Omg Yikes!!!


It scares me to read that so many of you are not using crates when your dogs are in the car with you...

What if your dog is not restrained and you are in an accident? Even a small bump on your car can make the air bags go off, and then your beloved pet would be fatally injured.

Car booster seats for pets will not protect them from this either, and can cause a dangerous "hanging" accident if you are involved in a crash...and what if the police has to pry you out of the car? Your little one could escape in the panic and get lost or worse...

Please, please use a crate in your cars!
As for the car sickness issues, it is usually that they are nervous and not used to it. Take them for very short trips and reward them whan you exit the vehicle. Get them used to going to "happy" places, not just the vets or groomers.
