn wir mit der groen gehen.
Er konnte uns dadurch berall hin begleiten, gewhnte sich gleichzeitig daran Pausen zu haben und getragen zu werden (wer wei wofr das noch ntzlich sein kann!)
Der Rucksack ist toll verarbeitet, gut gepolstert, und der Hund kann darin gut sitzen. Wie man auf den Fotos sieht, wird es mittlerweile eng. Der Welpe hat jetzt 8kg, der Tragekomfort bleibt gleich.
Der Hund ist im Rucksack am Brustgeschirr gesichert- allerdings muss ich den oberen Ring am Nacken dafr nehmen, da mein Hund sonst zur Hlfte raus kann.
Toll ist auch, dass berall kleine Laschen sind woran man zB. faltbare Npfe befestigen kann.
Ich liebe den Rucksack und wrde ihn an alle Welpenbesitzer weiterempfehlen.
Have been using it for about a month now with our kitten, and I really like it. Kepler (cat) took a while to get used to not wanting to jump out, but is fine now. The hip belt could be a little lower, it sits above my hips, on my husband it sits mid back. The straps are comfy with lots of adjustments. In terms of space its a winner, means we can take the first aid kit with us, a drink bottle for both the cat and myself and i can pack a raincoat and lunch in the compartment separate to where the cat is sitting. It does though make his space smaller. He seems ok with it. It worked well on a mid length hike 6km, i didn’t get a sore back, which is important to me. There are a couple of rods inside that reinforce the pack, i kind of wish these were built into it and were sitting in their own sleeves or something like that. Overall, we are happy with it, it will be interesting to see how we go once the cat is full size at 6kg, but that has nothing to do with the way the pack is designed.
Dog loves this. He’s a very high energy dog and now that we live in Hawaii we do a lot of hikes. This backpack is perfect and great quality. If I was a dog I would def jump in this bag too. Hikes are super easy, he’s comfortable and there’s so many compartments to put your own stuff in. Definitely worth the purchase
So first off, my mini Weiner/Pekingese dog didn’t like it at first. It was hard to put on with him in it. That said, I just shifted it around and wore it in front while he rested up on our hike.
When not used as a dog pack, I put a camera insert inside of it and have quick access to my DSLR and lenses. There is plenty of room to use it as a regular backpack also. I can carry water, treats, extra gloves, maps, and a tripod while hiking. The rubber bottom is priceless. I can set the pack down in snow, mud, and wet grass without the interior getting wet.
So it has become my go to backpack now.
The waist band is a lifesaver for my back!
Nothing to dislike!! It’s fabulous! And my dog loves it!!
I’ve tried a few different options. This one is the best for both my dog and I. It’s comfortable, has room for extra stuff. I use it to run errands while walking my dog, or go to places so I don’t have to leave my dog home for a long time.
My dog would beg me to put him in the backpack it’s the cutest thing so I have to write this review.
For reference, I have a mini golden doodle weights about 19lb. The small backpack is perfect. He looks cozy in there.
Der Rucksack macht auf mich einen sehr wertigen Eindruck. Der Tragekomfort ist optimal.
Ich fhle mich bestens ausgerstet fr die nchste Wanderung.
Our dog loves this. We’ve taken her out a couple of times in it and she seems really content. Look forward to taking her on some winter hikes
Unterwegs habe ich noch ein Kissen mit drin, denn sie ist sehr neugierig und versucht nach vorne zu schauen. Damit ist ihr Hals besser abgepolstert.
Sie ist 7 kg schwer und 45cm lang. Sie hat bequem Platz und wie gesagt, mit Kissen ist es noch etwas besser ausgepolstert fr sie.
Bin sehr zufrieden auch mit der Einteilung der kleinen Taschen. Ich kann alles mitnehmen und noch unterbringen. Wenn sie nicht drin ist, kann man ihn auch als normalen Rucksack zum einkaufen verwenden.
Man kann den Rucksack auch bequem auf den Bauch schnallen, so kann sie besser nach vorne schauen. Der Sitz ist ebenfalls bequem, da brauchte ich nur etwas Hilfe beim anschnallen der Bauch und Brustschnallen.
Beim wandern/ klettern ist es sehr ntzlich, dass die Tasche eine sehr feste Bodenschale hat, so kann ich mich auch beim absteigen mal hinsetzen ohne Angst zu haben, dass ich sie hinten drin zerquetsche.
