Overview
The Ruffwear Switchbak Dog Harness is a handy hybrid between a pack and a harness, built on the Ruffwear harness platform, but has low profile pockets for short day hikes and everyday use.
This new dog harness has been designed as a harness first, and a pack second.
The low profile pockets look good when they are not loaded, but come with expansion pleats on the bottom so you four legged adventure buddy can carry their gear that they need for a day out on the trail or around town.
Features two leash attachment options: V-ring centered on the back, and reinforced webbing at the chest to redirect dogs that pull on leash.
