I have a tiny little laundry type basket that I put her blanket into the bottom of it. She usually sits perched watching the cars next to me for awhile, but she'll settle in and curl up. Makes driving with her a breeze, and I don't have to worry about her getting thrown around or jumping off of my lap while I'm driving. Buckle the basket in, and we're set to go. |

I bought Patrick a snoozer seat, but he cries and shakes like he is being skinned alive. I have tried treats, 2 different car seats, crate, dog bed, blanket...he even cries when he is on my lap. He goes to work with me everyday and he still hates it. The only time he was calm in the car was when we rode with another woman and her puppy. Then he acted like we were sitting on the couch at home....unfortunately we can't take my friend's puppy with us everytime we go out :( What to do, what to do, what to do?...he is 16 weeks now and he runs away from me whenever he thinks it is time to go in the car. |

i asked this question to the dog trainer at petco yesterday & her reply was to put her in a crate or kennel. she said in case you wrecked it would protect them from the glass is windows broke & they'd be secure if the glass did break & couldn't get out. so guess instead of a car seat i'll be buying a bigger kennel! |
I considered the console seat first, because he has tried to stand on the console many times when we first get in the car. But I drive a Toyota Rav4 and the console dimensions are too small for the Snoozer console seat.:( |

Will I am usually always home...But I did go to walmart last month and took her with me my daughter drove and jada was in my lap the first thing i thought of going down the rode was the airbags that worried me ..I went in walmart and had my daughter to stay in the jeep with her...Later she brought her in walmart in her purse lol She owed me some money and she took that and bought a plastic carrier and had her in it I think its kinda small But I freaked out cause I thought she left her in the car...I think I will take it back and get one just a little bit bigger the seltbelt it to the backseat...The only think bad about that sshe couldn't see outside:animal-pa |
Are there any car seats that are high enough that a Yorkie can see out the windows?? |
The outward hound carseat has a blow up cushion in the bottom and it straps around the head rest,(adjustable straps) so it's high enough for George to see out the window of all my car and 4WD and I just hook his harness on, he can stand, up lay down, or just look gorgeous. |
My Rav4 console is only 13" L and 7" W, so the SUV console snoozer won't fit :(. I can only hope that once Patrick starts noticing things outside the car window that he will be contented to sit in his "Lookout Snoozer" and just enjoy the ride. *crosses fingers." |
Ellie has the Travellin Dog Car Seat. I wanted a console seat but inquired about its safety. The person I asked said it is better than nothing but the back seat is a better place. Just as a child's car seat wouldn't go in the front, the dog's seat probably shouldn't either. Kennels are okay but they would need to be buckled in or they could fly in an accident. The dog could also get thrown around depending on the size of the carrier. |
I just got back from a 2200 mile road trip with chester, he has a padded harness with a spot on the top that the seat belt goes through it. I do not use it all the time, when we are out on the open road with no traffic, he just lays down on the passenger seat. |

Yesterday I decided to give the Snoozer Lookout another try. Patrick had been so distressed a couple of weeks ago when I first put him in it, that I decided to remove it until he was old enough to appreciate the view outside the car. Well, he fussed a bit this time and continued to make soft whimpering noises, but after he noticed the people in a car beside us at the first stop light, he seemed to accept sitting in it. This morning when we got in the car he actually jumped into the Snoozer seat!! Dumbfounded with shock, I hooked him up without saying a word and although he continued to whimper and shake, he sat in the seat and looked out the window without a single attempt to climb out. HOOOOORAAAY!!! for the Lookout Snoozer Car seat!! |
