A loose dog in a moving car is a driver problem before it's a dog problem.
They move to the other window, they climb between the seats, they end up in the footwell at the exact moment you need to brake. Most of us have had the version where the dog puts a paw on the gearstick.
This is a padded air mesh harness with a tether that clips into the seat belt buckle. Your dog can sit, lie down and turn around, but they stay on their seat and they can't reach the front. The chest strap is adjustable, there is a D ring on the back for the leash so you can walk straight from the car without changing anything over, and the whole thing weighs about 200 grams.
One important instruction. The tether clips to the harness, on the back, never to the collar. A collar takes the entire force of a stop through the neck. This is the single most common mistake people make with any car restraint, and it's the reason harness and tether are sold together here rather than the tether on its own.
Sizing, and read this before you order. This comes in one size, for dogs between 25 and 40 kg. Neck 50 to 72 cm, chest 60 to 80 cm. Measure the chest at the widest point behind the front legs, and the neck where a collar would sit. If your dog is under 25 kg this will not fit, and no amount of tightening will fix that.
What this is, and what it isn't. This is a restraint for containment and for keeping the driver undistracted. It is not a crash tested safety system, and we are not going to tell you otherwise. If crash performance is what you are after, look for a harness certified by the Center for Pet Safety, which is a different category of product at a different price. What this does is stop your dog roaming the car, and that is worth doing on its own.
Where to fit it. Back seat, always. Never the front, because an airbag deploying into a dog does more harm than the dog was ever in danger from.
