Looking for bag for ER evacuation purposes as well. Will this hold 3-7 days worth food & water for my pet with extra room for other necessities?

This pack is intended for a shorter duration such as hiking, or long walks. I maybe able to carry 2 average meals in this pack. Obviously, if the dog is much more active, it would need more nutrition. For an 80lb dog, this pack goes from the shoulder to the back side of the ribs, and covers the side.

I have a medium pack for a 90lb dog. For a typical hike, in each side I put a 1 liter nalgene bottle, a small bowl, and a ziplock bag with three cups of dry food. That's a day's worth. There's enough room left over for food for maybe another day, but not 3-7.

Hi, this is a lightweight but well made carrier, I do not use it to carry my yorkie, but leave ir belted in to keep her restrained when I am driving in my car. If you are using it to carry your pet, I think a Sherpa brand airline bag may be a better bet, they are lightweight, and have a handle and a shoulder strap. I am very pleased with this purchase.

I used the case for my 17pound dog and found the zipper to not be strong enough for me to let it out of my site.i would ask airline if you have that ?.good luck

I had a 45 lbs dog and a 13 lbs dog in the same bag for about a month and a half. They are free fed. If you Don't free feed I would think the bag will last you about 2 months. At least a month. If you supplement dog food with other things it will last even longer. If you purchase a 30 lbs bag I would check it after a month and see how you are doing on supply than go from there.

No - I don't believe so. I found a USMC dry bag of almost the same interior size. I believe I read something like a raincoat which could be purchased for it. This pack is a serious system and I am well beyond the age and health to strap it on unless I make it considerable smaller and lighter. I keep emergency cooking supply's, medical supply's, and all the survival gear I can think of including quiet a lot of loaded magazines of different calibers. I purchased it due to the fact it's mil-spec which speaks for its self. good luck

This would work pretty well for that. It is not completely spill proof but that might not be a big deal on a plane. I wouldn't fill it before boarding. You could fill it from a water bottle mid flight. With a smaller dog you might not have to worry about the dog knocking it over like me large dog did.

It is sturdy - but it can also be broken down in a matter of minutes. I am assuming that the airlines would be civil with your pet - making it something that they would most likely accept.

Might be a little smooched so if your pet is small it might be ok then once the place gets up just pull it out a little inbetween your legs but the carrier is flexible so as long as your pet doesn't take up the whole carried and it has a good amount of room left over I think it should be fine. I'm comparing it to a bag I just brought on a plane as a carry on that fit under the seat semi smooshed

If your Dog can handle the psycological side affects and your cats are okay with a bouncy ride...but the side bags do not have air holes, not so sure how you would keep them in the backpack. Good Luck

I know the Sherpa bag size M is approved and that one is 17x11x10.5, for pets up to 16lb. Thats the biggest one approved as a carry on. I think the one you are looking at are too big. If the pets not a carry on size he/she needs to be in a approved plastic or metal crate. Good luck :)

I guess it depends on how much equipment you're lugging around. It's a smaller gym bag than most use but it's deep and actually holds quit a bit. I used it travel for 5 days and it held all those clothes, shoes, toiletries, etc. I think you'de be safe but I guess you're the only one who can make that determination. :)

It is a great pack for shorter trips 3-4 days, I fit my sleeping bag and tent inside and strapped the pad down under the hood. You could make it work for longer trips if you get some extra straps, there are places to strap things on just no straps. I personally have not strapped anything to the outside, so I can't remark on how easy it is or the balance of the pack once it is loaded down. I have 2 large dogs (100+lb wolf/husky mixes)that carry packs on longer trips and anything that doesn't fit in my bag goes in theirs. If I didn't have the dogs I think I would lean towards a different pack for longer trips, but like I said a 3-4 day trek it works great.

Not recommended beacause the ventilation in it will not be satisfactory. to that purpose, i highly recommend you to use own bags designed to carry dogs, in that way it is healthy and safe for the animal. good luck!

From Safe-T-Proof's website I found this. Does not list how much the bags of water hold and the photo doesn't show 12 pouches so take this with a grain of salt: (1) Large backpack, (4) latex gloves, (2) hooded ponchos, (2) 12 hour snap lights, (12) packs of purified water, (2) 2400 calorie food bars, 36 piece essential first aid kit, (2) dust masks, (2) Tissue Packs, (1) whistle w/ lanyard, (2) Thermal space blankets.

Having done such trips in the past with other side-bags I would say definitely no. Just big enough for maybe a couple bottles of water and some sandwiches etc for lunch.

It will be way more than you need. My 20lb dog has ample room in it. It is quite large and can be cumbersome getting in and out of public transportation (the reason I got it.) It is secure and well made though. If I could have gotten something smaller I would have.

You're welcome. Try to look for a bag that is advertised to be waterproof, else wise you may not be able to make claims in case the product doesn't satisfy you for that reason. Best of lucks!
