CANINE SEAT BELT FEATURES

Prevents Driver Distraction. According to the National Highway Traffic Administration, driver distraction contributes to 20 to 30 percent of all motor vehicle crashes, about 1.2 million per year. In a recent AAA study, pets and loose objects were rated as being the 3^rd worst driver distraction (1^st being radio, 2^nd being children). With driver distraction being one of the leading causes of accidents, it is crucial to keep your dog retrained while driving a vehicle. Canine seat belts can save lives.

Protect passengers from injury. In a 30 mph collision a 30 lb. dog can exert approximately 900 lbs. of force. This is enough force to cause severe injury, or possibly death to occupants in the vehicle. You can prevent the pet from becoming a dangerous projectile by simply buckling-up! A seat belt for your dog can prevent an injury to you.

Reduces Injury to Pet. Due to testing limitations available today in the market, it is difficult to predict what will happen to a pet in case of an accident. However, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) seat belts are the "most effective means of reducing fatalitites and and serious injuries when traffic crshes occur," "three-quarters of occupants who are ejected from pessenger cars are killed," and "inpatient hospital charges are on average $5,000 higher for non-belted occupants."

Can Be Used as a FRONT HARNESS SeparatelyThe seat belt/harness can actually be used as a very sharp looking front harness separately. You can then leave the seat belt attachment in the car ready for use when you need to put your dog back in the car.

It may be a Law in your State. Many U.S. States, Counties, and Cities are now requiring that animals be retrained in vehicles.

DISCLAIMER: It is very difficult to know exactly what happens to a dog in a vehicle crash since the testing tools available in the industry are very limited. In our opinion, a dog that is harnessed reduces that chance of the pet being injured by hitting other objects or occupants in the vehicle. It should also protect a dog from injuries associated with sudden stops and starts.
