Approach Dog Backpack
It holds plenty of gear but doesn't seem to be too intrusive. Make sure you try and balance the weight on both sides. Then if your dog tends to pull it might shift to the side they are pulling on. Overall though great product for great value.

Love the backpack. We got the blue one and fits very well - true to size (and I was sure it would be too small).
Well built and seems quite comfortable.

Very excited to get it out on the trails
We haven't used it yet, but our puppy is completely outfitted with Ruffwear and we are super excited for this addition to his gear closet (well, it's a drawer, but you know what we mean) -woof

Second one purchased
This is the second one I have purchased for my other dog. I now own two. The first is many years old and still is amazing and works great. I loved it to much I needed one for my new pup. The craftsmanship is supreme and these packs can go anywhere!! If I get more dogs I know what pack I’ll be getting.
