Here’s Ruffwear’s classic backpack redesigned!

The Approach Pack is a day hiking and light overnight dog pack with every day fit and functionality. Its radial cut saddlebags are the perfect size and shape for long day walks or light overnights.

Your dog should carry no more than 25% of his / her body weight, including the weight of the pack and contents. If your mate is new to dog packs ease in with a light load and work up to greater capacity. Most dogs adjust quicker than you might expect. : )

The saddle bags rest on a breathable harness which stabilises the load beautifully. The pack is constructed with lightweight materials and a streamlined design with your furry mate’s comfort top of mind.

There are five points of adjustment on the pack to get an optimal fit.

There are two leash attachment points to choose from: aluminium V-ring on the back and reinforced webbing loop on the front.

New Approach Pack features!

Increased breathability with a perforated harness
More flexible molded foam chassis
Improved fade-resistant materials
Updated flopper stopper system for stabilising the saddlebags
