Tatonka Lastenkraxe Outdoor Pack Frame

I need a frame to carry our miniature Dachshund. He's 9 years old, has had back and neck surgery, and shouldn't walk too far. The rest of us want to go further, hence needing something to carry him with. This frame gave me lots of options to try but adding straps, different bags, different positions, and we now have it just right. The great thing is that the frame is so adaptable. There are D-rings up both sides and across the top that can be used to attach just about anything. The position of the shoulder straps is adjustable for a large variety of body lengths (height), so you can get the balance between the (excellent) hip belt and the shoulder straps just right, and carry loads all day. It's not the cheapest on the market, but quality and carefully thought out design is worth paying for.

Took this to Greece loaded with 30 kgs of camping equipment. Performs really well and allows you to attach many things to the multiple straps, hooks and loops. It's comfortable to wear and can be adjusted many ways even when you have it on. I was very impressed. Took it on the budget airlines paid for and declared as sports equipment. It survived this part of the journey well and the attached hooks loops etc allow everything to be securely fastened so no lost items. Excellent quality well designed worth the extra expense.

I only use it for a garden sprayer but it is extremely comfortable and very well made.

I cannot recommend this rucsac frame strongly enough; I have transported jerrycans full of diesel and all sorts of odd items on it without any discomfort, and it seems to be very durable.
