Pet Backpacks Tested Reviewed, How to Pick a Pet Carrier, Traveling, Hiking

Not only did we prepare ourselves for RV Living Full Time, we prepared our dogs. That meant my Chewie with Congested Heart Failure and Scrappy. So I needed to find a way to include Chewie on our adventures while keeping her safe. We wanted our new life as full time RVers to be dog friendly

UPDATE: We actually bought a different backpack. Its not perfect, but works for us for now. Outward Hound
