Let's See Your Dogs!!

Here is my buddy! I got her at the shelter, she loves camping, canoeing, and sleeping in the back of the truck!

Sorry to see your pup's nub Brady!

Got Jax out today for a training hunt at our local game farm in WI. Had three birds out and a blast watching Jax quarter on scent and flush. Overall didnt need much vocal restraint and was happy to see the instinct kick in for him. Was warm out so took it easy but it was perfect to get him excited about live birds in mouth before this fall rolls around.

Hey, I was wondering what you guys use to secure your dogs in the bed of the truck? I made the mistake of letting my dog in the back of the cab and spent 1hr vacuuming his hair off of the seats and the back of the front seats. I feel its safer for him back there, but when I go camping, I put him in the bed so he can enjoy fresh air once we get off any main roads, but I am afraid that if he sees a rabbit or something he might jump out of the bed.

 

My dog is old she won't go anywhere but a harness and a double leash secures at opposite sides of the bed will make sure your pup won't jump out.

 

Get seat covers!!! Dogs don't belong in the bed!!!!

 

Oh boy...........

 

Dont mean to be rude but that's your opinion. My dog is happiest in the bed. You're saying my dog shouldn't be happy? He gets tethered and now with the topper there's no way for him to get out. I get your comment, but please dont lump all dog owners into the same boat of not caring for their best friends well being.

 

Colorado requires a kennel or cage secured to the bed now to keep them safe in the bed. Might be something to consider. It's up to you. Me personally my GSD's ride in the back seat. I don't mind the hair.

My lab of 10 years, passed away last year. He was the Taco's true owner. I just chauffeured.

In dad's '83 Hi-lux...

My new lab pup, in the pool, about to become the Taco's new owner with a desert road trip coming up...

 

so just out of curiosity and at risk of regretting asking this but.....why don't dogs belong in the bed? He gets to ride in the bed when Im on dirt roads which means I am not going very fast. Its not like Im driving down the highway with him in the bed.

oh and your seat cover idea......im not putting seat covers on my front seats as they have airbags in them. That seems sort of counter productive to cover airbags?

I put my dog up front on longer road trips or going faster on highways, but putting around locally in beautiful weather the dude rides in back. He gets to sniff and check out the scenery, and I don't have to 'f' with towels, sheets and hair EVERYWHERE.

I'm not trying to be rude, but Colorado is also the state that the capital city banned pit bulls and the state passed a law against high capacity magazines for toys such as guns. They also passed a law to make marijuana use legal. I'm not putting much stock in any law from that state.

I didn't mean for this thread to get off topic, I just had a question. sorry.
