Rafey saddlebags – advice!!

[Sweetypye]

As I said I have nothing against them if you want to use them, I am too tight to buy one, they are easily available from the net just google.

Cesar Milan promotes them for this reason, I remain cynical about a dog’s understanding of it though…………

As mine are continually in and out of water, mud, droppings and it would interfere with them being able to wriggle under/through stiles/fences etc…..it would not be practical for me or mine. :ok:

Fortunately mine do not drop toys……….

I have to pick up I am living in the country but it’s also the Jurassic coast and down here it’s a thousand pound fine if you leave it even under a bush, my dogs do not have to dump every where as they are not eating kibble there are bins provided everywhere here and they are emptied daily

If I am walking miles over open country side filled with rabbit, deer, sheep, horse, cow, fox, badger, bird etc droppings I aint going to be carrying poo bags!

I kick it under the growth off the beaten path.

How much poo does your dog DO if you need to carry the bags (and presumably poop) in a large holdall?????????????????????? :what:

Cheers Sweetypye,  had seen a couple of those – googled it myself a while ago, but still unsure which to get.  I’d rather not pay £60 if I don’t have to, but if the expensive ones are the best (most comfortable/safe etc) then £60 it is.

Seems like the higher cost ones have better fit/strap padding/quick release features – but it may be that the cheaper ones are just as good.

Don’t think I’d go for that last one, looks HUGE!!  And I’ve checked out various weight capacities, as I wouldn’t want to overload him.

They did have some doggy back packs at pets at home

Yeah…. saw those a few weeks ago… May take his lordship in to see if he fits in one.  He LOVES going into pet shops coz I’m such a sucker…  It’s like “mum, I really want one of those things… and one of those… and one of those… and FIVE of those…”

Or at least that’s what I imagine him saying.  Generally he gets what he points his nose at in a lustful way.  So I may wait until I’ve been paid before I venture in!
