Yes. I never really thought much about dogs riding in the back of SUV’s until I started raising guide dog puppies and doing more research into it. It makes sense that this area is made to crumble for the safety of passengers and a good reason not to allow your pets or people to ride in that area of the car.

We used these same pet transport methods based on merely our common sense. So, first we taught the puppy ride in a car in the passenger footwell, on a towel/blanket with toys and a cool water bottle (yes we hadn´t ac in our car in that time). Next when the puppy grew we taught her to ride with harness on, and we placed the puppy in the passenger side back footwell. The harnesses dog seatbelt strap was locked to the car´s seatbelt lock. Next we changed your cars one after to one other to the models didn´t have so large back footwells, so your now dog place was in the backseat with harness on. Sometimes the dog rides on the front seat also (harness on & locked). Then I just switch the passenger airbag off. But I never ever would put my dog in the car´s trunk area/back. No matter the car´s size and SUV/wagon or not. Due to possible rear-end collision etc…

Thanks for the tips, they were very helpful.

Is the leash attached to a harness? Do they keep the leash short? If the leash is attached to her collar and it’s not kept short tell your parents to be careful because that could become a dangerous situation in an accident.

The basket also has a leash attached to it, so she can’t jump out of the basket.
