Dog Seatbelts

Safe Travels – Car Harness

I absolutely love taking my Ruby on the road with me, but I must admit, I am nervous when she is in the car. My inner grandma takes over as I am oh-so-careful not to turn sharply or stop suddenly. I am always glaring at someone I feel is not taking my baby’s safety seriously enough.

The Auto Zip Line by Kurgo seems a good solution for car travel safety. With this harness system the dog still has the mobility to move around in the back seat and can comfortably lie down.

The safety belt works by having a nylon line attached between the two rear seatbelts or rear passenger side handles, creating a tether run. The dog wears a harness with a leash attached to it; this harness and leash can be used to get the dog easily in and out for walks. The leash freely slides along the tether line giving the dog mobility but still securing him in case of a sudden stop or change of direction. Brilliant! The harness can be used with a front or rear seat belt in a more traditional manner if necessary.

Big enough for big dogs, too.  The large fits necks 18-30 inches, chests 24-34 inches. Extra large gets us up to necks 24-35 inches, chests 28-44 inches.

I just checked the measurements, and this will fit my Great Dane.

Happy and safe travels.
