What a hunk!!!  Just wanted to add, that after a week in NC hiking almost everyday, Anna's Ruffwear Approach pack did GREAT! It didn't slide, did well even when she got in the water (just didn't keep anything that couldn't get wet in the bags) was simple to get on and off and didn't bother her at all. We did get a lot of comments like from people who saw the pack and were like "Oh! What a great idea! I need one!" and several others that called her a pack mule! But it was great to have her carry her own water, bowl and poo bags and whatever other small things we might have had. I highly suggest it!

How old should a dog be before wearing one? Those are awesome!

Stark was VERY young when I started him with the pack, empty of course. I think maybe 8-9 months? I started adding weight (keys, poop bags, lip balm (for me  ) around 12 months? Now at 18, almost 19 months old he is carrying about 1.5lbs maybe a little more in the beginning of our hike (water)?

He looks handsome in green! That's the same one I ordered for Stark.
