This was a study of the performance of pet restraints in car crashes.

I commend the group that is looking into car safety for our pets, but I am annoyed that they would put out such a vague report that is misleading and not helpful.

I believe they tested only a handful of products that are sold as pet car restraint packages -- harness & tether. Of the ones they tested, all failed.

The harness I use for my boys has never been car crash tested, but I believe it is strong enough, and my dogs wouldn't fall out of it, and it wouldn't cause injury to my dogs. My primary concern is the tether that clips onto the harness.

Here is the previous discussion: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...fety-test.html
