I worry about the soft top of some of the pods that I've seen but it seems a good way to travel with a dog far more safely than those tethers that all failed one of the safety tests and many of the old-fashioned car seats where they just sit in the carrier unrestrained or worse, letting them ride loose in the seat. I usually put Tibbe in his hardshell carrier with larger soft toys and a blanket and seat-belt it in place but that's an imperfect method also if the seatbelt guides that the belts go through fail in a bad crash.
