Well I got mine I was not impressed but My dogs love it. So now what. I am going to look into making one a little more sturdier like nvngirl said. Linda |
3 Attachment(s) We have the Snoozer Console carseat. I love it!!!!!! And most importantly so does Annie. She is able to see out all of the windows. Even the front. I also struggled with what size to get. I ended up with the regular snoozer console for pets up to 4 lbs. The next size up would not fit my console in my Explorer. It was way to big. It comes with a strap that holds onto the console it self and then two straps that you secure to the driver and passenger seat. There is a bump on the back but that is what help it from going forward. We have very curvy mountain passes here and that carseat did not move at all what so ever!!! I ordered mine off e-bay shipping was free and I was able to customize the colors. The pics below are of Annie in her car seat. |

I see where you say that it fits up to 4 lbs, but is Annie more than 4 lbs? My Max is 5 lbs, sometimes 6 (when he's not exercising enough). That was the reason I decided not to get that particular car seat. Is Annie able to curl up and sleep in it also? Those were my main concerns. It's hard, b/c I can't find one to see in person and I don't want to waste my money. |
I've got a full car seat in the back, but my issue is how to keep him in it. He always wiggles out of his harness or the buckle. This last time I was headed to Deception Pass, next thing I know he was out and half way out the window. I lunged across the passenger and grabbed by his nubby tail with one hand and hit the automatic window upper with the other. Finally made it over to the side and then fell apart. I'm in the boycot carseat stage now. He's calm on my lap but freaks and flips in the seat until he gets out. :( |
No but I sure would like one. I wonder if it would fit in my Rondo. |

Tatum is about 5.5 lbs. and fits in ours just fine - to sit up and look around or to lay down to sleep. She lays with her head propped on the edge when she sleeps but could lay down completely curled up inside the seat if she wanted. We have the same one. |

I went out and took pictures the best I could to try and help you. Now you know that we are not to talk about a girls weight :D, but in this case:D Annie weighs 5.5lbs. She has never been one to really curl up in a ball she likes to sleep stretched out. In the one pic with her in the carseat and the measuring tape she actually has 3 inches on the end. She just has so darn much hair its hard to see that. I also put in a light colored towel so that you could see her better in it. 2 post with pics post 1 of 2 |

Does anyone use a console carseat Not sure what kind mine is but is was $50 and it has to go in the front seat, bucket seats, it straps around the seat and the head rest. I can hook Trickse to it with her harness but she will not sit still and got it wrapped around her neck, I almost had a wreck to save her, SOOO, I put her in and do not hook her up and she does stay but I just read that if you have an airbag, DO NOT put them in the front seat. |

Yes, if an airbag can kill a human baby in a car seat, I would hate to see what it would do to a yorkie. My Honda airbags don't come on in the passenger seat unless there is at least 60 lb. of weight on the seat. But most cars don't do that. Some do have a manual turn off. But I would never put a dog or child there (on the seat) with the air bags on. Mine is the Snoozer one like in post #16. I got it at JC Penney Online. But I think they were clearing them out. Not sure if they carry them anymore. They do sell them for pretty good prices on ebay or at the pet boutiques. I think some YT'rs even carry them. Try Tinkerbell's Closet. |

No problem, I don't mind helping at all :p I don't think it will squish down that much...... :confused: while it is made of foam it is made of really thick foam.... OK I am heading out to try and squish it. I checked it out. Now the base(bottom) is firm(not solid, as in hard) because all 4 sides are glued to it. I turned the carseat over and measured the bottom. It is molded for the console so it wont slip. But the bottom only measured 6 3/4 inches and them it like flute,maybe a tulip, would be a better example. Narrow at the bottom, but opens going up toward the top(sides) and the sides do have more give for the squish. So I really think you will be OK. It will just be a snug fit. |
