Pet Barrier for minivan

If you don't want or aren't in the position to take on the added expense of a new car, there are lots of companies that make products to make traveling with pets safer and easier. Keep in mind that none of these products have been tested in our labs. All can be found in pet stores or big box outlets, or online from suppliers like Drsfostersmith.com, Barkbuckleup.com, Frontgate.com, Ohmydogsupply.com, or Solvitproducts.com .
Pet barrier
Available in a variety of sizes for wagons, minivans, or SUVs, a barrier gives your pet some room to move, but keeps them safely contained behind the rear seat and off the upholstery.
Harness/restraint
According to Barkbuckleup.com, a 60-lb dog traveling at 35 mph can turn into a 2, 700 pound projectile in an accident. For the safety of your pet and your family, look for a harness that lets your pet sit or lie down, but will keep them restrained in an accident.
Cargo area mat or liner
Mats and liners help protect carpets and make cleanup easier. Look for one with a 2-3 inch lip around the edge to keep spills contained.
Mat/travel bed
If you have a pet bed at home, you can bring it along to help keep your pet comfortable and make them feel more secure. Or get one just for your car. Beds for the cargo area are one option, as are hammocks that fit over the rear seat area.
Water bowl
A resealable container is fine, but you can find ones that are collapsible, spillproof, or both. One cool model from BarkBuckleUp.com fits in a cupholder.
Loading ramp
Smaller and older dogs can more easily get in and out using a ramp, and it makes loading easier on your back, too. A variety of models and sizes are available. Telescoping or foldable models provide extra length without being too long to fit in your car.
