Reply #8: A dog that is harnessed

[Coyote_Bandit]

in the front passenger seat can still get at least partially into the driver's seat if you use a harnessing system that buckles into the car's seat belt restraint system. And a dog that is restrained with such a harness can still stand in the seat and look out the car window.

I've used such a restraint system for a decade. I restricts the dog's mobility and prevents them from getting or being thrown out of the vehicle - or into the dashboard or the seat in front of them. But because it permits the dog to sit, stand or lie it also permits the dog to have lateral movement.

Crates can poses the potential for eye injuries to some dogs - particularly those with smushed in faces and protruding eyes.

A harness system restrains and protects the dog and a responsible dog owner can usually train the dog to ride well.
