My border collie actually pulls less on the uphill now that he's carrying his own water, which I didn't expect. The vest sits high enough on his shoulders that it doesn't rub, and he stopped trying to shake it off after the first mile.

Took this on a six mile singletrack loop and my shepherd carried her own water the whole way without slowing down. The vest sits high enough on her back that it doesn't rub her shoulders, which was my main worry. She actually gets excited now when I pull it out of the closet.

My dog finally stops lagging behind on our morning runs now that he's carrying his own water and snacks in this vest. The fit stays snug without rubbing his shoulders, which was my biggest worry. Two months in and it's holding up great on rocky singletrack.
