| Car Seat I am looking at purchasing a car seat. Can you tell me which one you recommend? I know some hang on the seat while others sit on the seat. Also, some have a padding whiles others don't. Any advice?

| I use an Outward Hound seat. The top buckles around the seat head rest, and the bottom buckles around the seat. Fast & easy to put on. It has no traction in it for them though, so I put in a tiny flat pillow so she isn't slidding around in it. I like it. Took her a bit getting use to, she'd rather be up against me, but this is much safer. |

| I have a truck so I got the Lookout Console that goes between the two front seats. It's great and Mina loves sitting between my husband and I. |

| I have a lookout carseat and prefer this one. Small Lookout I Pet Booster Car Seat 18 Ib Dog Carrier - eBay (item 350337298483 end time Mar-01-11 12:42:42 PST) I even got the newer version to match the jeep and didn't like it since it was not as deep as the old one. My binky loved it though she could see out the window in the 4runner it sits up that high. they also make console versions of these for smaller dogs. I always put mine in the back seat anyways due to air bags not being safe for them just shop around though for the best price on one |

| We have the Lookout also. I'm not sure what size, but I can get all three girls in it. They love being up high so they can see out. When not in the car, they use it as a stepladder to see out the window at squirrels or a couch...just to lounge in. Easy to clean also. |

| We have the outward hound...Bevo loves it, but the only problem is it tends to slide lopsided around the frame. It is the one that straps around the headrest and back of the seat. But, for his small size, it has plenty of room for him to roll around and play!

| Callie has a snoozer lookout and loves it. I also bought my mom one for her rescue Sammy and he seems to be liking it. Just recently we bought one big enough to hold my moms rescue and Callie when we take them places together like to the dog store, events, and on trips because Callie kept trying to get in Sammy's carseat when we would put them next to each other

| We have the lookout carpet and totally love it. I actually have the small one and the large one and the console one. Maggie stands looking ahead and hot rod stands looking at me.

| I use the kind that hangs because without the weight on the seat the airbags is not activated on my car. If your car does not have this feature, make sure you put carseat in the back, whatever kind you end up buying. |
