Travel Safely with Dog Seat Belts

Dog Seat belts for pets protect not only the animal, but the drivers and passengers in a car or truck as well. Whether preventing a frightened dog from jumping into the front seat and distracting a driver or being hurt in a crash, dog seat belts can help keep your family safe while traveling.

Disclaimer: Based on the testing tools available in the industry, it is difficult to know exactly what happens to a dog in a vehicle crash. However, a dog being harnessed will likely reduce the chances of the pet being injured by hitting other objects or occupants in the vehicle. It also protects the dog from injuries associated with sudden stops and starts.
According to the federal government safety standards and accident statistics, passengers are safest when restrained in center rear back seat. If your vehicle has a forward-facing back seat, we strongly recommend attaching this harness to the center rear seat belt. This harness is to be used with seats that face forward. Do not place dog on rear facing or side facing vehicle seats.
Do not use this device if any pieces are damaged or missing under any circumstance. Cut, frayed, or damaged belts must never be used. You must follow the instructions for this dog restraint harness or you may significantly increase the risk of injury to your dog. Failure to adjust and fasten the harness system correctly may result in the dog being thrown from the restraint in a collision.

AIR BAG WARNING: Exercise caution in using this restraint in a seat equipped with an airbag. In an accident, an air bag may strike the dog and cause serious injury or death to dog. Most dashboard airbag covers are marked with “SRS”; most side impact “SIPS.”

VEHICLES WITHOUT SEAT BELTS: If your vehicle does not have an existing seat belt system, this harness can be attached to cargo ties. We recommend using no less than a 24kn carabineer (a metal ring used in mountain climbing).
