## Description

A backpack with plenty of room? Check. Laptop and iPad sleeve? Check. And a carrier for your dog? We’re just getting started. Meet the K9 Ruck Sack, a stylish solution to carrying your little pooch around without needing to worry about their safety. With a waterproof bottom, padded back for comfort, and top/side ventilation, you’ll go everywhere together. We’ve even included a sternum strap for extra support and top buckles that are also bottle openers. Simply secure the interior tether on your dog’s harness, and you’re off!

Review: Fantastic carrier for hiking and city use. Beautiful design. Great quality. Very comfortable shoulder straps. This bag fits my 13 lbs Havanese very well, although she needed a towel at the bottom of the van as a booster :)
Review: I've bought this bag for our 8kg Jack Russell cori cross. The bag is a decent size and the materials are ok. Only issue is if your dog wants to sit with one arm hanging out the front part of the bag is not sturdy enough so the whole front bit starts bending and tilting temporarily which means you can't use it long term. If the front panel is bending inwards then the dog hangs out of the bag attached to the safety belt. I would welcome to try the improved version, but for this back that was a bit pricey, I feel like I am going to get at least a years service out of it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is anyone having good luck with using this with an active cat and the tether?  Mine isn’t a fan of crate carriers. Any input? Thanks!**
A: My daughter actually trained her cat to stay in it. She put chopped meat in bottom of the carrier. She used catnip spray on entire carrier. Hope this helps. And Good luck

**Q: Would a 24 pound french bulldog fit in this backpack?**
A: I have a Maltipoo weighing 19 pounds and he fits in it very well with ample room to spare so I am positive that a 24 pound bull dog will fit.  The material is very strong and also comfortable for him.

**Q: my shiba inu will be about 15lbs will she fit in this or will it be too small?**
A: Thank you for your great question. We do not have a minimum weight recommendation for this product. This should be suitable for your 15 pound dog.

**Q: Two questions:  (1) How does a cat breathe in here? (2) My cat tears through mesh; is this mesh really strong?**
A: Thank you for this question, Gigi!  This backpack has faux leather vents on either side; these can be seen in images that show the sides of the bag.  You can also have the mesh exposed on the top, or zip down the mesh portion to allow your cat to look around.  

Though the mesh is sturdy, as with any material it would be possible to damage it by determined effort.

*by A***Y on 16 February 2022*

Feels a bit expensive for a backpack, but price aside we're pretty happy with our purchase and our dog didn't seem to mind it as well. The inside seems comfortable and is easy to clean if there are any messes. Also the design is casual enough to be used as a regular backpack for any hiking or outdoor activities
