Our pup loved the fact that he got to go along. He quickly settled in, never whined or complained, and generally just happily hung out. We were active and I kept forgetting I had him on my back, he was content. A great option if you need to go somewhere less than clean with your dog, if you know they won't be able to keep up, or you're worried for their safety and ability to be with you easily.
Got this bag to take my la"bro"doodle along with me on bike rides. He is very high energy but only runs in short spurts and doesn't enjoy long runs along my bike. Once he is tired out I will put him in the backpack and he LOVES riding along for the rest of my ride (typically 15-20 miles) with a couple of leg stretches when needed. I did end up returning this particular pack and purchasing the new rover instead as the Urban 2 turned out to be a little too small for him (everything else was sold out at the time). The Rover pack has a ton more features and is a little heavier but we enjoy it even better. Best part about the pack is watching the reactions as we pass people on our ride. Everyone thinks it it super cool!
My dog absolutely loves this bag. He always wants to tag along when my husband and I go anywhere and he was thrilled to be able to look over my shoulder while on the move. I'll admit I like being able to hold his paw on my shoulder. We purchased the medium sized bag (he was right in between S/M) which wound up being a bit big. Since the booster block was sold out, a yoga bag did the trick so he can sit comfortably.
I bought this SportSack for my cavalier king-Charles so he can be safe when we are travelling. At first, he was a bit "sad" in the sack, but with treats and encouragements, he now loves it ! So happy with it, the sack is going to be our best companion when we travel !
I bought this SportSack for my senior terrier mix after seeing other dogs traveling comfortably in SportSacks around town. I wasn't sure my dog would like it, but in just a few short weeks he has become very comfortable in it! We just got back from a 10-mile bike ride, and last week we took a historic walking tour, both while using the SportSack. It's comfortable and secure for my dog, and he gets so much attention when he's riding around on my back, he loves it! I am so happy I decided to try a SportSack.
