Would it fit in the back seat if you had someone sitting in the passenger seat though? I get more and more confused the more I read this thread, LOL.

It's such a shame that you can't see those Lookout seats in person somewhere!!! It's really hard to determine how large of one you need just by dimensions....although, I did cut out a piece of paper with the dimensions on it to see how big of one I'd need but that was when I was thinking about the console seat, which is no longer an option since I've got 2 dogs now.

Brooke, have you come to a decision which one you are getting? I'm interested to see your two in one of them. I'm having the same problem b/c I want something that will fit in our car's backseat if we decide to drive our own car (we usually rent a bigger car for all MY stuff that I take and now all of the dog's stuff) and one that will be big enough for both to be comfortable for 10 hours.

I'm starting to like the laundry basket idea, LOL.

Someone said something about securing them: don't some laundry baskets have sort of slats in them where you could slide the seatbelt thru.

If they fit in the front why wouldn't they fit in the back? The back is much larger! LOL. Now I'm all confused.

I bet there is a doggie boutique somewhere near you that sells them. I found them in a tiny store where I also now get the puppies' food. I would try calling around because it was a big help to me to get to see them.

I ordered the medium pink. It should be here in a week or so. I will try to remember to get a picture of the girls in it and post it for you.

Oh ok, I get it now...thanks so much for explaning this to me

You did?? That's great!! Will you post and let me know how you like it when you receive it? I am still debating on the medium or the My Buddy I just can't decide on which one I want! I just know that I DO NOT want them to be crammed in car seat...I want them to have plenty of room to be comfortable, and really that is my only issue.

I don't think they would be crammed in the medium though and I DO like having the option of putting them in the front OR back. That way, when I am the only one in the car, they can ride up in the front with me, which I know they will love....and then when hubby is with us, we can move the car seat to the back.

Thanks Michele I will definiely be going with the medium size, or the My Buddy, just so they are more comfortable and have a little more room

The Snoozer website explains it all a little better also. :::: SNOOZER PET PRODUCTS :::: I've added the dimensions and details directly from the manufacturer. However it does help that I've seen these in person.

The car seats come in three different sizes:

1. Small/Regular - this one is pretty small.. the website says: 15”x 17”x 19”- one pet up to 18 lbs, but I'd say it would comfortably hold one under 7-8lbs.

2. Medium/Oversized - 22”x 17”x 19”- one pet up to 25 lbs. I've thought about getting this one for my two - they would both fit but I do not think they would be comfortable (they are 10lbs each). However it only comes with one harness attachment so you'd have to buy a coupler or something.

3. Large/My Buddy - the website doesn't list the dimensions anymore, but this supposed to hold two small dogs. It's apparently large, like everyone has said. I've heard it takes up half the backseat! Not to mention it's super expensive, lol.

I would suggest the Medium/Oversized one.. The large one won't fit in your front seat and your babies are TINY! Hope this helps.

Thank you SO MUCH for this info girl! I appreciate it so much! Ok, on the Medium/Oversized one....you said it only comes with one harness attachement, but can you buy an extra one, or does that not work??? LOL...sorry, I know I'm dingy!!

Oh, this is good to know! If two 10 lb babies would fit fine in it, then I KNOW my babies wouldn't have an issue because they are little 'ol things I have a Tahoe so it should fit fine in the front seat, or back

Well I should of read this first before I asked my question above - LOL Stupid me! Ok, that is great....so you CAN buy an extra attachement strap for the harnesses....YAY!!

Yes it can go in the back or front seat and they can look out the window since it's high up. I actually put all 3 of mine in it yesterday and they were side to side, close together but they all fit so it would be fine for a short ride. But it's better to have just 2 if they want to spread out on it and sleep for a long ride, so i think a medium is good for your little ones

Thank you SO MUCH Sarah!! Maybe I should just go with this one and be done with it...LOL. It sounds like it would be perfect, AND it's cheaper, plus I would have the option of it going in the front or back seat which I do really like.

Thanks again for all of your help girl!

Ok - gotcha! Thank you so much girl! Although, now (I THINK lol) I am sorta leaning towards the medium sized one
