Safety First!

Shopping for a Seat Belt
Luckily for us, nowadays, not only does every car come equipped with seat belts unlike your Grandpa’s stories of the old wide Lincoln with nary a buckle in sight, but there are a myriad of seat belt options for your canine companion as well. From harnesses to buckles to booster seats for little ones and even crates, there are many selections designed to keep a dog of any size safe and secure. Companies like Doctors Foster and Smith, Petedge, and offer quality dog seat belts.

Buckle Up!


  1. I think of my dogs as part of my own family. Axel and Wrex have been with me since I was 10, and as we grew older, we grew inseparable! Every time my wife and I go out for a recreational drive, we would have Axel and Wrex in tow. And like we do ourselves, we also buckle them in so that they can stay safe should we get in an accident. Though there have been studies that say that dog seatbelts aren’t as effective as they seem, it’s still better than nothing.

    A dog or pet seat belts is basically like a leash attached to your car's seat belt system. There are pet seat belts that attach to your car's actual seat belt, but the superior products clip directly into your car's seat-belt buckle. This means you can leave the seat belt at rest and your dog will have a very low chance of getting tangled up in it.
