Ruffwear Palisades™ Dog Pack

The Ruffwear Palisades™ Dog Pack is a modular, high-volume dog backpack with removable saddlebags, built for multi-day hiking, trekking and outdoor adventures.

The Ruffwear Palisades™ Dog Pack is designed for dogs that go further. Built for multi-day hiking and backcountry adventures, this is Ruffwear’s highest-volume pack featuring a modular system with removable saddlebags for ultimate flexibility on the trail.

The saddlebags attach securely to a breathable standalone harness, allowing you to strip weight for shorter trips or camp excursions. With moulded and perforated EVA foam back and belly panels, the Palisades™ Pack delivers exceptional comfort, stability and ventilation for long days outdoors.

Why Choose the Ruffwear Palisades Dog Pack for Your Outdoor Adventures?

• Modular design with removable saddlebags for flexible use
• Radial cut, weight-forward saddlebags for stable load carrying
• “Flopper stoppers” help keep the pack secure and balanced
• Six points of adjustment for a precise and comfortable fit
• Breathable harness with padded handle for assisted lifting
• Internal mesh pocket and external gear loops for organisation
• Three leash attachment points for versatile control

Built for the Trail

Designed for serious adventures, the Palisades™ Pack allows your dog to carry essentials like food, water and gear safely and comfortably. The weight-forward saddlebag design ensures even load distribution, while the harness provides a secure and ergonomic fit.

For best results, it is recommended that dogs carry no more than 25% of their body weight, including the pack and contents. If your dog is new to wearing a pack, start light and gradually increase the load over time.
