Inside the backpack, you’ll find an integrated safety leash that you can attach to your dog’s harness. While this is an important and effective safety measure, it does not offer 100% foolproof protection, as some dogs are very skilled at wriggling free.

Because our backpacks feature generous mesh windows for optimal airflow, a pet could theoretically climb out if left unattended. For this reason, we recommend practicing sitting safely in the backpack step by step.
