Has anyone used this car seat? It looks interesting, especially since it says it is okay to use in the front seat.

Callie has something similar, she LOVES it (now)! At first she kept trying to jump out the side and climb up on my shoulder while I was driving, but now she sits in the seat like a big girl

I put her harness on her and hook her in to the seat and she just chills and watches the road, too cute! Less stressful driving with her this way, and not in her carrier (she would whine the whole time).

This is what we have (from PetSmart):
Outward Hound™ Deluxe Car Booster Seat

Ive seen some similar to those, the one I was thinking about buying is sold by both GW Little and In the company of dogs.

I wouldn't consider it safe for the front seat. It says it's designed for the front seat, as in it can slip over the seat headrest, etc. But no dog seat is safe with an airbag in the front seat. A Yorkie would be severely injured in the front seat if the airbag went off, unless, perhaps, inside a crate strapped to the seat. I'd put it i the backseat.

That is what I thought too, but I read it does not actually touch the seat, so the airbag won't go off. It only goes off if there is the weight of someone/something on the seat.
