This item has put my daughter to sleep more times in one day than I did!!! 100thumbs up 👍🏿.Very comfortable for the baby (side note): make sure the baby’s legs are all the way through.
Honestl , I tried soooo many backpacks but by far my fav has been from Oskar&Friends. Love the company and fits perfectly for my lil 10 pound maltipoo Chester ❣ Def recommend
In the description, I put a link for the backpack we actually kept - none of the three we reviewed 😁 But I’ll look into the one you mentioned - our Yorkie passed away, but we do plan on getting another in the future 🐾❤️
Great job on the reviews! We have one similar to your #3 carrier that we use for our chihuahua and we really like it. It also doesn’t take up a lot of room which comes in handy when living in a small space!
I really appreciate this video... partly because of the detailed videos in use, but also because we are the same age, height and weight, and it really helps to see what the size is on. I love that you show back and front use and going from one to the other; I am especially looking for a small front "back"pack... thanks! It's been 3 years, let me speak for everyone when I say, we're still looking for the best backpack, please add an update if you've found something better! (The pinned link doesn't work)
Hi Alice. Just watched your dog packs review. I, too, like the one you chose, for all the same reasons. We will place his favorite blanket in the bottom, for cushioning if he decides to lie down. Very helpful! 🙏💕. Thank you.
Thanks for the review. We've been researching for soft carriers for our cats, so your video really is a help. Mostly when we get the RV and start our travels. I thought I was going to get away from seeing Larry dance, but I was wrong.
Bruce Murray Bruce, 😂 Larry is loosening up a bit. We still have not found the perfect bag. Definitely try them out. That’s why we love Amazon. Great return policy. Alice and Larry
Came across your blog which had your video. GREAT review! We were initially looking at a backpack with the small head/neck hole opening ourselves just based on an advertisement. Your compare provided us with "actual use" things to consider when making a purchase!
Glad we could help. But not that in my description of this video, I actually returned all three of these and got my money back. I bought a fourth kind and kept that one
Your baby is so cute, I wish i could carry my babies but they are to big. Plus they love all the smells and people. We do more visiting than walking while on a hike. lol
Thanks for this detailed review. My dog also has congestive heart failure and she has traceal collapse so this was super helpful. Im still searching for one that is smaller and more durable than the second one as I have the same preferences as you. Please let me know if you have found any others that both you and Chewy like. Thanks!
In the description of the video, I added a link to the backpack we ended up buying. It wasn’t perfect, but better than the 3 I featured on this video. Alice
Kiana, I figured if it was hard for me to find info, it would be for others. Check the description- I ended keeping a fourth one and returning these 3 for money back, Alice
Chase Manilow Chase, hi. Thank you for the feedback. We actually sent all of those back. If you want to know which one we ended up with, let me know. (RV DMC) Alice
@@tinawilliams3337 Tina, love to know what you think. We returned and got our money back for all 3 reviewed. The one we kept is in the description Let me know with a new comment what you think of the one you try Alice
Great review of the pet carriers. We have a little toy poodle who likes to be carried. She can walk, just chooses not to. Can you spell spoiled? Haha. Chewie is adorable sitting there! I see Scrappie there behind you on the walk. Too cute!
Thanks Bob. Yeah we actually chose another backpack then the ones we reviewed haha. Our dogs are spoiled too. why not? They are our fur babies. I cant wait for a meet up. Alice and Larry
The smaller compact ones are very secure and in their own way provide a more enjoyable travel exp for the pup but they're quite intimidating to use. Btw..where is the location where the video is taken? I think i would like it there. Im not from the states.

Thanks. We really thought about it before we picked the name. Glad we could help with this video. The pack I finally kept us in the description- the 3 in the video didn’t work for us, Alice
Glad I came across your channel. I am also looking for the same thing in a backpack. Our little baby also has CHF and want to take her with us on our walks.
