Product Information

This testing was a key part of our product development process. It confirmed for us that we had designed a structurally sound and secure canine restraint harness that performed as intended.

It is a vital thing to look out for if you are going on particularly long journeys or have a very fidgety dog, as you would also look out for when buying a child car seat.Travel harnesses with such a good safety profile are few and far between. The brilliant thing about the Easy Rider is that it offers that elusive combination of proven safety and an affordable price tag. Look for harnesses that have comfortable, wide straps. Although safety (and passing common safety standards) is the most important aspect of a car harness, you’ll also want to make sure it fits your dog comfortably and doesn’t cause discomfort. Wide straps help spread out the forces on your dog and provide a much more comfortable fit than narrow straps do. Sizing tends to come up small, with big jumps between the one size and the next one up. Does not appear to be crash tested. Another affordable car harness for dogs is by the SlowTon brand and they offer the widest selection of styles. It’s designed to be an easy on and off harness that can be used inside the car or as a regular harness that connects to a leash. In terms of the construction, it uses a combination of a soft canvas materials and a breathable mesh fabric.

A simple solution is a dog harness that attaches to the seat belt. Unfortunately, while most harnesses are great for preventing distractions, many don’t have the strength to protect your canine friend in an accident (the same goes forcar seats). Standard harnesses often have a basic “seat belt” loop, but in a high-speed collision this will almost certainly break. Even dog harnesses labelled as suitable for cars may not provide much protection. Owners often love having a canine co-pilot too, so you’ll see plenty of pooches riding down the street on any given day. It will keep them secured, and safe as it provides maximum protection against movement from sudden braking or swerving. After all, it is a small price to pay for equipment which could save your dog’s life in the event of an accident. Can I not just use their ordinary harness?Look for harnesses that are easy to adjust. A proper fit is imperative for safety, so you want to select a harness that provides several different places for adjustment. This will help ensure your dog fits well in the harness, no matter her size and shape. This is especially important for thin, lanky breeds, such as greyhounds and a few others. Another popular dog car harness that’s designed for maximum comfort is the Bergan system. It’s a durable but lightweight option that’s available in four different sizes and three styles. gives dogs freedom to stand up and lay down, making the harness more comfortable for the dog over long road trips Using a dog restraint or guard can be as important as putting on your seatbelt. It’ll help keep you and your four-legged friend safe in an accident but will also help prevent mishaps in the first place, by stopping man’s best friend from distracting the driver.

A car harness needs to be comfortable, durable and easy to adjust – just like a regular one. There are some extra considerations when choosing a harness for a car though, such as: This is a good quality, well-made product that compares favourably in price with similar safety restraints. Available in sizes small, medium, and large, and it has adjustable straps that help ensure a good fit. Based on the results of our dynamic tests, the Load Up™ Harnesses would not meet CPS’s current certification based on the excursion measurement limits (how far forward the dog travels in a dynamic test) defined in the testing protocol. The survey also revealed that nearly half of the British dog-owning, driving public (which account for over 2.5 million people), are unaware that they are breaking the law and not abiding by the highway code when not suitably restraining their dog whilst driving.The harness has been tested at an established University testing facility using the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard for child restraint systems. It has been tested for dogs up to 75 pounds. For maximum crash protection and to limit excursion, you should use the included carabiner to attach the harness to your car seat belt system. With five adjustments points, it’s easy to get a near-custom fit for any dog, regardless of size and proportions. The chest pad reduces stress on the trachea and sternum while dispersing kinetic energy across the chest of the dog. This is important during those rare, but dangerous impact crashes. The EzyDog is made from a combination of aluminum hardware and strong seatbelt meshing. This means it’sstrong enough to stop a dog from being catapulted during a collision, although it’s important to note that it was only tested for dogs weighing up to 75lbs. It also has a padded chest for both comfort and to provide your dog with extra protection.
