I have to be honest, though. Your 2nd video scared me to death! Brachycephalic dogs are prone to eye problems, and although she enjoys the wind in her face, a small bug hitting her in the eye could do a lot of damage. I couldn't tell if there was a leash on her or not while she was hanging out of the window, I pray there was. Any dog is at risk of jumping out of a car window.
I am not trying to offend in any way, but we've had some members' dogs here pass away while riding in the car, one on a lap in the front seat was killed when the airbag inflated.
The safest way to travel with a dog in the car is to have them in a seatbelt restraint (they make heavy duty harnesses that clip right into the seatbelt buckle), or there are a number of carseats that keep a pup safely restrained, or some folks put them in a kennel that is then secured by the seatbelt.
If you would like some help in finding something appropriate for your pup let us know.
I sincerely mean no harm in this post, just wanting to give a head's up so that you, your family and your baby can enjoy a long life together, and forego the pain and sadness that others here have experienced already... |
Oh my I didn't mean to scare you, don't worry,
I was holding onto her harness quite tight from behind with a leash!
(Suppose I should mention that in my video)
We were only going about 25 miles an hour on a very empty road, I appreciate your concern I've heard lots of horror stories that makes me just wanna cry.
She's normally in her carrier in the back seat but on short trips I like to let her enjoy the air as much as she can.
I actually got a kwigy bo carrier because of all the positive feedback from here, I'm looking forward in getting it soon!
Thanks for all the welcomes!
