Default Dog net?

Does anyone on here use a dog net to stop there dogs from going from the back to the front seat. Even with my middle seat in the upright position one of dogs almost every time I get out of the truck squeezes through into the front seat. They aren't allowed in the front and its more cleaning I have to do plus in my opinion safer in the back for them. However one of them thinks differently. If anyone has a net or something like that I would love to see a picture. I searched eBay and found some from 20-200.00.

Why not actually protect your pet with a seat belt / tether? e.g.

Who makes that one? Does it attach to where the child seat would? I had considered those but almost all of them failed the crash test and the one that didn't took like 10 minutes a dog to secure.

I hear ya. Luckily I was able to break my dog by punishing bad behavior (jumping up front) and rewarding good behavior (staying in the back while I am in the store)

Default Dog net?

You mean you don't do the arm across their body like some of us older guy's, parents did, to stop us from falling down under the dash....Thanks for the two broken fingers and the scar on my forehead, dad! From that oh so forgiving, metal dashboard on the old Galaxy 500.

What about the type of cargo net that you use on motorcycle. The one that's like 16 inches square with hooks on all sides. They stretch pretty far, maybe headrest to headrest and hook it to whatever is under the middle arm rest. Just a quick thought.

The dogs are loose right now...... Can't be worse than that. Still better than what you got going now.

I had this custom made for the back. It serves two purposes. It helps keep it clean as well as restricts the dog from getting in the from.

Don't know the maker, it was intended as an example. SEVERAL were found via ...
Google [ pet seatbelt ]
*They're a harness with a short lead that inserts into the normal seat belt connector.

Mine only does it if I am not watching him because he knows he isn't supposed to do it lol. The other one doesn't do it.
