The plus side of a car seat is that usually they are raised, so your pup can still see out the window!
I am not a fan of crates (plastic or wire) in cars just because they are bulky and annoying to move around, for me.
| I do the same harness + seat belt. My little ones and I share a hatred toward cages, so we don't use those. I have seen some raised car seats for them that are not only gorgeous, but look very safe and sturdy. I have a few car seats that I've tried out, but my babies have grown out of them or disliked from the get-go.
Make sure it's sturdy and safe :thumbup: I bought one of those that have a mesh, you strap to the seat and it's about 5" off the bottom of the seat----worst thing I ever bought :(
In the middle of the expressway, Nini jumped off it and was almost strangled by one of the cords holding the thing up :eek: I had to pull to the curve and free her, I was so angry that I wanted to throw the darn thing out the window. I came to my senses and didn't litter-bug, but I was soooooo tempted :mad: |
