Customers say

Customers overwhelmingly praise this backpack for exceptional comfort, durable construction, and thoughtful design that enables dogs to join activities they previously couldn't. The padded interior, adjustable hip and chest straps, and secure harness clip earn consistent acclaim, with many noting their pets relax or sleep inside while owners hike miles without shoulder strain. Multiple zippered pockets, laptop sleeve, and mesh bottle holders add practical value. Some reviewers mention limited airflow in warm climates and note that short-legged or long-bodied dogs may sit too low, though most resolve this with boosters. A few report minor component issues. Overall, most consider it superior to competing carriers and well worth the investment.

Great option for travel

Backpack

1 month ago
We purchased two (through Amazon). Good quality, roomy, and functional. They work extremely well for our senior 20lb Westie girls. And they double as overnight hotel bags for us. (We typically use a stroller for our girls at home but it it too big and bulky for travel.)

BEST THING I EVER BOUGHT FOR MY CATS

ThomasandGeoffrey

7 months ago
I give this 10 stars for my 10 lb. cat and 18 stars for my 18 lb cat. They’re OBSESSED with it! I don’t know how anyone couldn’t give this a perfect review. I am going to give every detail I can so enjoy the following: The only critique I have for future models is instructions should be included. There are a lot of awesome features like the optional rods…USE THEM!!! Most important thing!! But I had to play awhile before realizing where the clips were. Not even 100% sure I did it right but it seems to work very well. There are a few different models out now, but the one I have has a pocket on the back underneath the straps with Velcro. It’s the zipper pocket where you can tuck the straps in if you use it as a traditional carrier. On either side of the pocket interior, there’s a little black clip on a string. I put the rod through and ran down til it touched the bottom. Then I tucked the top of the rod I tucked into the top zippered part of the pocket. So my only other critique is I’m not sure if there’s a string or tiny pocket or something the rod should slip into on the top and bottom, but that would be nice. The durability is insane and the details are high quality. The zipper pulls, zipper mechanisms, and the fabric are so nice. The tether is thick and long. There’s a darn laptop sleeve I mean, come on! To top it off you can tuck the straps into these little pockets and zip them shut, and put it on its side to transform the bag into a traditional carrier. Whaaaat did I say?! Yes!! This is a transformer backpack pet carrier!! Mind blown! My 18 lb gray cat lays beside it in one of the pics. He’s perfectly comfortable in it in both positions. The quality is also shown in the removable “cushion” which has a thick piece of heavy corrugate(?) board inside the zipped pocket…so it’s washable. I included 2 pics of this. I mean that’s thoughtful! I love products that are worth the money I’m paying. Buying a cheap bag just means I’m going to have to buy them constantly, or even on 1 use the threads break. But this bag is impressive!! The plastic bottom feels rubbery almost, it’s really thick too. I can tell that’s a big difference for how comfortable my cats sit in it when I wear it as a backpack. Both of my 7yo cats have been in the same house since kittens and only leave to go to the vet. We’re moving 5 hours away and needed a backpack so I can carry them both easily. I might start taking them on hikes. 😂 That’s how cool this is!! Omg and don’t get me started on the THREE LOOPS ON THE BOTTOM my carabiner fans! There’s elastic loops on both straps, adjustable chest strap & adjustable lower back strap. I’m a 275 lb woman with a large chest and I have room left on the straps, my fellow large boned folks, you will be astounded! Everything is going to end in exclamation marks now! I hope I did it justice with this review! Buy one and you’ll see!

Excellent Quality Dog Carrier at a Great Price

Maha

I recently purchased the Kurgo G-Train Dog Carrier Backpack, and I’m honestly very impressed with the quality. The backpack is sturdy, well-designed, and super comfortable to carry, even for longer trips. My dog feels safe and relaxed inside, and the ventilation and padding are excellent. What made the purchase even better was getting a great discount using a GrabOn coupon code, which made this high-quality carrier totally worth the price.

Not good. overpriced. under-designed.

Not sure why these are so popular we can’t use it at all for our dog. If i had paid attention to the design i would have noticed the top opening cannot be adjusted so there is only a very limited sized dog where this pack will work. We tried a little makeshift platform inside and all kinds of mods but unfortunately this pack is going to donations.

We're sorry this pack was not the right fit for your dog's size! This pack is recommended for dogs up to 25 lbs.; if your dog is larger than this, it would unfortunately not be the right fit. Though short/very small dogs may not reach the opening, they can still be carried well within the pack and would still have ventilation with the mesh on the back and the opening area. If the issue is that your dog is smaller and having direct access to the opening is critical for you, the pack from our sister brand, PetSafe, may be a better fit. This can be seen here- https://www.petsafe.com/p/happy-ride-backpack-pet-carrier/ZTV00-17466/ If you still have your current pack and have any questions about this one, please reach out to our live support team here- https://www.kurgo.com/contact-us Our phone hours are Monday through Friday 8 A.M.- 7 P.M.

Great but needs one modification

Tash

It’s super comfy for the dog and generally for the person wearing the back pack. One flaw that easily can be fixed is that The hard plastic on the bottom makes it sore on the lower back if carried for two days in a row. So there should be padding on the plastic as well.

I needed to transport my dog on the plane and this backpack is perfect! When we go out, she actually likes to stay in the backpack as a safe place.

The bag is excellent quality and well designed. I secured the Secured bag onto my bike and my dog now loves joining us on bike rides. I like the fact he’s on his feet rather than placing stress on his spine. Because the bag is attached to the bike, he feels very safe and secure.

Questions

1 - 3 of 3 Questions

Will a Yorkie be able to kay down on this bag while traveling? We are looking for a replacement bag and would love a backpack style bag, but it won't work if the little one can't lay down in the bag during transport.

  1. Thanks for asking! It's possible your Yorkie may be able to lay down in this bag during travel; this would depend on their size and the spaces they are comfortable laying down in. The base of this bag is around 12.5" wide, and around 9" deep.



Please provide more details about the product. The dimensions of the bag are not helpful. Owners need the length/girth/weight of pup this product is suited for. Even example breeds would help. I love the color but can’t risk $150 I’m case it’s too small:(

  1. We'll be happy to provide information for you! As mentioned in the description, this backpack is a good fit for dogs up to 25 lbs. Though we do not have specific weight/length requirements, most dogs under 25 lbs. will fit well in this pack. We would recommend reaching out to Petco to check that their return policy will give you plenty of time to make sure this bag is comfortable for your dog. If you have any further questions, please contact our Customer Care team! Our number is 1-877-847-3868, and our hours are Monday through Friday 8 A.M.- 7 P.M. EST.



Where do the 2 sticks go they should b able to b used to make front more sturdy when puppy head sticking out

  1. Thank you for your question, Chris! Please refer to the "Optional - Stabilizing Rods" section of your Fitting and Use Instructions. This will show you where the upper and lower loops are in the pack so you can place the stabilizing rods inside to help the bag maintain its shape.
