| For people that have doggy car seats for multiple dogs So now that I have another yorkie, I am in the market for one of those snoozer car seats but I have a question. Can I fit 2 yorkies in one of those lookout car seats? It is so hard to see what would work best when I'm not seeing them in person. I saw the big one that they advertise but that looks like it'll be way too big. Their combined weight is only 7lbs lol I was thinking i could add another harness seatbelt securer thing and fit both of them in a small one but not sure if that is even possible and I don't want to go buy one and not be able to do that. Anyone have any tips or can tell me what they do with their dogs in the car. Thanks!

| I have this one for my two, a 6 pounder and a 12 pounder, and it's plenty big. We drove to Texas and back and they did great. I don't use the tethers on the seat because it's so light weight though. Instead I tether them directly to the car's seat back. This helps keep the tethers from getting tangled around legs and tummies when the move around and it's a lot more secure attaching them to the seat. Plus the tethers on the seat are waaaaay too long to keep them in the seat where they belong. [IMG]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51G4wlq... |

| Oh that is perfect! I was worried that they didn't make one that wasn't too bulky but would fit 2 dogs!

| I have this one for my 2 boys Snoozer Black My Buddy Lookout at PETCO it's big enough for them both to lay down and sleep in, although my 2 are much bigger than yours at 6lbs and 13lbs! We love the Snoozer |

| I recently added out first Soozer seat, and I faced the exact same dilemma as you!! I have two small poodles, and their combined weight is also 7 pounds. I purchased the luxury lookout Snoozer seat in medium... (it is the largest size in this style before it goes to the my buddy). I love love love this seat for mine, and it is perfect for the two of them. I ordered an extra tether directly from snoozer's site(not where I purchased the seat). I was able to purchase the extra tether for $8, and they sent it in express shipping free. My two have plenty of room in this seat. I also do love that this seat sits higher...bc with their small size, they can lay down in their seat and still see outside. They seem to love it, and they took to it immediately with not one issue! Good luck finding the right one for your two!! |

I purchased a medium Snoozer as a second seat to use in other vehicles, as I have a medium PetGear seat that I permanantly keep buckled in the backseat of my car. I thought they be the same size, but the medium Snoozer is much bigger. I only have one yorkie, but two could easily fit in a medium.

I have this one as well (in grey) for my 7 and 5 pounders. They both can lay down comfortably and during the winter, I add a blanket for extra warmth. It takes up one seat in my small car, so it's great for us
