We previously tried an open throne type seat for our 2 small dogs but they would not stay in it. Got this because it is for up to 60 pounds so we could use it for both our dogs. Fits snugly in the back seat with plenty of room for them both and they can still see out the window. Sturdy, easy to install and dogs are comfortable in it. Review: My boy feels safer - Helps keep dog and hair contained, great quality material and easy to install. My dog gets scared during travel at night, and will attempt to throw himself to the front seat, even when buckled-in on his harness. This had made traveling so much safer, he also really seems less anxious and calmer, even settling to sleep while it was raining at night on a road trip, which is he most scared from the water hitting the bottom of car in the dark. He fits great with room to stand, sit, lay and turn around. He is a 55lb heeler mix. It fit a little tight in my 2024 Honda Civic, but fit good with front chair forward about an inch. I can't believe I didnt get this sooner. ## Features - Safe Travel Containment: The PetSafe Happy Ride Collapsible Travel Crate installs securely into the backseat with seatbelt straps and a headrest loop to keep your pet safely contained during car rides - Foldable & Travel Friendly: This lightweight carrier with leather handles folds flat for space-saving easy storage, perfect for road trips and compact cars - Comfort & Convenience: Soft-sided dog crate with mesh windows, a waterproof fleece pad, dual side doors, and convenient storage pockets offers cozy seating and easy access - Global Mission, Local Care: With U.S. roots and worldwide reach, PetSafe delivers vet- and trainer-recommended solutions and exceptional customer support to create fields of joy for pets - 25 Years of Trust: Since 1998, PetSafe has created safe, innovative, and trusted products that bring joy, enhance pet lives, and support the lifelong bond between pets and their families ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09T1P2B7J | | ASIN | B09T1P2B7J | | Additional Features | Collapsible | | Best Sellers Rank | #29,224 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #77 in Basic Dog Crates | | Brand Name | PetSafe | | Closure Type | Zipper | | Color | Gray/Blue | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Car | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (603) | | Date First Available | March 5, 2022 | | Dog Breed Size | Large, Small | | Included Components | Collapsible Travel Crate, Quick start guide, Removable floor pad | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 27"L x 19"W x 28"H | | Item Type Name | PetSafe® Happy Ride® Collapsible Travel Crate | | Item Weight | 5.69 Kilograms | | Item model number | ZTV00-17289 | | Manufacturer | Radio Systems Corporation | | Manufacturer | Radio Systems Corporation | | Manufacturer Part Number | ZTV00-17289 | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Maximum Weight Recommendation | 60 Pounds | | Model Name | ZTV00-17289 | | Model Number | ZTV00-17289 | | Product Dimensions | 27 x 19 x 28 inches; 12.54 Pounds | | Product Style | Modern | | Recommended Uses For Product | Traveling | | Size | Large, Small | | Target Audience | Dog | | Target Species | Dog | | UPC | 729849172890 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Limited Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** PetSafe - **Color:** Gray/Blue - **Material:** Aluminum - **Product Dimensions:** 27"L x 19"W x 28"H - **Special Feature:** Collapsible ## Images ![PetSafe Happy Ride Collapsible Dog Car Crate, Foldable Travel Crate for Pets Up to 60 Lbs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81LvTZeUnwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy it *by M***O on March 12, 2026* Love this travel crate. We previously tried an open throne type seat for our 2 small dogs but they would not stay in it. Got this because it is for up to 60 pounds so we could use it for both our dogs.

My dog gets scared during travel at night, and will attempt to throw himself to the front seat, even when buckled-in on his harness. This had made traveling so much safer, he also really seems less anxious and calmer, even settling to sleep while it was raining at night on a road trip, which is he most scared from the water hitting the bottom of car in the dark. He fits great with room to stand, sit, lay and turn around. He is a 55lb heeler mix. It fit a little tight in my 2024 Honda Civic, but fit good with front chair forward about an inch. I can't believe I didnt get this sooner. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Escape-Proof Travel Solution *by K***B on August 29, 2023* My small dogs are true escape artists and adventurers. I've tried countless solutions to keep them safe during car rides, but nothing worked. Traditional booster seats failed to contain them, and one of my pups chewed through the lead. With my dogs ranging from 16 to 20 pounds, they were small enough to wriggle past most barriers I tried to use to separate the back seat from the front. To my amazement, one of them, a crafty Jack Russell mix, even figured out how to unbuckle the seatbelt restraint I had tried for both of them. In short, I have brat-dogs. I needed a brat-dog-proof solution to my problem. I was almost ready to give up traveling with them, but I stumbled upon this intriguing carrier. I thought, "Why not give it a shot? After all, Amazon has a good return policy." First and foremost, this crate is quite spacious. I drive a Corolla, and while I can fit it in the backseat, it does limit the front seat's ability to provide leg room when positioned behind it, causing the seat only to scoot back halfway. However, the snug fit does add an extra layer of security. If you're tall, I recommend you place it on the passenger side to avoid discomfort during the ride. On the flip side, it works exceptionally well in my father's truck. His 4-door Tundra has ample space in the backseat without compromising the comfort of those riding in the front. Just a word of caution - it won't fit in a front seat due to its size! Quality-wise, this crate is top-notch. It's not constructed from flimsy plastic but boasts a sturdy aluminum frame. As mentioned earlier, it's roomy enough to accommodate a larger dog, although it works perfectly for my smaller dogs when they get along. The crate features a robust zipper that opens from either side, allowing you to install it on your preferred side of the car. The mesh windows are a thoughtful addition; they're durable enough to withstand my dogs' curiosity and provide a clear view outside. Moreover, there are small hand openings on either side of the crate, so you can keep it securely closed or open it to scratch your pups or offer treats without risking a full-scale escape attempt. However, if you have a tiny dog, exercise caution. My 16-pound Chihuahua mix immediately tried to stick his head through the hole, thinking it was a way out when I first introduced him to the carrier. One of the standout features of this carrier is the safety and security it offers your furry friend on the road. The crate is securely fastened to the seat using the seatbelt, and its well-structured design provides additional protection, ensuring your dog's safety during the journey. In conclusion, this product is excellent, and I wholeheartedly recommend it. It's a game-changer for pet owners with spirited, stubborn companions like mine. ## Frequently Bought Together - PetSafe Portable Pet Crate for Car, Aluminum Frame Dog Crate, Folds Down for Storage, Secures with Headrest Strap and Seatbelt, Pet Travel (Gray/Blue) - Dog Travel Bag, Airline Approved Organizer Backpack with Multi-Function Pockets, 25L Accessories Set with 2 Food Storage Containers, 2 Foldable Bowls for Weekend --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/433375512-petsafe-happy-ride-collapsible-dog-car-crate-foldable-travel-crate](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/433375512-petsafe-happy-ride-collapsible-dog-car-crate-foldable-travel-crate) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
