Dogs & Cats in vehicles (1 Viewer)

Driving With Your Pet Is More Dangerous Than You Think
Here's how to keep them safe.

No responsible pet owner would ever think of putting their dog in harm's way — but folks who travel with their furry family members by car might be doing so and not even know it.

A new crash-test study from the Center for Pet Safety (CPS) analyzed how well several popular pet carriers, crates, pilot seats and harnesses kept dogs and cats safe during vehicle collisions — and the results were, well, alarming. As it turns out, many of the products that claim to secure our precious companions in the event of a crash actually offered little in the way of protection.

My mutt sleeps in her bed for the whole journey-in the MH-her bed is right behind my passenger seat, she can't 'fly' anywhere!

My two are in their harnesses clamped around the very secure table leg.

Bit like when you saw a dog or cat on a Chinese junk in Hong Kong, you knew they were there for emergency Rations in time of crisis.

When in the van our 2 yorkies and the cat travel in two cages that are seat belted in behind the passenger seat .It does give some piece of mind just in case.
