TARIGS MountainRock Backpack – Hiking backpack for dogs

The perfect backpack for small, medium-sized & large dogs up to a maximum of 20 kg. With its four sizes, the dog carrier backpack is suitable for small dog breeds such as Chihuahuas and Yorkshire Terriers, but also for Miniature Pinschers, West Highland White Terriers and Bosten Terriers up to medium-sized dog breeds such as Cocker Spaniels, Basenji and similar dog breeds. The 20 kg MountainRock Backpack is suitable for large dogs such as many Australian Shepherds, Border Collies, Spitz and Whippets. The hiking backpack is also ideal for cats. The hiking backpack for dogs from TARIGS.

Designed in Germany & Made in Europe

Some dogs can be put in the backpack immediately and carried around relaxed, others have to get used to the backpack first. Similar to a dog transport box. How much training is necessary depends on the character, age and breed of your dog.

How to get your dog used to the dog carrier backpack:

  1. Exercise your dog physically and mentally. For example with a long hike, a bike tour, etc.
  2. Put your dog in the backpack from above. Reward with treats. Slowly extend the time in the backpack. Tip: You do not have to start running immediately.
  3. When you’re ready, put your dog in the backpack and the backpack on your back. Alternatively, you can wear the backpack at the front. Due to the ergonomics, however, we do not recommend that you carry the backpack for a long time at the front, especially with medium-weight dogs. Tip: First place the backpack on an elevated object, for example a table, on your back.

The dog carrier backpack is available in 2 materials. An extremely light and robust PVC material or a sustainable and durable vegan leather (artificial leather – MADE IN GERMANY).

Both materials are water-repellent and offer the dog good protection. Important: The backpacks are not 100 percent waterproof. This is not possible due to the need for air circulation, which must be ensured. The inside of the rucksack is also made of high-quality, dirt-repellent materials. This means that no matter how wet, dirty or muddy your furry friend is. Simply sit inside and rinse the rucksack with water in the shower or in the garden after the tour and dry it off.

The dog carrier backpack has a window. This is closed with a zipper. The 3D mesh is translucent and air permeable. How to open the window? Open the zipper, roll up the 3D mesh and fasten it on top with the small buckle.

The ergonomically shaped shoulder straps and back panel are padded with 3D mesh. This, in combination with the hip belt and sternum strap, ensures a comfortable fit. Inspired by the large, professional climbing backpacks, the TARIGS MountainRock Backpack has two removable metal bars. These ensure that the back of the backpack remains vertical even under heavy load. This ensures a perfect wearing comfort. The absolute USP of our TARIGS MountainRock Backpack. Another unique feature of our backpack is the intelligent metal frame. Thanks to the stability of the opening, this allows you to simply place your dog in the backpack from above.

There are two mesh pockets on the right side of the dog carrier backpack. (The backpack in Small has one mesh pocket.) The larger pocket is perfect for a large water bottle. The smaller pocket is ideal for poop bags, treats and much more. On the other side, there is a large zipped pocket on the outside. E.g., another water bottle fits in. Inside the backpack is another zipped pocket. You can easily store all important items, such as keys, wallet and much more.

On both sides of the backpack are air holes along the back for ventilation. Air holes and window (made of 3D mesh) ensure good air circulation. The 3D mesh is translucent and air permeable.

The solid and waterproof bottom of the dog backpack is especially important for the comfort of your dog when carrying in a backpack. The stable floor is cushioned about 1 cm thick and ensures that your dog does not “sag”. The strap in the backpack is used to attach and thus secure your dog. However, we always recommend using a harness and attach to the carabiner of the tether. Of course, the dog backpack also has a sturdy handle to carry the backpack.

The first dog carrier backpack for dogs up to 20 kg (maximum load), which allows the dog to sit in a natural position. The 20 kg MountainRock Backpack is suitable for medium to large dogs such as many Australia Shepard, Border Collie, Large Spitz and Whippet.

  • Size (WxHxD): approx. 40 x 70 x 30 cm
  • Window: approx. 40 – 60 cm
  • Backpack weight: approx. 2.9 kg
  • 2 zippered pockets on the hip fins

Please note that due to the size and its load capacity, the dog backpack is only suitable for tall (from 170 cm, depending on the back length) and physically fit people.