Also ich bin sehr zufrieden. Echtes Multitalent.
After seeing an adventure cat have this bag on Instagram, I knew I had to get it for my adventure cat in-training.
Initially he was spooked by it, tried to climb out of it. Luckily there is a clip to keep him in place. Now he loves it. It’s spacious, sturdy, and so comfortable. I did wonder if I’d find it difficult to hike with this extra weight on my back, but there’s so many ways to adjust the bag to make it feel so comfortable. I sometimes wear it in the front and clip it on the back and even that is comfortable. Definitely worth the investment.
Ich suche schon lange nach einer geeigneten Transportmglichkeit fr lngere Wanderungen und/oder unwegsames Gelnde/Kletterstiege.
Meine Hndin hat eine Schulterhhe von 32cm/6.3kg, mein Rde 34cm/5.5kg.
Fr beide ist ausreichend viel Platz vorhanden, so dass sie sich auf mal drehen knnen. Von der Hhe her ist der Rucksack absolut in Ordnung. Beide knnen bequem sitzen und dabei rausschauen, ich denke, ggf. kann die Hndin auch liegen.
Im Rucksack selbst ist noch ein Gurt zum Anschnallen sowie an den Seiten Meshgewebe damit die Hunde nicht berhitzen. Das gefllt mir im Hinblick auf warme Sommertage sehr.
Der Rucksack hat noch ein weiteres Fach, in dem man z. B. Handtuch oder Pulli packen kann. Da die Trennwand zum Hundesepare aber weich ist, wollte man nicht zu wulstige Dinge einpacken, damit der Hund bequem sitzen kann.
Der Boden besteht auen aus einer wasserundurchlssigen Kunststoffwanne, die es dem Hund aber ermglicht stabil zu sitzen und nicht durchzuhngen.
Ansonsten macht der Rucksack einen sehr wertig verarbeiteten Eindruck.
Einen Stern habe ich abgezogen, weil die Trger besser gepolstert sein knnten. Das gleiche gilt fr die Polsterung des Hftgurtes. Einen 11kg Hund mchte ich damit nicht tragen und selbst 5kg werden mit der Zeit schwer.
Ansonsten der beste Rucksack fr Wanderungen, den ich bisher hatte.
I purchased this for me and my Parson Russell pup Daisy. She is currently 8 weeks and weighs 2kg. It is a little big for her but she will grow, I have padded the bottom with a rolled up blanket.
Honestly she really enjoys being in there, she climbs in herself and she enjoys all the attention and little treats she gets whist in it (to build a positive association). She has her last vaccinations at 12 weeks, so I bought this to carry her out in on walks, to ensure she is socialised during these important few weeks. It keeps her cost, warm and dry, and if she gets tired she can sleep in it. It is pretty chew-proof but I do take a chew toy abs her sleeping blanket with us to mouth instead of the bag. I carry her at my front currently , but when she is older and we go on longer walks I hope she will be well behaved enough to go on the back way, as that would be more comfortable for me! I absolutely love walking and hiking but a young dog won’t be able to do this until full grown, so I hope to be able to gradually build up to longer walks (of a couple hours) where she can walk and sniff around for some periods and then come up for a rest. This is important to avoid injuring your growing pet, if you are like me and are itching to get out on the trails with your new pup, please consider that and be prepared for shorter hikes for the first year, and to be carrying him/her for some of the time. A new puppy is the perfect time to introduce being carried, and you will have the added benefit of being able to safely take them places with you and giving them a wide variety of positive experiences. 🙂 it is pricey but the quality of this bag is definitely worth it, I will be using this for years (long after little daisy needs to be carried), as it makes a good sturdy hiking backpack.
Thought this was a bit expensive but it did look the best quality after looking at various rucksacks suitable for carrying small dogs and it is excellent quality. I can fit my shitzu sized dog in quite comfortably. I bought it because we go on long walks and after about 15 miles he can get a bit sick of walking- he only has little legs after all- there is also a fair bit of room for other things you might need to take on a hike with you, it is well padded and the bottom is solid making it more comfortable for dog, however, this makes it a heavy rucksack even when empty but it is very comfortable to wear even with dog inside.
