Every adventure is better when we carry it together. 🏔️🐾 One thing I love about hiking & camping with Ponyo is that she gets to be part of the adventure is not just by following along, but by carrying a few of her own essentials too. We’ve been using the @ruffwear_europe Palisades™ Dog Pack, and it’s such a thoughtful piece of gear for longer days on the trail. What makes it stand out:
🎒 The saddlebags are removable, so when we reach camp or want to explore without the extra weight, I can simply unclip them and Ponyo is left wearing the harness. No need to swap gear.
🐾 The harness fits securely and stays comfortable, even over longer hikes.
💧 Plenty of space for lightweight essentials like treats, poop bags, a collapsible bowl and water. A few backpack tips:
• Introduce the pack empty first and let your dog build confidence.
• Keep the weight balanced on both sides.
• Only healthy adult dogs should carry a light load . it’s about sharing the adventure, not carrying everything. I love seeing Ponyo proudly wearing her own pack. It makes every adventure feel like we’re truly exploring as a team. ❤️ Thank you @ruffwear_europe for keeping us adventure-ready ! . @omsystemcameras.uk OM-3 + M.zuiko 12-100mm F4.0 #dalmatian #campingwithdogs #hikingwithkids #dogbackpack #harness
