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.

How to Chose the Best Size of 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

Size	Chest Measure	Weight of Pack*	Capacity
XS	43-56cm (17-22")	0.32kg	4.5L
S	56-69cm (22-27")	0.43kg	8L
M	69-81cm (27-32")	0.48kg	10.5L
L/XL	81-107cm (32-42")	0.61kg	18.5L

*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.

Key Features of the Ruffwear Front Range Dog Pack:

Stable Gear Carry - the weight-forward, radial cut pannier design stablises the pack contents equally on your dog's back

Care

Hand wash with mild detergent. Air dry only.

I got the front range day pack for a multi day trek with my border collie. It worked really well. It fit him comfortably and didn’t rub and we had a great few days in the bush just him and I. We had several strangers stop and ask for photos of him in his cute little backpack. The assistance I got from canine spirit when choosing which pack would be best was that of a small town country store. Very warm and personal and helpful. I’d definitely buy from them again.

My dog can carry his own water now!

We've done a couple of hikes/walks now with increasing load (now 5kg on a 33kg dog) and this pack is brilliant. The L/XL is a great fit on my shepherd with plenty of room for water, booties, poo bags, all the essentials. The material is rugged enough that squeezing between boulders/trees has been no issue so far. Love this product and would recommend, however note that the next size down (M) is only half the capacity.

Front Range Day Pack

Love the Front Range Day Pack and the size is perfect but I find it very difficult to adjust the straps but maybe they're tight for a reason. An improvement would also be to have reflective strips on the top of the pack also?

A little smaller than I hoped

I bought it after I measured the lengths for my dog, and I found myself really having to lengthen it to the very end of the straps to get it to fit my dog. I found the packs even though it states 10L was a bit smaller than I hoped for

Great harness

It’s taken a couple of goes to get the fit properly dialled in but the harness is great. The front attachment has noticeably reduced my dog’s pulling too. He doesn’t seem fazed at all wearing it and I’ve had no concerns of him backing out of it at all.

Easy to adjust and lightweight

Easy to adjust and lightweight. Love the colours too.

Fabulous sturdy product that fits securely,

Fabulous sturdy product that fits securely, highly recommend

I highly recommend this harness, especially for whippets ,our boy and girl were little escape artist ,but now we have full control and the handle on the back gives me even more confidence walking our pair as we are in a high kangaroo area and the bright colours look great too

Brilliant service

Ordered a XL jacket for my dog, thankfully I was contacted to ensure XL was the correct size, as my dog is a Newfoundland i was confident it would be. However at the encouragement of Carolyn I remeasured her repeatedly and discovered for a 'firm' fit the L would be better. It arrived and fits perfectly with a small amount of adjustment still available.
Thank you for taking the time to ensue I purchased the correct size
High recommend this company

Great Light

I can see my dog in the dark with this light thank you

Great Jacket

Thank you

Hi and Light Dog Harness
