Car Seat: What brand do you use My "Outward Hound" broke and has been for a while. I need to get another one or even another brand. I was told I need should keep him in the back seat, like children. The "Outward Hound" would not work since it attaches around the head rest and behind the seat. What brand do you all use~? |
I use Tagalong Pet Booster Seat gotten at Pet Supplies, like yours it goes over the head rest and around the back of the seat. I have mine in the front seat with me because I LOVE seeing a dog that once got terribly car sick now loving and enjoying car rides, but it is advised to put it in the back seat, it is a safety hazard up front. My back seats folds down, so I can use it in the back. If your back has head rest and the seats folds down this can be used. same as you are using now. |
I use a Snoozer Luxury Lookout II, and I love it. The regular Snoozers are also excellent. If price is an issue, check Amazon.com. Click on every color. Some colors are deeply discounted. |
I use the Snoozer Lookout car seats too. They buckle into the back using the car seat belts. Safe and very cozy for the dog. Diana |
We have a snoozer also, but in the winter we use the Pet Gear booster seat because it has a heating pad in it for the cold mornings/days. |
Snoozer here too. We love them. I bought mine on cyber Monday and got an amazing deal. The other I purchased at Amazon for a good price too. Watch Snoozers site too. They offer discounts often. |
Here is an example of a highly discounted Snoozer on Amazon. Two of my friends bought these, and they are beautiful. I bought a medium for Katie. It has enough room for two dogs, but it's nice and comfortable for Katie. My husband ordered ours, and we paid twice what this is. These are authentic Snoozers. The price changes daily often, and it goes back to regular price. Click on the red Luxury Lookout II Snoozer. It is only $70.59, which is less than half price (list price $180.00)  Amazon |

Has anyone heard of the "Crash tested safety seat" ? |
I use a sleepy pod. http://sleepypod.com It isn't a car seat so much as a carrier. But it belts into the car and has been proven in crash tests. My girls travel with me all the time in the car, both on road trips and trips to the cottage. I feel so much safer...and Charlee loves the carrier, jumping in as soon as I open it. The bottom zips off to create a separate bed. I got Charlee used to it by starting her in the bed then adding the top, then short trips before long trips. We are leaving next week for our first plane trip and I'm happy that Charlee already is so comfortable in her sleepy pod that the new form of travel should be a breeze! Fingers crossed�� |
Is the Pod approved for airlines? |
I have a snoozer lookout II . . Galen loves it. . It even has a drawer at the bottom to put everything in it. . It is wonderful |
Car seat I have a Snoozer seat too. My dog loves it and loves to dig around in the woolly lining, LOL! He can't wait to get in there and can sit or sleep with ease. I put it in the house at first to get him used to a strange bed and he then had no problem jumping in it in the car. |
We have Snoozer seats too; the Snoozer My Buddy Lookout, and the Snoozer Luxury Lookout (both have drawers). |

Airline approval doesn't mean a thing~!All airlines have different dimensions of what can go under the seat. From my experience with Southwest of course their carriers fit, but if you fly Delta the Southwest carrier won't fit. |
I also have a Sleepypod. Bon Bon has flown in it several times. I got the Sleepypod Air, because it can be folded to a smaller size and there is no standard for different airlines and even different airplanes. No matter what, it will fit under the seat in front of me. He has plenty of room. I can get him out quickly to go through security. It’s good for dogs up to 18 pounds. |
After much research, I replaced our last car seat w/the Sleepypod. Most car seats say they’re certified but find out who’s “certifiying” them. Sleepypod claims it’s certification because it was tested just like a child’s car seat & it passed. This little one means just as much to me as my other one did when she req her car seat. It’s expensive, but she’s worth it. To help her adapt i road in the back w/her the first few trips while my husband drove. We bought a uv charged fan w/a light that we could hang over the car door for her comfort. When it’s time for us to leave she she hops right in & off we go. |
