Dog
Packs - For the active dog and dog owner
For
the active dog and owner duo, the latest trend is dog
packs for those hiking trips or other outdoor pastimes.
Dog
backpacks are nothing new, but they are becoming quite
refined, with designs that will place most of the weight
towards the shoulders, where a dog's back is strongest.
One of the most popular materials for the packs, is
Cordura Nylon, which has the ability to breathe, a plus
in hot weather when the dog is working, and a good portion
of their back and sides is covered by the packs.

Regular
packs, and service dog saddlebags are generally made
in one piece that is placed over the back like a horse
saddlebag. The two sides will have various pockets and
compartments, according to what your needs are. Most
models have straps that are slipped on over the head,
and then snap-buckled under the chest, with quick release
features. The service packs are designed with roomy
pockets for easy access, and large zipper pulls. They
range in size from large capacity saddlebags, which
may bulge sideways depending on the contents, to lighter,
flatter packs for more restricted spaces, such as the
office.
Many
models of dog packs and service dog vests come with
reflective stripes for nighttime visibility, and patches
announcing their role as a trained, or training service
dog. Some also come with release features that allow
you to remove the pack while the dog is at rest.
If
you plan to travel with your dog, and have your own
special supply backpack, you can now get a dog pack
that comes with custom fit bowls and water bottle for
them, and room leftover for some of your stuff, too!
