No that's not good for either of you.
Buddy is a larger Yorkie so I can't use a carrier.
I have bought him a seat belt harness and he sits in the
passenger seat on his blankie next to me. If I have to slam on
the brakes he remains in his seat. Also he's not all over me
while I'm driving.
We had a terrier mix and my daughter took him in the car and
put him in the back seat. He jumped on her as she was coming
to a stop and she couldn't see and slammed into the car that was
also stopped in front of her. She wasn't injured but her car was a mess
and so was the car in front of her. No more riding in the car for Teddy
after that, at all! It's just not worth the risk.
Be safe. |