Very pleased so far! We’ve been wanting this bag for awhile. Our dog is about 12lbs and he’s a mix of min pin, chihuahua, and dachshund. It’s very roomy with just him in it. Seems to disperse the weight very well but we’ll see when we have a fuller pack navigating the trails.
We’ll have to keep working on positive reinforcement to get him to hop in on command.
Great dog carrier for long walks with our puppy and other dogs. To make it more comfortable to wear the hip belt needs to be more substantial.
Wir gehen viel wandern mit 3 Yorkshire Terrier und unsere ltere Dame musste oft zu Hause bleiben! Wir hatten zwar schon einen Rucksack, der war aber fr lngere Wanderungen nicht geeignet , da er sehr schmerzhaft im Rcken sa ! Dieser Rucksack ist unser neuer Hit !!! Gut anpassbar auf den jeweiligen Trger der perfekte Rucksack fr unsere Pixi !!!!
Oh how I wish my dog would have fit!
A very comfortable backpack to wear. The body straps fit nice, and the upper straps let you snug it close to your body.
Timber is 40 lbs of stocky meat. A pitbull/schnauzer mix. She is just a little too tall for this pack. However I still give it 5 stars for Alaskan adventures. It does get a bit warm in there with all the padding if your planning on being somewhere warm climate.
Ich benutze den Rucksack um meinen Labradoodle Welpe 6,5 kg (10 Wochen) und meinen Havaneser zu tragen – je nachdem wem der Weg grade zu lang wird.
Nach langem Suchen konnte ich auch die Schlaufen finden in der die Stangen befestigt werden – Foto anbei…
Meine Hunde fhlen sich wohl und es bleibt auch noch Platz im extra Fach fr Getrnke und Sitzunterlage
Hab den Rucksack fr lange Wanderungen mit meinem lteren Jack Russel (ca. 8,5 kg) gekauft. Hab ihn daheim langsam daran gewhnt drin zu bleiben und was soll ich sagen es klappt super! Wenn der Kleine zum Ende der Wanderung nicht mehr kann, kommt er in den Rucksack. Mit der richtigen Einstellung der diversen Gurte sitzt das Ding -auch mit Hund- super. Auerdem sieht der Rucksack schick und sportlich aus. Ich bin sehr zufrieden!
This backpack is a quality item. I had another brand that was useless because the floor where the dog sat would fall to your feet making it uncomfortable for the dog. (I returned it.) This pack has a well supported floor and also has fiberglass supports that hold the packs shape so airflow through the pack is no problem. If you want the pack flat, they are removable. It is well made and I have no fear of it breaking when carrying my pouch. It is a heavy duty pack. I purchased the red pack for visibility on the road when biking and I also though it would stay cooler. There was a lot of thought and care that went into this pack. The company really thought about the end user. A+ product!
Dog absolutely loves it, shes about the size of a jack russell and getting on a bit. She can’t walk as much as she was six months ago so this is perfect.
It isn’t cheap but then quality normally isnt!
I think it’s a little pricey but once you get it you will be glad you paid a bit extra
Best we have found yet. Would be better with extra padding all the way round to the front of the hip bone area on the hip belt, for extra stability and comfort.
It was roomy enough for my 9 lbs morkie but he wasn’t really a fan. And he was too short to see out the top. And as I said, it’s a big bulky and heavy back pack, the plastic like part on the bottom also dug into my back.
I purchased this pack at the recommendation of a friend who has a Pomeranian he takes on all his adventures. I figured it would be an excellent choice for me and my chihuahua fur baby when we go on our own hiking and traveling excursions. The pack is roomy and holds not only my dog but her leash, treats, water, appropriate clothing and some toys. There’s plenty of room for me to add my own snacks, water, maps and any layers I might need when we hit the road. It’s durable and offers me plenty of options for tailoring our supplies to fit whatever adventure awaits us.
Auch wenn der Rucksack fr unseren 9kg schweren Dackel-Mix (lange Beine :)) leider zu klein ist, sind wir von der Qualitt und dem Tragekomfort berzeugt. Unser Hund htte ihn gemocht, aber wie gesagt, leider etwas zu klein. Fr einen kleineren Hund wrden wir ihn sofort wieder kaufen!
