Another vote here for the hard sided carriers, buckled into the seat belt. From the time they are pups they ride in their carriers in the car.
I also saw a beautifully built aluminum carrier, but they didn't have a small enough size for Razzle, or a big enough size for my big boy.
We too were rear ended once, luckily with no dogs in the van, but there were groceries on the back two seats that ended up on the floor, and our big crates crashed into the back seats as well. Now the big crates are affixed in the very rear of the va , and so far no sliding of the crates forward.
