Pet Auto Safety

One way to help protect your dog in the car is to keep them in the back seat with a dog car barrier. A dog car barrier helps to keep your dog or dogs from distracting the driver. A dog in the car can be as much as, if not more than, a distraction as talking on the cell phone or trying to text while driving. A dog car barrier can also keep the dog from becoming a dangerous projectile to other passengers in the car in the event of a car accident. If something as simple as a tissue box can turn into a deadly projectile, imagine what a heavy dog can do. There is still a risk of your dog being ejected from a side or back window, but since most ejections are through the front of the car a dog car barrier may help. There is also still a risk of your dog escaping from a broken window during a car accident. But if a dog seat belt is not an option, a dog car barrier provides some protection and is better than having no protection at all.

If you have a medium to large sized dog and you are considering a dog car barrier for your vehicle, consider the T-Flex dog car barrier. The T-Flex dog car barrier has a unique split seat extension to bar the space between the seats. This is extra useful if your vehicle has a small or non-existent center console. The T-Flex dog car barrier is also adjustable enough that it fits most SUV’s and station wagons. The adjustability and the effectiveness of the T-Flex dog car barrier has made it one of our most popular choices.
