Dog restraints

How does everyone restrain the dog in the Thor axis?
Something easy to clip into.

They won't go any further then the windshield.




OK jokes aside, our dog stays in her bed between the two front seats. Haven't had a problem.


Restraints I have seen are for forward facing seats and have a lot of slack in them. Unless you want to travel with the dinning table some where else I don't believe a restraint would be any safer then no restrain at all

One of our dogs rides next to Mimi, with a seat belt. The other usually lies on the floor between the seats

Ours sleep on the sofa or at the doggie window, no restraints.

We keep ours in a dog bed that has restraints in it that hook to her body harness. The bed is secured with a seat belt.

Our two little guys have two identical beds that are secured to the sofa by the seatbelt, and there are two short straps that attach to their harnesses. They ride very well...until an 18 wheeler or motorcycle pulls up next to us.

This little guy is Guinness, and his tan brother (not pictured) is Nunzio.

I have one of these in both car and RV. Seatbelt holds the booster in place and two leads clip in harness. I’ve done a hard brake in car before, and it’s prevented them from going flying. Bonus because it sits high up and lets them see

I am a bad dog owner I guess. We let ours move around the ACE at his desire. For the most part he either sits on the booth seat looking out the front window or laying looking out the dog window. We started by attaching a leash to the back of the table support. He found that did not work well for him and during a trip chewed through it. I guess it depends on the size of dog folks have.
