How to Restrain Your Dog in a Car


A lot of states have a mandatory requirement that all dogs traveling with you need to be restrained inside a car or any vehicle (sometimes at the back of the vehicle). But whether or not your own state offers such a regulation, you need to seriously consider restraining your pet in order to keep him and everyone else inside the car a lot safer while you're on the road. Aside from being injured, your pet can become a source of danger to the other passengers (humans and animals) inside the car. Loose objects inside the car (like a dog that is not properly restrained) can turn into a deadly projectile during a collision or when the driver suddenly stomps on the brake. The following are equally important reasons why you need to restrain your pet (or pets) whenever you're traveling in a vehicle:
  • Restraining limits your beloved dog's movement. He won't consider jumping out of the window or there's no risk of him falling outside the car when he's properly restrained.
  • An unrestrained dog can make unnecessary moves and activities inside the car and potentially distract the one driving.
If you have any concerns about your pet’s health and/or behavior, don’t hesitate to call your animal hospital Glen Ellyn, IL.
