Back to Cactus Creek Dog Adventure Backpack

A balanced start to the outing

Check the S and L measurements for this pack before choosing. The right starting point is a comfortable, even fit on your dog, with nothing in the compartments.

Fit first. Pack second.

Measure around the widest part of your dog’s chest and the base of the neck. Check both against this pack’s size guide before choosing.

Put the pack on empty, adjust the straps and make sure the side compartments sit evenly. Check behind the front legs and across the chest for pressure or rubbing as your dog moves.

Balance anything you carry between the two sides. Begin with a short, supervised walk and check the fit again along the way. Remove the pack if it slips, rubs or causes discomfort.

The litre capacity is storage volume only. It is not a carrying-weight recommendation.
