The small stuff of a dog walk fills your pockets: poo bags, a handful of treats, keys, a phone. A saddle-bag harness moves it onto the dog instead, and most dogs who like a job rather enjoy being given one. The pockets sit either side of the spine where the weight balances itself, and you set off with your hands free and nothing rattling in your coat.

It is built as a harness first, with a padded body panel and faux-leather strapping that gives it a retro, streetwear look rather than the technical mountain-gear appearance of most dog packs. The whole thing weighs 150 g empty, which tells you it is designed for a light everyday load rather than expedition kit. Two side pockets close over, and it goes on and adjusts like any vest harness. Three colours are offered: blue, grey and red.

Keep the load light and even. No carrying capacity is published, so pack it by feel and split the weight evenly between the two sides, or it will slew round on the move. Growing puppies and dogs with any joint or back trouble should not carry anything at all. This is for bags and treats, not shopping. If you were expecting a carrier you wear yourself, this is not that product.

Who it's for: Owners of healthy adult dogs who want to walk hands-free and have a dog who enjoys having a job to do.
