Saddlebag for Dogs, 2008-05-10
Love this product. It fits perfectly on my Golden Retriever, and she loves carrying water bottles on our trips. The size of the bag is great because it is not too large or two small.

MEDIOCRE PACK, MEDIOCRE RESULTS, 2008-05-05
I bought this pack for my 10-month-old Pit Bull/German Shepherd Dog mix, to slow him down on our walks and help with our "don't pull the leash" training. Results are mixed.

Sam is about 65 lbs, about 23" height at his withers, with a 28" chest and the pack had to be adjusted almost to the shortest length on the belly strap. There are adjustments along the top but it took some effort due to the multiple folds of the loose strap ends.

The structure itself is decent, although the packs are quite large. Due to the short belly strap, any weights I put in them (like water bottles) fall pretty low, almost under his belly. On the good side, the padding on top is very soft with a fur-like lining. Same on the front chest strap - there are two flaps that go against the dog's chest to prevent chafing. Unfortunately, I have to adjust these flaps three or four times on a 45-minute walk because they get out of position as Sam walks.

I put the pack on empty on the first walk and Sam took to it very well. Maybe his working dog instincts kicked in. His pulling was a fraction of what it usually is and he did not seem to have any discomfort.

After that I started taking him out with our other dog, which I don't do often because both of them seem to feed on each other's energy. I also added two water bottles. Unfortunately, it didn't seem to slow him down as much as when he walks alone. His pulling is a little better, but even when I increased the weights it didn't seem to slow him down significantly. Also, after only a few walks the jump ring where the leash attaches came apart and broke out of the nylon loop. Fair warning if you have a larger dog or one that is still pulling a little. I had to revert back to using his collar until I get a replacement ring.

All in all, it's a decent pack, easy to use, but not the highest quality. And, for anyone looking for a miracle in dog walking progress, you may not get it. Although I see improvement, there is still much training to do.

Good product, however, 2008-03-18
Good product. However, the pockets are too big for my 40 lb. dog. They hang down too far and rub places on his legs when I walk him with weight in them. This would do best on a taller, bigger dog.

Saddleback , 2007-11-17
I slip the back strap through my dog's back legs and then clip the front straps together, the fit is perfect, but just a little difficult to place on the dog. It works well to keep him under control on the walks with about 24 oz of water bottles on each side. The strap in the front does need to be cut so it will not drag. Also, it washes well, but needs to be washed every use becauee it gets wet every time. Overall effective though.

Typical Crap From China, 2007-11-07
Crap. As someone who enjoys taking my dog with me nearly everywhere, China's crap products follow. It functions, but my husky looses all interest in life. The band around the neck should have come with a cadiliac hood ornament because it does very little, except make me bend over and repeatly reposition.
The good news; mountain smith makes a similar pack 3 times the price produced by the same innocent 9 year old at $0.14/hr. Demand more-I wish I would have.
