Abstract
The carrier device for saddles is a device intended for mounting behind a saddle and provides a way for a horseback rider to carry a dog or other items that might not be suitable for a traditional saddlebag or backpack. The carrier device for saddles may be made from flex tree material, and has four vertical sides and an open top. Holes in the front and rear walls of the device are sized to accommodate the head and legs of a dog. A harness is provided inside the device that secures a dog in a prone position on the back of a horse. The device attaches to the saddle girth. Two inserts are provided that can accommodate different sizes of dogs, or to allow other items to be carried when a dog is not aboard.
