Wow, those are two ends of the quality spectrum, for sure. That K9 stuff is amazing, but yeah, too expensive for me. So you know them? The outward hound one does look good for casual walks. Those are some low prices.
They look big, but unlike the approach pack they have compression straps to shrink them and bring the weight in closer to the body. If I wanted to pack with Tyson, that's probably the bag I'd buy for him. The Shibas are too small for it.
@brada1878 - I had no idea the guy(s) at Signature K9 are forum member(s). They are literally like 50 miles west of me in Roanoke. That is awesome.
Anyway, we have ordered a few things for work through them over the past couple of years. They have great service and the gear that they carry is pretty rugged.
I have the palisades pack, and yeah in pics it might look huge and a bit like it is turning your dog into a table, but it is a great harness! Sometimes you can find used ones on ebay or craigslist. My friend got one for like $40 and it had never been used.
