Trail Tested Promise

The Front Range Day Pack incorporates Ruffwear's signature radial cut saddlebags with the customer-favorite Front Range® Harness platform, making it an everyday pack staple in any dog's gear closet. Dogs can help shoulder the load thanks to the integrated padded harness and belly strap that adjust for exceptional fit and pack stability.

The saddlebag geometry creates a passive compression system that is formfitting and supports efficient load carrying. There are three leash attachment options: a V-ring and a tow loop on the back, and a reinforced webbing loop on the chest - great for redirecting dogs that pull when on leash.

With plenty of internal organization and trail-minded details, this comfortable day pack equips dogs to carry the day's provisions on hikes and frontcountry pursuits.

Check out this article if you need help choosing the right pack.

Packs and Trails with Amara the Shepherd

For long hikes, I wanted her to be able to carry her own water and gear, so we opted for a Front Range™ Day Pack from Ruffwear. I was a bit nervous about putting a pack on her. Would it be uncomfortable and take away from her joy on the trail? Would the extra weight tire her out quickly? Would she freeze up and not want to walk at all?

    Awesome!

    Very well made and sits comfortably on my dog’s back! The saddle pockets are very roomy and surprisingly fits lots of things! Easy to put on and take off!

    Well designed Day Pack

    Great day pack for hiking, really well designed, it stays in place unlike other backpacks I tried before. Seems sturdy and the colour is beautiful.

    Functional and Adorable

    Since our pup doesn't mind getting into the harness and is READY to go once its on, it must be comfortable, even with a load! The pouches are much more spacious than we expected, and we're glad we didn't go with a larger pack. The handle could be a little easier to grab and we wish it was easier to keep the load a little higher on his shoulders (no matter how much we tighten the front, the harness likes to slide back, regarless of leash pressure), but minor minor things aside, we love this pack!

    Amazing backpack for the doggo!

    Bringing him on our first backpacking trip this weekend - he’s going to carry all his food, blanket, sleeping pad and extras. Lucky ! Super happy with quality and ability to really strap close to body

    Works great!

    Took a trip to Joshua Tree and used our Day Packs for water and other accessories. Our fur babies didn't even notice they were carrying their own supplies! And they look super cute doing it!