Hi. We actually didn’t keep any of these. Instead we use Outward hound. It’s not perfect but it’s the best so far. Hope this helps. It’s hard having a fur baby with special needs. Take care. Alice
Great review of these pet carriers. I'm searching for one for Gracie, my cat. I have one, but it doesn't have any real structure. It just kind of collapses around her. The search continues.
Honey and Me I feel you. I actually bought another one not in this video. It’s better than the ones in the video but I’m still searching. Thanks for watching and commenting. Alice
Barbara Mitchell Barbara, hi. Yes. I actually did get a different one. I really should up date the description with a link. Sorry. We use Outward Hound we found on Amazon because it had better padding. Thanks for asking. Alice
I have a question...So, I have a Chihuahua puppy that is about 2.5 lbs and she will get about 5 lbs, maybe 6 lbs when full grown. Do you think the second one that you chose for your dog would fit my dog? I know I want a front facing carrier but I have spent hours and hours on amazon shopping around and still can't make a decision! I've looked at hundreds of them! I also saw the ones where it's kinda like the ones you use for a baby, and the dogs legs go through the holes and stick out(not sure if you know which ones I'm talking about) and I was wondering if you've ever tried those and what your thoughts are about them, or any pros/cons you can think of for that kind? I looked at the ones that are a sling that you wear across the front of your chest, they remind me of a purse lol, but my only concern with those is the fact that there isn't a sturdy bottom and I want my furbaby to feel secure. Sorry this comment is so long! But I just wanted to get your thoughts/advice/opinions since you have some experience with dog carriers and I have never had one before! Thanks in advance!
In the description, I have a link for the backpack we actually used. The three in this video I returned for a refund. I never used the baby kind where the legs stick out - our Chewie had a sensitive throat and I just didn’t like the way it tied around the neck. Plus, it just doesn’t look natural for a dog? Just me thoughts. Good luck. Look at other comments to see what other pet owners bought. 🐾 ❤️
Uhm, i just bought a bag like the middle one there but a little bigger. I hope that’s the size I get. It may be big but I want my dog to have space in case she wanna lay there for some minutes. Thanks for the vid and sizes.
@@DownsizingMakesCents maybe but it would be a pain to send it back (not Amazon) so I will keep it if it’s big anyway. I just weighed my dog today and she is 4kg now... I think she gained weighed because I don’t take her outside as usual since the pandemia :/ ...time for treadmill for both of us. Gonna check what other bag you suggest anyway Edit: oh, I do know that bag, I was planning on buying it also but I want it to be able to close also. My bag was send today, hope it turns out to be good 🙏🏼
Abby, I actually returned all of them. In the description, I put a link to the one I kept. I think I tried a small for that blue one. Hope that helps. Alice
Hi. I’m sorry. I really can’t help you with that. I just tested for my small Yorkshire Terrier. But I’m sure the companies I showed have larger sizes. Good luck. Take care. Alice
We never used the 3 in the video while riding a bike. But the one added in the description that we ended up keeping we did- light biking. I suggested looking at their websites. I don’t see using the big ones on a bike though. Sorry, wish I could help more, Alice
@@DownsizingMakesCents it’s alright, my little guy barks at other dogs so I’d just like to be able to take him out and not have to worry about it and he can have fun 😂 he’s only 12 pounds so it should be fine, light riding ofc just around the neighborhood:)
Thanks for the video, really helps see how the packs work in depth, ended up getting the K9 Sport Sack from amazon yes it costs more but for more comfortable and quality I would sacrifice a bit more just for a comfortable overall experience! Keep up the good videos!
The link no longer works unfortunately. When shopping on line, it's very difficult to know if a carrier has sufficient padding for comfort for an adult's back, which is very important to me. Straps that are padded are usually pointed out, but not so much the part that is against our back. Loved your video!
Thanks for the video - I chose the third one as my dog will most likely try to jump out of the other bags while we are traveling via motorbike.
Emmanuel, hi. I hope it works out for you. Ours was just for casual walking. Stay safe. Alice
This item has put my daughter to sleep more times in one day than I did!!! 100thumbs up 👍🏿.Very comfortable for the baby (side note): make sure the baby’s legs are all the way through.
