Car Seat Dogs Natural Tendencies
Dogs have a natural tendency to be curious. They want to get outside in the fresh air and they want to see what is going on around them. They are social animals and should be treated as such. Keeping the dog's safety in mind, there are car seats that actually boost your dog up, much like that of a child's booster seat. The boost should be enough for most dogs to be able to see out the windows. These Dog Car Seats allow your dog to see what's going on while being safely strapped in by a harness connected to their collar.
(A safety note - don't let your dog hang his head out the window for fresh air. Debris from the road or air could get in his eyes. Cracking the window a little is usually enough to give them a nice breeze without putting them in danger.)
Another reason to use a dog car seat to restrain your dog is to control when and where he goes potty. Even a well-trained dog is likely to have accidents when he is not in familiar territory. Nothing puts a damper on a road trip faster than the dog having an accident in the car. The odor and mess can be difficult to deal with on the road. The Dog Car Seat will help him know not go potty and to wait for you to let him outside to do his duty. Just don't keep the dog couped up too long before giving him a break from the car.
Think Prevention
The number one reason to use Dog Car Seats is to protect your dog in case of a car accident. Should you have to punch the brake quickly or you get hit by another car, you want your dog to remain safely in his seat, just like your kids. A dog can easily be tossed around the car with a sudden jerk or be thrown out of the car upon impact. Dog Car Seats can protect your dog from these dangers.
The Convenience of Dog Car Seats
Today's car seats for dogs are very sophisticated. They provide not only safety and security features, but are also adjustable, comfortable, padded, raised, fashionable, washable and collapsible for easy storage.
