FidoRido Dog Car Seat - Pet Booster Seat for Small to Large Dogs with Comfortable Cushions, Sherpa Cover, and Safety Straps, Easy to Install, Ideal for Travel, Black with Tan Bones - Large Harness

I needed a car solution for my dog. I used to have a special seatbelt for him but he would still squirm around the car and it was very distracting. A backseat hammock didn’t work either because he would still move around the car. He really wanted to see out of the windows because he is short and couldn’t see. FidoRido gave him the perfect boost he needed. It’s very secure with two tethers and I just clip them to his regular harness. He loves sitting in it and loves car rides now. This booster seat has calmed him down in the car and eased his anxiety. I can now drive peacefully with him without distraction. I can also roll my windows down without worrying about him jumping out. Only takes seconds to take out and put in so human passengers can ride. My dog is a beagle basset mix so he is short and long and it’s a great size for him. He’s around 28 pounds. Very happy with the quality and worth every penny. Keeps him safe and secure.

I love this dog carrier. It is solidly made and very comfy for my dog, a 12 pound havanese. It leashes the dog in from 2 sides keeping her from falling out to either side. They provide a harness with a ring on each side. However, I find I can use my dog’s regular harness which is better since it is more substantially made and I don’t have to swap harnesses around when I take her out of the car. The cover works well and easy to remove for washing. I recommend buying a second spare cover. My dog occasionally gets carsick and it’s nice to have a ready spare.

Driving around my high-strung little Italian Greyhound, who hates car rides and warbles, whines, barks and tries to jump to the front seat even when strapped in, has always been a torture and an excercise in patience. I've tried crating him, using a dog seat belt, playing calming doggie music -- all to no avail. The FidoRido performed better than I expected. It was well constructed and sturdy. It is easy to secure in the back seat of your car, is cushy and supportive, and boosts the dog up enough to see out the window. It comes with a harness that is very easy to put on and has 2 rings on each side. There are also 2 straps on each side of the FidoRido seat, which when hooked into the harness, keep your dog in the middle of the seat. The length of the straps can also be adjusted for dogs with longer legs or to allow more leeway. The only thing I would suggest is that if your car seat angle causes the FidoRido to angle back, that you place a rolled up towel underneath it in such a way that it makes the FidoRido level. The first time I tried FidoRido, there was a noticeable difference in my dog's behavior. He didn't whine or bark (although he let out some warbles), he didn't try to get off the thing, and he even lied down for part of the ride. I'm hoping that it gets better with each successive use. Perhaps we can actually take the foregone weekend car trips with doggie now.

I have two minpin and normally they ride in my pick up in their kennel's. However, I would like them to enjoy the view while being safe and not loose in the car. The FidoRido is perfect for that! There are two leashes connected to the car booster, so both of them can go on it. And they are constantly looking outside, so they are totally enjoying their rides. I give it stars because even though it is a great product. I am of the opinion that it is way overpriced considering the design and material.

I love this car seat. It's perfect for Dexter, our Boston Terrier. To begin with, the seat is secure in the car, because it's held in place with the vehicle's seat belt, similar to a child's car seat. The two straps on the seat attach to the dog's harness. This anchoring setup keeps the dog very safe, and the dog should be in the back seat to avoid injury from air bags. I use a locking carabiner through the loops on the straps and harness which has a weight load of 50 pounds. The seat allows Dexter to safely look out the window while riding in the car, one of our primary reasons for making this purchase. When we opened the shipping carton and unwrapped the seat, Dexter immediately hopped onto the seat and curled up to take a brief nap. The fact that the seat can be used as a dog bed and also a bath tub is great! This product is also proudly made in the U.S.A. I highly recommend this product.

Easy to install, and looks good. I’m not using the harness it came with, as i use a different harness when we’re out - but the straps attach to her harness on both sides, beautifully. She is a therapy dog in training, so starting her off early in a carseat was important to me. I would definitely recommend this carseat to others.

Let me count the ways! 1. You are spacious - huge! - and high enough to let my 15-lb poodle mix see out all the windows. 2. You can be securely attached to the seat with the lap and shoulder belts. 3. Custom-fitted harness included! Side straps on booster bed/seat securely attach to sides of harness, but can be left loose enough to allow doggy to turn sideways or lay down for a nap. 4. You look so good in my black leather car interior with your soft, black, furry cover and red harness (my choices - selection of colors available to match any car interior!) and plain, simple design - no kitschy, cheap-looking, pastel plaids, gingham, flowers, etc. 5. You give me peace of mind, because my dog can now ride safely and comfortably in the car, NOT in my lap 6. You cost a lot (ouch!) but my research did not turn up anything comparable in terms of security, comfort for my dog, and attractiveness. 7. Your customer service people are great!

I did not like the bulkiness of the seat. My Yorkie weighs 8 lbs. so half of the seat would have been big enough. It just takes up too much room in my vehicle. And the harnesses do not fit my baby very well at all.

that is the best seat for dogs for cars in the market, it is easy to put and remove, it is very well made, the height is perfect so your dog can look out of the window, and most importantly, keep your dog safe and comfortable, great for long and short trips, was delivered on time and straight home. So happy with it 🐾👣