Der Rucksack ist super verarbeitet, macht einen sehr stabilen Eindruck und ist optimal einzustellen bezglich des Tragekomforts. Lediglich der synthetische Geruch direkt nach dem Auspacken ist etwas unangenehm. Der verflchtigt sich aber nach ein paar Tagen immer mehr. Jetzt kommt das groe ABER……… Der Rucksack ist ausgelegt fr Hunde bis 11 kg. Das schafft er auch keine Frage! Aber fr den Trger ist das schon eine Aufgabe, max. 11 kg Hund + Rucksack zu tragen. Unser Hund mit 9,5 kg hat von der Gre her super in den Rucksack gepasst. Nur beim mehrmaligen Probetragen in der Wohnung haben wir entschieden, dass so viel Hund auf dem Rcken fr eine lngere Wanderung definitiv zu schwer ist. Aus diesem Grund haben wir den Rucksack zurckgegeben. Wir denken aber, etwas besseres fr leichtere Hunde ist wohl kaum zu finden. Absolute Kaufempfehlung.
Der Rucksack ist wirklich solide verarbeitet und bietet ziemlich viel Platz fr den Hund.
Pelle hat 9 Kilogramm und passt gut hinein.
Der groe Vorteil ist, dass der Rucksack aussieht, wie ein Rucksack und nicht, wie eine Tragetasche fr Hunde.
Das Gewicht verteilt sich Dank Hft- und Schultergurt gut, so dass auch eine lngere Strecke gegangen werden kann.
Nachteilig finde ich den fr uns zu hoch angesetzten Ausschnitt zum Rausschauen.
Dennoch klare Kaufempfehlung.
Toll verarbeitet, allerdings Eigengeruch.. Wenn ich mir vorstelle, dass Hunde einen um das vielfach besseren Geruchssinn haben, stellt sich die Frage, ob das gesund ist fr die Vierbeiner.
Leider muss ich besttigen, was in einer der Rezessionen erwhnt wurde. Dieser Rucksack ist nichts fr groeere Menschen. Bin 1.73 und damit ist der Hftgurt nicht mehr auf der Hfte (Gewicht kann dadurch nicht verteilt werden). Ausserdem drckt Rucksack in die Lendenwirbelsule. Sehr, sehr schade !
My dog is 9lbs and I was able to carry him in the backpack. The backpack is not light but not too heavy either. My dog looks he is comfortable. I put a treat in the backpack so he would go in at home to get him comfortable. Then I zipped him up and carried him in the house. When we went to hiking, we put him in the backpack when he seems tired. We did that few times and he is totally used to the backpack and he almost fell asleep the last time he was in.
Seul bmol, pas assez d’arations. Donc par temps chaud pour un chien a poils longs c’est un peu compliqu.
Un peu plus de mesh notamment sur les cts et il serait parfait !
It would be nice if this bag came in some earth tone colors.The bag itself is kind of heavy but I guess that is to be expected if you’re gonna carry a 25 lb dog in it.The bottom is all rubber and there are many pockets.It works okay.
I have a dog with a neurological disorder and blindness. I can’t tell you how long I’ve looked for a backpack to fit all my hiking necessities AND my pup. She’s a little small so I Just put a yoga block in the bottom of her compartment (great idea from a video review I watched) and she is perfectly comfortable and can see out of the opening. She can finally go with my pitty and I on our day hikes. Thanks Kurgo!
Unser Jack Russel hat super hineingepasst. Man kann ein kleines Fenster auflassen. An den Seiten und auch am Fenster (wenn geschlossen) ist der Rucksack gut gelftet. Der Rucksack hat mehrer Taschen. Somit kann man ihn gut auch fr andere Dinge nutzen. Wir hatten ihn mit in sterreich zum Wandern. So war der Hund immer sicher z.B. beim Besuch einer Klamm oder im Sessellift.
Outfit und Tragekomfort wie bei einem normalen Rucksack. Das war mir wichtig.
We took our 11 lbs Maltese on a 5700 mile road trip across ten states visiting five National Parks and various state parks, national forests and monuments. This backpack attracted lots of wows and why didn’t we think of it. It is well designed after we figured out how to adjust the straps for optimized support.
Most National Parks do not allow pets but we encountered many rangers who allowed us except for two. It really depends on the place and the potential risks to wildlife and your pet. It beats having to leave your pet in the cars as I saw many others did.
