| Car Seat Help --- I'm looking for a car/booster seat for Mattie -- any suggestions. I found this one on ebay but not sure if it is a good one or not. http://cgi.ebay.com/small-DOG-PET-CA...QQcmdZViewItem Not sure if this link worked or not -- sorry if it didn't.

| TOO Funny...I just saw this one today on ebay and asked Rebecca another member about it too. I will let you know what she says. I was wondering if this is a good one as well. i need one for two though but I am sure I can hook another harness strap in it.

| I'm ALL for doggy car seats! The one you showed looks like a good one but it all depends on where you want to put it in the car. I chose the console lookout seat because I wanted Tatum right next to me and to be able to put someone in the passenger seat also. Below is a picture of mine (taken from a catalog). I love the console car seat but again, it's your preference on where in the car you want them to sit, how big they are and whether you have the right kind of car/console.

| We own the Cozy Car-Go car seat and we really like it. It's not perfect, but I like the way it attaches securely to the seat and I like that the girls are at the seat level, not the window level. I tried to find a good photo to show but really don't have a good one. I think there's one on ebaty right now but you can also get good deals if you just keep searching. I think I paid less than 25 for mine including shipping. But I do feel car seats are a must if you don't travel with your dog in a crate. Just my opinion.

| You have to have either a head rest or car seat clips that are built in to the seat back. That's what holds the top of the seat in place. But the major support comes from the regular seat belt which secures the main seat box to the car basically like a childs car seat would. Hope this helps

| Abbie prefers to have her little blankie in there to boost her just a bit as well. Lucy doesn't care at all as long as there's room for her to sleep! If Abbie starts hogging, Lucy jumps out (while still attached). I'm trying to break her of this bad habit and make her stay in the car seat.

| Thank you. Actually, they look kinda scruffy here but it was a long day and I wait to redo their hair with bows when we get where we're going.
