Dog Gear w/ Pics & Links

Plenty of us haul our hounds so here are some things I've done with my '07 that others may be able to use. Please post your own setups, gear, and mods so we can all benefit.

Rear seat protection -

YESYEES Waterproof Dog Car Seat Covers Pet Cover Nonslip Bench Available for Middle Belt and Armrest Fits Most Cars, Trucks SUVs(Black)

Amazon link to show the product but the one I bought shows as no longer available. There are similar ones available. Things I like about this one are:
- Anchors (straps around headrests and corners of rear seat + rod that goes between the seat top & bottom)
- Zipper openings for seat belts if needed.
- Heavy duty - stands up to nails that need clipping
- Easy to care for - remove, brush off, wash, hang to dry, reinstall

$24 QIFUN 12V Car Fan, Portable Car Fan Cool Gadgets for Rear Seat Passenger, 4'' Headrest 360° Rotatable Backseat Car Cooling with Stepless Speed Regulation for Vehicles, SUV, RV, Boat

Adjustable seat-back fan - this attaches easily to the headrest posts and features a rotary switch that works like the dash dimmer in that you dial up the fan speed you want. It's especially useful if you have two dogs b/c the fans can be independently aimed. I installed a 12V plug on the back of my console but you can plug it in wherever.

$18 Dog Seat Belt 3-in-1 Car Harness for Dogs Adjustable Safety Seatbelt for Car Durable Nylon Reflective Bungee Fabric Tether with Clip Hook Latch & Buckle, Swivel Zinc Alloy Carabiner (Black)

"Seat belts" that attach to their harness with a carabiner that has the barrel thing to keep it from coming undone. Other end either clips to the baby seat anchors or snaps into the female seat belt buckle. We use the anchors b/c the dogs don't get tangled as easily with the strap up higher.

$14 EcoNour Car Window Screens for Camping (Pack of 2) | 100% Protection from Bugs, UV and Mosquito Net | Breathable Mesh Baby Window Covers for Privacy Blackout (Medium 32"x16") | Car Window Accessories

Window screens help keep the pups out of direct sunlight. I only use one b/c the other dog likes to look out the window. I originally bought them for car camping but they work well for this too.

 

Best thing I got was Canvasback door covers. They drool when they look out the windows and the saliva can stain the softex. One day I'll get the rear cover that goes over the sides too.

I also use the rear seat protector/ hammock thing, but lay it flat since we have the seats folded down.
