Front Range Day Pack (2024) - Streamlined, Day Hikes

The Ruffwear Front Range Day Pack is the perfect dog pack for days out exploring.   With a comfortable fit similar to the popular Front Range Harness, this pack has an integrated padded harness and belly strap. It also has 5 points of adjustment giving it exceptional fit on most breeds and pack stability.  It has a front loading design which means the saddlebags sit comfortably towards the shoulders in an ergonomic position. 

This canine rucksack also has 3 leash attachment options.  There are a V-ring and a tow loop on the back. Plus it has a reinforced webbing loop on the chest that can be used, alongside training techniques, to redirect dogs that may pull on the leash. 

There is also a back handle that you can use to help your dog over obstacles and river crossings.

New improvements for 2024: Easier adjustments on the girth & belly straps.  An updated front attachment point which is much more durable.  Ruffwear have also included more recycled materials in the shell, webbing and lining.

How to Size the  Front Range Day Pack

Measure around the widest part of their chest/rib cage.  So around your dog's girth.

In between sizes? Ruffwear recommend SIZING UP if your dog is a stable weight  

*Dog's should not carry more than 25% of their weight

If your dog is new to packs, start with a light load and work up over a few weeks to a heavier load.  **Always bear in mind your dog's fitness level and age.
