Odin-Genie Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Hi, Our 13.5 year old Elkhound has severe arthritis. Our house is on a split level and access to the backyard is through a set of stairs. Do you know of any backpacks that would hold a 22kg dog so that we can carry him on the stairs? We could use the soft crates, but I was hoping for a backpack since it would be easier to carry.

Dogsfevr Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 America sell them for big dogs BUT the position they need to get into for a backpack may not be pleasant fir a severe arthritic dog . Would be maybe better looking at a emergency sling like they use for Dolphins etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
