Console Lookout

[Believer]

Meeko's console seat doesn't have the storage drawer. But from what I've read and heard, that drawer isn't all its cracked up to be. Anyway, it has three straps on the bottom. One in the front, which goes underneath the console and two in the back to strap to the driver and passenger's sides. I got it at www.hunterk9.com. You can choose small, regular or SUV size. And you get to choose your fabric. Again, Meeko LOVES his. We were driving around today, even drove to Lincoln Road and South Beach and he rode in it the whole day.

I agree, it would be really terrible if she hated being in her new console bed. I didn't know that they came in different sizes is why I didn't get a larger one. So, I just purchased the large booster seats for the backseat. I must be totaly honest with you........I really don't think the console bed is the safest place for furbabies, but........when they are babies and need us for security, (we need to know they are safe also) mine were content and happy in their console bed. My Yorkie boys always had on harnesses, never collars hooked to the safety straps. Good luck........

I have just about every lookout seat available because of my large gang and I use everyone depending on the situtation. You might want to read the following thread as what is the safest place for your dog in an accident. I should have know better as I work for a car company and it does make sense that the safest spot is in the middle of the car. A console seat is safe as the airbags don't expand into that area but I find the easiest for me is the lookout in the middle of the backseat. I hope this helps.

we have the regular sized lookout carseat. romeo is about 5lbs and i think it's perfect. we bought it at a local specialty shop called jakes dog house. i only have 1 furbaby. if i get another furbaby a will get another lookout seat and put them side by side in the backseat. i saw them cheaper on dog.com and drfostersandsmith.com. ours has the drawer on the bottem. a great feature to store treats, clothes, exc. we also have the feeding tray that attaches to the side. we bought this at jakes dog house also for about $20. romeo doesn't really like the feeding tray. i have to slide the cups out for him to eat and drink when we park. although, it helps prevent spills!

wow. it makes sense that the center of the car is the safest. i think i will reconsider the console version. keep in mind, when we totaled our car the passenger airbag was huge. i think it may hit the console area depending on the make and model of vehical. we had a lexus es300 sedan. just a 4 door car. i will check with the manufactor of my new car about airbag size. oh.. also the airbag was so large it hit the rearview mirror and it flew off striking my fiance in the head and causing injury. i don't think romeo could have taken the impact from the rear view mirror flying off. our accident was a high speed impact. most accidents i am told are fender benders at intersections. thanks for your input. especially from the yorkie lover that works for the car company.
