Just got the pack for my 2 year old, 70 lb, yellow lab. We tried it out today with a couple of water bottles and its great. She walked right by my side and even walked past the bad neighbor dogs without too much issue. It was like her brain was otherwise engaged! The padding is perfect for dogs with sensitive skin, and the straps ensure a perfect fit. I bought the medium size and its great for her, she's on the slight side and a younger dog. This will even the playing field for us on long walks and help give her a purpose! The pack is really well made & looks very durable. Looking forward to using it all over.

seems like a great pack so far and has far more capacity than she will ever use. She ran with it, tromped through snow. however, the sizing is difficult. her chest size and length is large because she's a lab. where the belly strap hangs (south of her big rib cage) she's probably a medium or small. we have the strap as short as it will go and without enough weight in the pack, it still slides to one side or the other.

Great backpack for the money. I have a 40 lbs english springer spaniel and a small fits just fine. Good quality pack! Only gripe is that the pack needs to be filled evenly so it doesn't slide to one side.

Before purchasing this product, I read every review I could regarding sizing and worried and fretted about whether I was getting the right one for my dog. I finally purchased the medium for my Akita (granted, he's a runt of an Akita, only about 70 lb.) and it fits perfectly! Some other reviews have talked about the belly strap being too long, but it fits fine on him. No problems. I have yet to really get to test it's durability, but it seems very well constructed. Much higher quality than the last backpack we used on him. Before, we had an Outdoor Hound Excursion backpack which was literally falling apart at the seams after only a couple of months of use. The Kelty also more properly places the backpack further up on the shoulders rather than on the back of the dog, which is much healthier in the long run. I'll probably review it again when I see how it stands up to the punishment my dog will no doubt deal out.

Let's first remind ourselves that this item is made by Kelty, one of the premier manufacturers of outdoor gear. If they put their name on it, surely it is a quality item - and it is.
I have a 73lb lab/Weimaraner mix (with identical build to a typical Weim) and the medium fits her perfectly, albeit on the snugger side of the adjustment range. I read other reviews and they complain about difficulty in preventing the pack from sliding over their head on downhills or when they drop their head, but I've yet to have that problem. We have hiked several times and been on OHV excursions several others, where she has carried her own supplies and some of my own, as well.
The harness system on the Kelty is one of the better designs out there, with the Y-yolk and chest pad for optimum comfort and security. The pack slips on easy, and is buckled in at two points under the chest.
Overall, an excellent product (durable, waterproof, comfortable, and practical) from the venerable brand Kelty, at a very competitive price. Strongly recommended.
