| Car seat question...... I was looking at both the Stow Away and Lookout car seats and they both look nice. Does anyone use either of these? I'd like to know how well they work first for the dog and second for the ease of use as far as putting them in and out when they're needed. Also, do either of these have a strap/clasp to hook onto a harness like a safety restraint? |

| Teri, I have 5 Lookout Seats and love them. My gang loves them which is even more important. I keep them in the backseat (best protected spot for your dogs away from the airbags) or 1 on the console (airbags don't deploy here) depending on who I am taking with me. Yes they all do come with straps to attach to their harness. If you do a search on YT for lookout seats you will see many comments from members who use these seats.

| Thank you Cindy. We have a 4 door truck so they would be in the back seat with no chance of an airbag hitting them. Believe me...I know first hand the damage airbags can do and I wouldn't want to have either one of my boys hurt like that! But, if you look at the other side of the coin...I know what good they can do too! Anyway...I'm glad to hear they do have a safety strap because I know my boys wouldn't stay in them if they didn't! |

| Doggy car seats [FONT=Arial]I have 2 outward hound car seats in the back seat of my chevy tracker.. My boys do very well in them. I have endured a lot of teasing from my friends and family, but it's "safety first" for my boys! I recommend them. My yorkie always wanted to put his feet on the steering wheel and obstruct my eyesight. The car seats make it much easier on me and safer. |

| I LOVE the stowaway! That's our next carseat. Loki is too big for his. He can sit and lie down still, but he is cramped. We have the outward hound one and the leash clip attaches to a harness. It's fine, but not safe enough, IMO.
