 Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2013 8:32 pm Post subject: Suggestions for securing a dog during an accident? |
 |
|
Did a quick search, but couldn't find the information I'm looking for so...
My concern is how best to secure my dogs in the event of an accident. During my recent trip I had to make an emergency stop and one of my pups rolled off the bed and slammed onto the floor. He's perfectly fine and just shook it off like nothing happened, but it made me think about what would have happened to him if we were ever in a real accident instead of just a quick stop. I've seen the pet barrier that GW sells, but what I'm looking for is a barrier just in front of the bed. I'm wondering if someone has already worked this out or has some ideas about the best way to go about this project.
Also, I'm looking at no-spill dog water bowls for the pups too, so if you folks have any suggestions there I'd love to hear them. Thanks as always!
Kevin

This is the ultimate dog travel bowl. Have used one for years.

... Better to secure him BEFORE the accident.