The hiking backpack for dogs is equipped with air holes and the window, so that ventilation is provided. If it is very warm outside, it will also be warm in the backpack, regardless of the material. So please pay attention to the “rules”, which otherwise apply on warm days for your dog.

There are numerous situations where a backpack for carrying dogs and cats (hiking backpack for dogs) is surprisingly practical. This includes…

  • Trips by bus or train (for example to the vet)
  • Long walks with puppies / older dogs
  • Extensive hikes
  • Bike / mountain bike tours

and much more.

  • Set the backpack wide.
  • Put your dog inside from above.
  • Attach your dog to the backpack with a harness.
  • Close the backpack.
  • Change seat direction again and again if your dog does not do it by itself. This ensures an ideal weight distribution.
  • The shoulder straps must be adjusted according to the application.

    I purchased this for my 12 year old Pug so he can join me and my German Shepherd on long walks. He is quite happy to sit in the bag when he gets tired and seems quite comfy.

    The price of the bag made me hesitate initially but I thought based on the reviews that I would take the chance on it. I’m glad I did as it is quite sturdy and comfortable to wear despite my dog being a chunky 10kg. There wasn’t really another bag on the market that was designed to take a dog that weight which also allowed the dog to sit normally.

    The material is a bit squeaky as you walk though and is a little irritating. I tend to keep the flap open so he can stick his head out while we are walking as the webbed material is quite thick so I’d be reluctant to close it on him as it does get quite hot.

    The only part of the bag I dislike is the clip on the inside to secure your dog, it’s quite fiddly to open it and there are more user friendly clips available that would make it easier to unclip him when I’m taking him out.

    Liebes TARIGS-Team,

    ich wollte Ihnen gerne eine positive Bewertung für den MountainRock Backpack zukommen lassen. Wir haben diesen Rucksack für unseren großen Zwergdackel gekauft und sind sehr zufrieden damit. Ohne die Sitzerhöhung im TARIGS Rucksack würde es für Ihren Hund etwas knapp werden – dank der Sitzerhöhung hingegen kann er bequem herausgucken! Der Rucksack bietet genug Platz für Ausrüstung und Proviant.

    Einer der Gründe warum wir uns für den MountainRock Backpack von TARIGS entschieden haben war zweifelsohne die hohe Qualität des Rucksacks, gepaart mit einem ansprechenden Design. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir jedoch die zahlreichen Empfehlungen in der Dackel-Community, die uns bei unserer Entscheidung sehr geholfen haben.

    Ich möchte mich auch bei Marie aus dem Kundenservice bedanken, die uns bei der Auswahl des Rucksacks und beim Messen des Hundes geholfen hat. Die Beratung war ausgezeichnet und hat uns sehr bei der Auswahl des passenden Rucksacks geholfen.

    Wir sind überzeugt, dass wir mit dem MountainRock Backpack eine hervorragende Wahl getroffen haben und freuen uns auf zukünftige Abenteuer mit unserem Hund.

    Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
    Elfriede Meier

    Der Tarigs Mountain Backpack ist ein echter Gamechanger für uns. Der sieht super stylisch aus und ist bei uns auf Reisen immer mit dabei. Im Zug fällt Milo überhaupt nicht auf und wir brauchen keine extra Tasche, beim wandern kann er irgendwann einfach rein hüpfen und wird getragen. Und wenn er mal offiziell irgendwo nicht mit rein darf, kann man ihn so doch mal kurz unbemerkt mitnehmen. Wir haben den Rucksack in M für unseren 2,7 kg leichten Zwergpudel und passend dazu den kuscheligen Snuggle Bag in M. Eine toller Kombi.

    Der Rucksack macht einen sehr hochwertigen und praktischen Eindruck. Toll! Leider ist S für meinen Labrador Retriever Welpen (8Wochen) schon zu klein. Ich werde deshalb L bestellen.

    Ich habe mir und meinem Hund den Rucksack zu Weihnachten für unseren Winterurlaub geschenkt. Den Peakstone haben wir schon. Daher ist auch keine Eingewöhnung nötig. Der erste Eindruck ist sehr vielversprechend. Auf jeden Fall eine Ergänzung zum Peakstone, mit dem wir auch sehr zufrieden sind.
