Keeping Your Dog Safe On The Road
Keeping Your Dog Safe On the Road
Car rides are the favorite of many dogs. There are some precautions you can take to make sure this activity
will be enjoyable for both of you for years to come.
If you have any type of car with a trunk open to the inside of the car or with some other vehicles, you can
have your dog ride in the back separated from you by a gate or a net. If you have a regular car, there are
special dog seat belts and other types of restraints available. You don't want your dog flying forward if you
must stop quickly. You also don't want him trying to climb into the front and distracting you.
Dog owners who drive a pickup truck should not let dogs ride free in the pickup bed. This can create a
dangerous situation for the dog and other drivers if your dog falls out or decides to jump out. Dogs that ride
without restraints in the pickup bed may go flying if you stop short and suddenly. Tying the dog in the bed is
not a good idea either as the dog may still jump or fall out and wind up being choked or dragged along the
road The best and safest solution is to have your dog ride in the cab of the truck with you. .
Never leave your dog in the car with the windows completely up—especially in summer. The interior of a
car can heat up quickly, reaching temperatures in excess of 120 degrees in a very short time. This could
cause heat exhaustion and even death in your dog. If you are going to have to leave the vehicle and can't
take your dog with you, it is best to leave him at home for this trip. It is better to have him disappointed today
than not around tomorrow.