This bag exceeded my expectations. It is not your average dog backpack. It is well stitched, shoulder straps are extra padded so they won’t be digging into your shoulders on long hikes. The bottom is made of some type of solid, durable rubber to provide stability for your dog to sit on while in the bag. This bag did not cut any corners and includes all the bells and whistles. However, I did return. My dachshunds LOVES to hike with me. He is usually good for about 5-6 miles EXCEPT when is is 100+ degrees outside (Texas). I was looking for a bag that I could take hiking and put my dog in it for 15-20 minutes every hour or so. Just to give him a short rest while I still hiked. This bag was bigger than what I wanted to carry 3/4 of the time empty. If I was carrying my dog most of the time I would of kept it, but I went with a K9 Sport Sack instead just because it did not have the solid bottom so it takes up 1/4 the space. But when my dog gets to where he can no longer do the long hikes I will definitely be getting another Kurgo Backpack.
This is a fantastic product and perfect to use for hiking. My small 10lb Japanese Chin loved it! Safe transport, comfortable for both human and dog. Has sufficient straps and pockets and the mesh sides help with ventilation. The reason why I did not give full 5 stars is the high price point and stability – the backpack comes with two rods that are supposed to help with stability. However, even when threading them through the indicated loops, they keep slipping out and are kind of “in the way” of the main transport compartment. It seems like it could be an easy fix for the manufacturer, so hopefully they’ll come up with a newer version soon.
The pros so far: Well made and durable, can be used as a backpack or carrier, has support rods, has a hard bottom, back, chest and hip straps have lots of adjustments that can be made for comfort, super roomy, lots of pockets for snacks, soft bottom cover inside (where the dogs butt sits) is removable and easy to clean.
The cons so far: It’s about 98 degrees here with over 80% humidity so its HOT. No matter how vented the pack is, I don’t recommend keeping your dog in there for several hours without cooling breaks or using a cooled dog towel frequently. I recommend clipping the inside clip to a harness instead of a collar if your dog likes to wiggle or keep his/her paws out. Just be aware that it is possible to get out even when using the safety clip (aka, make sure your dog doesn’t hang themselves trying to get out)
Wir transportieren einen Chavalier King Charles Spaniel, ca 7.5kg.
Safe for my well trained Jack-Russel on a motorbike. Can’t say my dog loves it, or hates it for that matter. She’s rather impartial but loves the destinations. The internal strap is too long but you can tie a knot (or two) in it . Use a dog harness for extra safety.
Sehr guter Rucksack. Unser Zwergdackel wollte gar nicht wieder raus. Er passt super hinein und kann sich bequem hinlegen. Auf dem Boden des Rucksacks befindet sich ein herausnehmbares Kissen und eine Kurzleine um den Hund zu sichern. Der Rucksack trgt sich sehr angenehm und lsst such individuell einstellen. Wir haben uns eher aus optischen Grnden fr diesem Rucksack entschieden weil er mehr nach Wanderrucksack aussieht und nicht wie eine Transportbox. Von uns eine klare Kaufempfehlung!!
I can’t say enough great things about this bag! My 10 pound Maltese Pomeranian mix LOVES this bag! When he sees it, he tries to jump into it before I have even opened it!
What I love most about this bag is how the weight is distributed. I’ve put my dog in a regular Jansport backpack and it really hurt my back after awhile. This bag has clips that help support the weight of your dog so it doesn’t hurt your back! I’m in love
The top mesh is opaque enough that doggo is concealed and can be taken pretty much anywhere in stealth mode. I’ll be covering the Kurgo logo with a patch so that people don’t see the dog image and realize I’m not alone 🙂
The only shortcoming I’ve noticed so far is the hip/waist belt. It’s fine for helping stabilize the pack, but does nothing to distribute weight off my shoulders and onto my hips. Pleeeease fix this in the next version!!
Nie wieder ohne!
