    No walk too long. No dog left behind.

    There are moments on every adventure when your dog needs a lift. The end of a long day when their legs have given everything. A trail that turns technical. A paw that needs resting.

    None of those moments have to end the walk. That's what the Hitch Hiker is for.

    Dual locking zippers open the pack wide for easy loading mid-trail. Once inside, the integrated harness keeps them secure and facing forward - still part of the adventure, just along for the ride. Cinch straps hold them close to your back, and air mesh side panels keep things comfortable as you move.

    The human side is just as considered - padded shoulder straps, adjustable torso length, and a supportive hip belt for the long haul, with pockets for the essentials and an external stretch pocket for a flask or extra layer.

    Sizing is based on your dog's girth measurement. Comfortably accommodates dogs up to 40 lbs (approx. 18 kg). Hip belt fits waists 21–58 in (53–149 cm).
