Works perfectly for me, with my cat.
I just took my cat for her first walk today! She went in it right away (of course, cats love small spaces), I zipped it up and walked her down to the street and around back up our winding path (fairly good distance). While she didn’t outright purr while walking (but she did when I first put her in it), she was calm and attentive to everything outside. She was against my chest–I wore it to the front instead of the back–so could feel my body heat through the backing–and was soothed by it and the enclosed space. I’ll now start taking her for walks with my dog, working her up to a full walk little by little.I’ve been looking for something that would be small enough to keep her snug, but large enough for her to move and see out of, trying to find something that was made for front carrying, but couldn’t find anything. I didn’t want the front carrier by Kyjen because it only had a draw string for the front which makes the top very small. And, I’m not positive she couldn’t work her way out of the drawstring closure. I wanted a zippered carrier that maintained the top space as large as the bottom, and inescapable.As to the durability and style of the pack: It seems very well made, as well made as regular backpacks I’ve purchased for myself in the past. While I can’t close the top strap that would ordinarily go across the top of the chest, as it’s now going across the width of my upper back, the other straps are easily adjusted and work fine without using the chest strap. I can put the thick strap across the back of my waist and draw the straps in tightly, very easily. I like the pockets for carrying treats for her and my dog. So I have my hands free to walk my dog, hold the cat, hold whatever else I need in my backpack pockets, and take them both with me more often.My cat is about 12 lbs so weight is not an issue. Of course, cats are more flexible in their positions than dogs are so it really depends on the shape and maneuverability of your animal rather than just poundage. I think my cat would fit quite well with 5 extra pounds on her, but probably no bigger. Since I don’t see her gaining weight, it doesn’t matter. In my case, it works just as I’d hoped it would, is as well-made as I wanted and expected, arrived quickly and is perfect.First other place I’ll try this is at Petsmart when I go for food, etc.

Outward Hound PoochPouch & Puppak Carrier
When you have a dachshund, or, in my case, a mini dachshund (or any dog with a long back), you have to be very careful about what type of carrier you use. Your puppy or adult has to be able to lay down in the carrier to prevent back injuries with those long backs. Carriers where they have to sit up are just not very comfortable or safe for a long back puppy. Now, finding carriers that allow this is not as easy as one would think. Not many carriers actually allow them to lie down like this. When I saw this carrier, I knew it was one I would need to try. My puppy is only 13 weeks old (9 weeks when I got her) so I could not put her on a leash and just walk her as she was not fully vaccinated and our vet said not until she is 22 weeks old. This means, a lot of carrying puppy in my future. I needed a carrier. This one works and is comfortable for both of us!I put a blanket inside to give her something soft to lay on, and throw a couple of her favorite toys inside and she is happy.PROS:The carrier has a collar/harness clip inside to hook to her harness to keep her safe and prevent her from jumping out.There is a very nice, large pocket on it where you could keep training treats, your keys, or wallet. My phone fits perfectly in this pocket which is very convenient.When she is in the carrier, the shoulder strap is very comfortable for me.The sides are adjustable to make sure she can see, get in and out, and keep her level on my hip.There are nice side vents to allow for air flow through the carrier, not just over it.CONS:I do wish that the adjustable side straps were on the opposite end as the collar/harness clip because she thinks it is a great chew toy but that is the only thing I would see as a con.Overall, I do see it as a great carrier for any puppy but very useful for my mini dachshund and any other long back puppers out there.Would be great if they made it in other colors as well, but the grey is very nice and I cannot complain. If you want a comfortable carrier where your puppy can lie down, this is a great one to try.

Buen producto para transportar a tu mascota; siempre y cuando no supere 10kg max.En mi caso intenté con un muchacho pug de 3años y va justo. SerÃa mejor para muchach@s de razas más pequeñas.

Edit: looking at the advertisement photos again and realized you can cross cross the straps thus no need for mwe to add a buckle. I tried this and it solves the issue of the straps slidding off.Overall a pretty good carrier. My dog is about 9lbs (15 yrs old), a standard yorkie. Plenty of room and he can sit comfortably. Needed something for both winter and summer so this seemed like a good fit as I can add blankets to keep him warm and for summer lots of good airflow. Overall it fits good (I’m 5ft). One big design flaw though is that it keeps wanting to slid off the shoulders if you don’t have your back straight. I am going to add a buckle strap behind my shoulders and that should do the trick. The quality is very good and I’m happy with it but will definitely add the strap in the back so it doesn’t slide. We’ve used this for walks around the neighbourhood and one mountain trip.

Tengo un Jack Russell de 7.5kg y cabe perfecto en la mochila, y puedo llevar extras como premios, correa, juguetes y botella (chica) de agua en la misma mochila sin que vaya incómoda.Dudo mucho que haya perros a los que les guste meterse sin pelear un poco desde la primera vez, pero con paciencia se les puede entrenar para que se metan con gusto. Me tomó un par de horas de entrenamiento para que aceptara meterse bien la primera vez, pero ya que la lleve de paseo un par de ocasiones se mete a la mochila sin problemas.La mochila se siente firme y llevo a mi perra sin riesgo de que se caiga, y de sentir que fuera necesario puedo apretar el strap de cintura aunque hasta ahora no lo he necesitado.
