This past Sunday we all went up the canyon and enjoyed a great hike. The weather is perfect for hiking, and the scenery is awesome. We had to cross a small stream several times.
Notice in this picture how Roxy was smart enough to cross on the little log bridge, while Torrey just plowed through the water.
Torrey got a new Outward Hound backpack from Kyjen a few days before this hike. I was thrilled to get the back pack so she can now carry her own water and treats.
The pack is the perfect size for her. I can put two 12 oz bottles of water in it, one on each side for balance. Plus treats, and a collapsible water bowl.
The pockets themselves detach form the harness part, so when we stop for a break I can quickly undo them with out taking the whole harness off.
The backpack is very well made, lightweight, and super easy to get on and off.
UPDATE Oct. 1 2014: I have been using the Outward Hound backpack for 2 years now, and absolutely love it. When we hike in the desert, or someplace where there is no water, I don’t have to worry about carrying water for the dogs. Torrey knows we are going someplace fun, when I get her pack out for her to put on. It’s been very durable, and I have had no problems with it at all. It’s definitely a must for our outdoor lifestyle.
Disclaimer: I was given the backpack in exchange for my honest review. I received no compensation for this review, other than the free back pack.
Seems like folks making these products are very grateful for your reviews plus trying them out for honest opinions. I am very impressed with the back pack. I’m also impressed that Torrey just plows through the water now. Roxy I know about being closed to the ground believe me.
Beautiful! That looks like so much fun. My Lab Maya has a backpack too!
What a beautiful place you guys have to go hiking. I love the log bridge! That Torrey is quite the trooper isn’t she traipsing right through the water with her new backpack. :)
I just read your review of the pack and it was great! I was looking into this for the Newfs the other day at Petco but was so disappointed that they don’t come in a size big enough for them!
The pictures are beautiful!! You are one smart pup!! I would have taken the log bridge as well! I hate wet paws!!

your photos are beautiful and that is a super cool pack! Perfect for a hiking doggy like you!
Hey Roxy, Hey Torrey, Jet here. Hi Miss Mary.
What a gorgeous hike! Torrey did a super job with her pack, what a helper. I think I would like to cross water like that… looks like fun. I love to “give a shake” after though!
