Whenever I'm driving and Bandit's in the backseat I feel nervous that he's not as safe as he could be since he's not restrained in any way - one hard brake and he could go flying. I found a relatively inexpensive
seatbelt system for dogs at Amazon.com, and I ordered one for my car and one for K's car. When K got home from work today he installed both. It was very easy to do!
It took several adjustments before K got the harness fit just right. Bandit was very cooperative!
Once the harness was fitted correctly to Bandit and K attached the other main piece to the human belt system, the two-piece-system installation was complete

O my! bandit looks so gorgeous in those pics! What a handsome guy!
I just hold Ace on my lap for now, there is no way he would sit still right now for a harness....lol
luckily we don't take many car rides lol
I would love to get something like that for him though once he gets bigger! Great Idea!
Safety First! =)
We have those on "our list" to get as soon as we can afford them. We'll have to buy 3.
The pictures of Bandit are really nice. He is a handsome young man!

That's great! Car seatbelts for dogs are awesome! What a lucky boy, now you can all feel safe with him in the car :D
Hey Bandit, I have one of those also.
I'm not all that crazy about it, but oh well. Mom seems pleased with it.
You do look mighty handsome in it I must say!
Do you still want us to send snow your way?? We got plenty =)
Now he will be a safe little guy...
I have heard some awful things about these rawhide chews over the years. Mattie has a thing about not chewing before swallowing...she has enough things wrong without adding anything else.
Happy driving, Mary
That's a great idea. I generally put Indy in his crate, but I'm sure he'd enjoy a much better view this way!
After all, we don't want our furry kids to end up as hood ornaments!
Hey! I wanted to let you know that I was reading through your blog (your old posts) from when bandit was a baby like Ace is now and it is amazing how similar they seem!!
Ace is doing the crazy barking thing now and I am going crazy trying to calm him! I tried the can/penny shaker today & it worked!!! Alleluhiah! haha I have been sooo worried about puppy class on friday because he always wants to bark at other dogs (to play) and I couldn't beleive how bandit did that too!!
I am hoping to work on the barking hard core until puppy class and hopefully he will not bark himself hoarse!
I also saw how you had to carry Bandit to his crate because he doesn't like to go in, and I always have to pick Ace up and put him in! We were laughing last week about how I won't want to be carrying him around at 30 pounds!
Just wanted to let you know and I am so grateful to all of your older posts! It has helped me a lot in understanding Ace's behavior!!
I'm glad to hear it! The shaker of coins definitely helped a lot. Now if I could find out something for jumping. That's been our biggest struggle, getting him to curb his jumping. And he jumps incredibly high!
