WHY YOU NEED A CAR HARNESS FOR YOUR DOG
Dog Car Harnesses Minimize Distraction for the Driver
Did you know that AAA notes that unrestrained pets cause more than 30,000 accidents annually? Scared dogs can try to get under their owners legs for safety making it hard to reach the gas and brake pedals. What about those sudden stops; when the driver reaches out to brace the dog, it’s a serious distraction to his focus on operating the car. Excited dogs can bound from window to window. Sounds like great fun for the dog, but it’s a dangerous distraction for the driver!
Dog Car Harnesses keep Dogs Safer
Each year thousands of animals are injured, die or become needlessly lost in car accidents. It’s the law! You must buckle up! (In some states, it’s also the law to buckle up your dog!) But, what about your dog? Isn’t he equally vulnerable? Unsecured dogs become projectiles, and go flying through windows. Not only car dogs be killed or injured in a car accident, but the poor terrified animals can easily bolt from the car at the first opportunity and rush into oncoming traffic.
Even if there’s not an accident, with some dogs the harness can keep the dog from unexpectedly bolting from simply opening the card door to let him out.
Dog Car Harnesses keep Human Passengers Safer
Sadly unsecured dogs can become projectiles in an accident. With enough velocity, the force of a dog hitting a person’s head can kill them.
