HOW TO WEAR YOUR BARKPACK

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

What if my dog is between sizes?

If your dog is between sizes or needs a little extra room, we offer barkpack extenders in 2-inch, 4-inch, and 10-inch lengths to help achieve the perfect fit. Shop our barkpack extenders here. If you need help choosing the right size, we're happy to help.

How tight should the barkpack fit?

The barkpack should fit snugly without restricting movement. You should be able to fit two fingers between the straps and your dog's body.

How do I know if the barkpack is too loose?

If the barkpack shifts from side to side, rotates, or hangs away from your dog's body while walking, the straps may need to be adjusted.

Can my dog wear the barkpack without carrying anything inside?

Yes! We recommend letting your dog wear the barkpack empty at first so they can get used to the fit before carrying any items.

Should the weight be distributed evenly?

Yes. For comfort and stability, place items evenly on both sides of the barkpack.

Can my dog run, hike, and play while wearing a barkpack?

Absolutely. When properly fitted and loaded appropriately, the barkpack is designed to move comfortably with your dog during everyday adventures.