I have a 15 pound dachshund/chihuahua mix that I rescued and he loves going for walks with me. He does good on his own but he was previously not treated well and has hip issues so I’m so happy that I can comfortably carry him without strain on either of us. The back pack does great on walks, hikes and even worked great for a flight. Plenty of space and it’s well vented with lots of extra room for personal belongings. Thanks for the awesome product would recommend its well worth the extra $$
I have a 11 lb porkie-Pom Yorkie- and loves walks and hikes but his little body can only go so far. Decided to break the bag in with a 6.5 mile hike. It worked great. Didn’t use the bars. Did get heavy with 2 hydro flasks filled with water and added 11 lbs but Bennie was cool-sitting on ice pack- and comfortable. Carried him for 5.5 miles. Will plan to use for long neighborhood walks. This is much better than a regular backpack. Kurgo makes very durable products. Lots of space of human gear too.

I love this bag! It fits my dog but then I can also use it as a regular backpack if my dog chooses to walk instead! I am a medium sized woman and I need to use the clasps at the top of the chest for support while carrying my 13 lb dog in it. I wish that it could be pulled tighter. Even with it pulled as tight as possible , there is still too much movement and therefore my dog is not stableized. I love the quality but encourage the company to offer another smaller size or be clearer with their description.
Our 18.5 dog with back problems seemed to enjoy himself after hiking for a while on his own and then being put in here. ( prepped with treat through the hole the day before). Able to put his front paws also through the hole which took pressure off his back. Appreciate the center and top handle to lift him on and off without having to swing too much by shoulder straps. Would like better hip belt. He did well for several miles. Product very sturdy and well constructed. Appreciate room for hydration bladder and pockets. Happy to be able to hike together again.
I was a bit scared of spending this much money on a carrier, but it was well worth it. My little dog and I travel together and having to carry him, his bag, my backpack, and a small suitcase is a lot. This backpack has a good amount of extra space to hold the things we need to access in flight , which means no extra bag! It fits both of us great and is super comfortable even when loaded with my dog, his stuff, and my stuff. It’s pretty easy to put on, although there will be a learning curve for you and your dog if you’ve not used a dog backpack before. It does fit under the plane seat, but if the additional interior rods are in the main compartment, it won’t fit as easily. I has to really shove it in there. We highly recommend this product.
First time me and my partner had ever hiked and we thought to bring our pooch along with us! As you can see from the photo she was very content (I hope).
We climbed snowdon and had no problem!
I definitely recommend the bag for anyone who is thinking of going adventures.
Awesome pack! My 16 lb dog is 15 years old and has arthritis so she couldn’t do long walks or hikes with me. She struggles on hills and certain surfaces like gravel. I started carrying her in my arms but quickly realized that wasn’t going to be a permanent solution. Once I got my kurgo pack delivered though, I could stick her in and carry on with my day. She loves it! She curls up in there if it is a cold day or she looks out if she is feeling social. I do have to put some blankets on the bottom to give her a boost so she can see out and be properly situated though. It also has tons of other pockets and compartments for all the dog’s gear and my gear. I use it all the time! Totally worth it.
I bought this backpack for my GF’s birthday so she could take our Ragdoll cat on hikes. She couldn’t be happier. For now our cat weights about 3kg’s and the backpack was comfortable on the hikes we did, longest one being around 15km. It is a little hard on the lower back as mentioned in other comments, but this hasn’t been a problem at all.
Can not comment on durability yet, but it seems really well made and sturdy. It looks like a normal backpack, the red color is nice. We are very happy.
Die ersten beiden Versuch waren deutlich billiger, aber dementsprechend haben sie auch nichts getaugt und gingen sofort zurck.
Dieser hier ist zwar kein Schnppchen, aber er berzeugt.
Er lsst sich gut einstellen, bietet eine stabile Sitz- bzw Standflche fr den Hund und macht nicht den Eindruck, dass er gleich auseinander fllt.
Ferner bietet es auch Platz fr zustzliche Ausstattung wie Wasserflasche und anderes Zeugs, welches man beim Wandern so rumtrgt.
Natrlich muss man bercksichtigen, dass ein ca. 7 kg schwerer Hund kein leichtgewichtiges Ausflugsgepck ist, aber mit den vorhandenen Einstellriemen lsst sich die Last richtig verteilen. Er hngt dann nicht wie ein Sack am Rcken.
Ich wrde ihn wieder kaufen.
This is a great, well-made backpack. I only did the four stars due to the fact that I thought there was a more mesh-like cover for the dog to breath thru if they were totally inside the bag. As it turns out, it is a breathable material but not as open mesh as I thought. With a breed with breathing issues I feel less comfortable to zip the closure with my dog inside. But my lil Frenchie loves it! He is calm once in it and likes being closer to me versus on a leash.
