Safety First With Cool Travel Gear.
We make sure the kids are strapped into their car seats; buckle ourselves up with seatbelts. Yet, how many of us let the dogs jump up into the car and settle wherever they please without a second thought? Maybe they sit in our lap while we take a quick jaunt to the post office. It seems that quite a few of us are guilty. Only 16 percent of dog owners have ever restrained their pooches while driving. Let’s make it a New Year’s Resolution to be more
safety savvy for the sake of our dogs. Let’s be more pro-active because we all know accidents happen. While interviewing our retail advertising partners for
this feature, we discovered how important pet travel safety is to them. They’ve researched, and as a result, carry a wide selection of safety and travel gear, beyond what we feature here. They stay up-to-date on the latest equipment, so be sure to visit them and ask what’s best for you and your dog’s safety needs.
Kurgo Swivel Tether Designed to restrain large dogs who never sit still. This is Kurgo’s strongest tether system, featuring a carabiner used by arborists. It has been tested to support 4,500 pounds of force. The swivel action prevents your dog from twisting or getting caught up in the tether.
Kurgo Auto Zip Line (above) Inspired by a dog run, the Auto Zip Line restrains your dog in the back seat for safe driving, while allowing back and forth, sit and stand movement. May be strung between any two fixed points in a vehicle, on a boat or at your campsite. Includes detachable leash.
Kurgo Impact Dog Car Harness (above). Crash-tested using the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard for child restraint systems, the Impact Harness is a totally new harness design, based on eight years of engineering dog car harnesses. Purpose-built for car safety as well as your dog’s comfort with four adjustment points for a perfect fit on all shapes and sizes. Broad padded chest plate for extra protection. Machine washable. Line dry. Kurgo products available at: BarkLife Market & More, Seminole & St. Pete; Dog Mania & Cats, Dade City; Fluffy Puppies, Clearwater; Pet Food Warehouse, St. Pete.
