NEW 2024 Colours & Updates! Perfect for hikes & day trips, the Front Range Day Pack is a streamlined, comfortable dog backpack that lets your dog carry all their essentials - plus a little more!
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 that has 5 points of adjustability - this gives it exceptional fit 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 including 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 a bit 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 adjustment on the girth and belly straps, and an updated front attachment point for improved durability. Plus more recycled materials in the shell, webbing and lining.

Sizing the Front Range Day Pack
To choose the best size for your dog, 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.
