Car rides, loose, crate or doggie seatbelt?

  • How can u keep them down. I really could not keep him strapped in, he wiggled right out of it.

  • It's funny how they get that basenji "sardonic grin" right before they puke!

    I love it; not only is it amusing to look at, but it gives me time to get the bucket ready! LOL

    LuzMery, maybe you're not using the correct size harness? Or not tightening it properly.

  • could be. it also took me a long time to figure out the harness. I'll try again, this time with my hubbies assistance. We want him safe.

    This weekend my B was doing that sound right before they puke (gave him some rawhide bones) and I carried him to the bathroom and put his head in the toilet thanks to someone else's experience on this forum-sorry forgot who)and my daughter was laughing at me, but hey he threw up in the toilet and hopefully will in the future. I love how human they can be at times….really just like children!

    Thank you for your reply Helena. I have found some double crates on various websites and am waiting until we get the new car before purchasing.

    The only thing I have found that will hold Corin is a Kennel-Aire Commander crate, because it has 1 inch squares on all 6 sides. The new Kennel-Aires have larger sqaures on the bottom, and he has figured out how to slide the tray out and get out the bottom of the crate.

    The only reasons I would not crate little bs with big bs is (1) I don't want any fighting so you would have to play that one by ear (2) If the little one potties in the crate accidentally the big b has to suffer too. But I only have 1 so thats all I could think of

    I would recommend when you have the time, take some steel wool and strip off all the rust and then spray paint it to prevent more rust from forming.