I do know that it’s not a built as a seat belt harness- of which I do own multiple- I only weaved the seat belt thru so he wouldn’t tip forward.
Quite expensive for a back pack but very sturdy and well made. Quite deep pocket for dog I have to pad it out with lightweight towels etc so my two tiny Yorkies can see out. no loops for stabiliser rods at top
Great backpack very clever design just got it so I have not used it yet.
love this for my 10 lb chughuahua. i like that i can buckle it into my car easily by putting the belt through the handle, and then take him with me on my back at our destination. my only complaint is that one of the bars on the inside keeps slipping out of its loop and I have to readjust it once a week or so. also, i’d like if the tether could be made even a bit shorter. even at its shortest, he can still get his front half out of the hole and hang his feet over the side. not a real complaint as he still cant go anywhere, but until I train him to stop fidgeting when he wants to greet someone, i might have to shorten the tether a bit myself. love this bag!!!
Ich kann ihn nur weiterempfehlen!
Amazing!
My dog loves to get in it and go on motorbike rides with me, I definitely get some curious looks, but he absolutely adores it! Helps out with quick tips to the vet as well!
Dopo tre zaini presi a 35 euro circa che sono durati al massimo un anno, finalmente ho trovato uno zaino perfetto per il mio cane (5kg) che felicissimo. E’ spazioso con una base rigida (quindi sentendo “duro” sotto, il mio cane si sente molto tranquillo e si acciambella pure mentre cammino) ed molto simile agli zaini della the north face.
Costicchia, vero, ma credo che alla fine vale la pena dato che quelli da poco durano poco e niente, mentre questo pi grande, ha altri comparti per metterci le cose e per i viaggio ed molto pi robusto! Approved.

I was thinking to return it if I don’t like it after the trip with my cat to Europe. But it is so good that I will keep it even though I bought too many travel bags for my cat! Carry with your pet with this backpack is very comfortable and my cat has a lot of air when the flip all opened. Its a good bag for walking around with your pet but not a travel bag on the plane. I brought one classic soft pet carrier on the plane and switch my cat at the last min before I was boarding. Strong materials and worth to pay over $100
Just what I was looking for. Comfortable, discreet, and big enough to fit my 17 pound lanky poodle/Pomeranian. Great quality and sturdy, but the extra poles inside the bag to help it keep its shape doesn’t stay in place so they’re essentially useless and I got rid of them. This bag is soft-sided so it won’t keep its shape, but my dog seems to be fine with that. She does try to jump out – even though it has a tether to keep her tied in, she will still try to jump out and choke herself.
Only downside is lack of air flow. The “mesh” on the bag is still fairly thick so it doesn’t allow for airflow, and my dog seems to get hot very quickly if it’s fully closed. I saw another review where they put grommets on the bag so I installed 8 grommets to try to help with air flow.
Great for planes – fits under seat.
I got this carrier for my 16 lb Boston terrier (he has luxating patellas and cannot walk as far as he used to). He fits well in it and it is the only carrier we’ve tried that he hasn’t hated + attempted to escape from. The first time we put him in it, he didn’t seem to mind it and then we put it on the floor and open the zipper and he just stayed sitting in it! It’s very sturdy, SO many pockets and will be great for hikes and general wandering about with Jasper in tow. Only draw back was it’s a pretty expensive but we are happy with it.
A few things I’m impressed by G-Train:
1) the soft-shell-like bottom under the pet compartment is a better design than any of the carriers I’ve seen/researched on.
2) the storage compartment is generous, we won’t have to pack another bag for short trips anymore!
3) thickness of the straps for weight distribution.
Things I wish could be improved:
1) the removable pad inside the pet compartment contains a thick cardboard, instead of plastic-like material. This means it’d be hard to clean once it gets wet. It also makes placing an ice pack in there in summertime difficult.
2) the “laptop sleeve” is smaller than I expected. Its size is better suited for a decent sized tablet than laptop. It ought to be advertised as such.
Will update this review if anything changes. Hopefully it doesn’t wear out fast.
Overall verdict by our pup: refusing to leave G-Train after a test drive.
