What Is the Best Dog Harness for Car Travel?

The Nobby Seatbelt with Harness is an excellent choice. This harness comes with a safety tether that connects to the car’s seat belt system. The seatbelt is easy to use and adjustable.

Can I Use a Dog Seat Belt with My Own Harness?

If you already own a well-fitting harness with a sturdy chest plate, you might only need the car seat belt tether. Options like the KONG Seat Belt Tether or Kurgo Direct to Seat Belt Tether are adjustable, making them suitable for dogs of different sizes and breeds. Simply clip one end into the car’s seat belt receiver and attach the carabiner hook to your dog’s harness.

Is It Safe to Use a Dog Seat Belt with a Collar?

No – never use a car seat belt with a dog collar. Always use a car seat belt in combination with a harness. Using a seat belt with just a collar can be dangerous and is strongly discouraged.

Is a Dog Seat Belt Required by Law?

In the UK, using a seat belt or dog restraint is highly recommended under the Highway Code (rule 57), though not strictly enforced. However, in countries like Germany and Spain, a dog seat belt is mandatory. Planning a road trip abroad? Make sure your safety gear complies with local regulations. And before heading off, double-check that the tether fits your car’s seat belt system.
