How many times do you see people driving along with their dog sitting on the front seat next to the driver?  We all know that dogs our love being with us but is it fair on us or on our dogs to let them travel like this?

Wouldn’t it be safer for the driver and the dog if the dog was contained behind a dog guard in the rear of the vehicle?  Dog guards are really easy to fit as you don’t need to drill into the car or use screws and screwdriver or hammers etc.

Some dog guards sit on the headrests and others on the parcel shelf and all you do is pull them out to the width of your car and there you are !!  You can buy them in tubular or mesh form so whether you have a small dog or a larger type you can get a dog guard to suit your needs.

The dog guards on ideas-4-pets site are made by Saunders and are a quality item and are specially made to fit individual vehicles.  Just look for your make and model of car and check the year of production and then choose either a tubular or mesh dog guard.

The mesh dog guards are ideal if you have a small dog that can also double up as an escape artist or they are good if you dog is the aggressive type.  The tubular dog guards are fine for larger breeds of dog who won’t be able to squeeze themselves between the bars.

Having a dog guard makes good common sense.  Your dog is contained so that if you have pull up quick he isn’t going to be hurled against the wind screen or plummeted onto the floor of your car.  Equally, being contained will prevent him from trying to get on to your knee or distract you in other ways whilst driving.
