I have been wondering about this after reading a few other travelling threads today!
I have two GSD. When I only had one and there was just me and the dog he travelled on the back seat in a harness. I travel up and down the country with work and dogs come with me on a daily basis. Most of my driving is motorway so high speed and long trips.
However, now there are two dogs, two adults and hopefully in the near future children to consider and I am thinking about putting them in the boot (no way would they sit still with people/children on the back seat without squishing them!)
I have an estate car currently so plenty space but I am paranoid about a rear end crash and them being squished after reading a story where this happened and 3 dogs were killed. Is there any way to make it safer for them? I can't afford a fitted car guard at the moment but they would be harnessed.
How do you transport dogs safely when there are already people in the car?
