Car Pet Barrier (Dog)
I have a two dogs- a Labrador 85 pounds and a Chihuahua. I have a Mitsubishi Mirage car. I need a pet barrier that I can use with my car. I enter my Labrador to the back seat and he does not stays there - he jumps to the front seat and althought he is a tranquil dog- he only puts his paw on my leg ( thats dangerous when you are driving) so I need you guys to help me- I need a pet dog barrier but small enough for a Mitsubishi car. Tell me where I can buy it- For now, price is not a problem
Remember 85 pound intelligent dog ( he is trained but his owner not)
Answers:I have 2 labs and they can b trouble. They're AKC registered and every month i get a magazine. It has all kinds of stuff in there even dog fences. they have a website. Glad to help.
P.S. your on your own on the prices
Have you considered a seat beat harness for the big dog?
Pet smart sells a comfy one: http://www.petsmart.com/global/product_d.
As for the little one, I put my toy poodle in his travel bag and secure it with a seat beat. His travel bag also has a latch for his collar to ensure he doesn't go anywhere.
not too sure if the mirage has a back area like that of a jeep or explorer but i would put him back there---if it doesn't --they do sell mesh nets that can expand to any width for your vehicle. I see these at specialty stores for pets or online---try drs. foster and smith website. wwwdrsfosterandsmith.com
Buy a car harness for the lab and a little dog booster seat for the chihuahua.
It will keep them in place and it's the safest choice for everyone.
I have a little Chevy Cavalier and when I go back home to visit my daughter (3 hr drive) I have to take my Sheltie with. I just use a rather large baby gait and the vet advised me to give him 1 Benadryl for the ride which does help. This seems to work out pretty well and a Cavalier is a small car also.
