| Booster Seat Tested! After all this time, I finally got a booster seat for Zoey. I had it in the car for a week but past weekend was the first time she tried it! She didn't love it but she didn't hate it either. I think she just needs to get used to it. After all, she did have a free run for the past three years. This product was also easy on my wallet so I'm pretty satisfied. |

| How cute! That looks like the car seat we ordered last week. I can't wait to get it! We also just purchased a harness for Chewie. It looks just like the one your baby is wearing except in orange. |

| Did you buy the "Solvit Tagalong"? What size did you get? I'm very happy with my purchase. I think the only "improvement" I'd make is to put a small blanket in there in case Zoey wants to burrow. Oh, that and I used another "safety leash" to extend the length. I felt the one that there was bit too short even after extending it out as much as possible. |

| Yes. We ordered it in medium up to 12 lbs. We were putting him in a carrier but he gets very car sick so we decided to try the car seat. It sits up higher than a carrier so he can look out the windows, hopefully this will help with his car sickness. Thank you for the tips on the safety leash. Quote:

| Do you have any pictures of Joel sitting in the booster seat? I bet he looked just adorable! Zoey's not crazy about the seat since she USED to have free reign in the car. But she'll have to deal with it since it's safe for everyone. lol |

| What a cutie Zoey is...she looks like she's enjoying herself. Mimi had that same car seat when I 1st got her. I took her to work w/me, it was 40min drive ea/way & she liked resting her front paws on the ledge & looking out the window. She even wore her pink doggles & people would giggle w/delight when they saw her.

| Do you mind my asking where you purchased her booster seat from? I'm not having any luck finding one for my little Rascal. |

| Adorable photo Zoey looks quite happy. Just as a warning I put my booster seat in the back seat because of the passenger side air bag. If they warn against the air bags force of impact on kids in the front seat I worry about it with Buster as well.

Here is Joel in his seat, he's also used to sitting on my lap, it's the only thing that keeps him calm so I feel bad making him go in his seat. But it's safer Also in the pic you can see his leash is around the head rest because the clip that's in the car seat doesn't reach his harness, even when I made it as big as it goes He's a lot bigger than he looks lol, I need to look for another seat though.
