It hangs off the back of the car seat and is attached with straps, he is attached to the car seat with a clip to his harness. The seat sits up high so Sprocket can see out the window at the cars and people going buy. Now Sprocket is 10lbs and he can lay down in the seat and nap if he choses to, though he very rarely does, too busy watching the cars and people outside and I take him everywhere. The seat gets a good workout. Sturdy  |
I know quite a few people who have the car seat that you are describing and they really like it. The one we have costs more( I think )because it is set up more like a baby's front facing car seat and hooks into the seatbelt. I'm glad you like your carseat and that your Sprocket is safe in the car. Another reason to have dogs in car seats or seat belts is bc if you have an accident and your dog isn't restrained he could easily run out of the car if you are hurt and someone helps you out of the car. I have tragic stori es about dogs who were not hurt in the accident but were hit running out of the car bc they were frightened.
