Anyone ever use a saddle on your dog while hiking or hunting? We have the great pleasure of having a bernese mountain dog and have done some pulling with him and we are considering taking him on a mellow hunting trip this fall to test him out and see what kind of packing he can do for us. In order to do that, we need to purchase a proper saddle and start training here soon. Figuring on breaking him in on 1/2 mile walks in our back 80 increasing the amount of weight he carries reaching up to about 25 pounds (not more than 20% of his weight). Been researching a lot of options for him and it really seems like the industry isn't based around hunting but instead fashion so it's been tough. Anyone have any recommendations to look into?
