Could I use this harness for a bar stool? My bar stool has a back rest but no arm rests and I'm worried about my 2 year old falling off the stool.

Yes. I will take so configuring but as long as the chair has a back it will work.

You can only attach it if the back has posts or narrow bars. Otherwise the harness won't be able to loop around properly.

I agree. There is a lot of slack in the harness. Also, your child would fit comfortably. If you go to the website for the product, I'm fairly confident that there is a video, so you could see it being actually used.

A stool should work. You might try that first to see if it helps. The main advantage of the SP is that it fits under the toilet when not in use. You can push it under and pull it out while sitting. It's also slanted slightly forward so it puts less pressure on the ankles than a flat stool would. I don't know about kids. I don't see how it would hurt, unless they are too small, and putting their feet up would cause their rear end to fall in, but I would probably check with the doctor first to figure out the cause of the problem.

This buckle really would not help. The harness on your dog is the genuine factor. You must have a harness that displaces the force of the accident and momentum and around the rib cage of the dog. You cannot attach this to a regular collar, gentle leader, or standard harness that loops around body and neck. If you are looking to buckle in your dog over crate or gated travel, there are leashes with a "traffic control" loop about 1 to 1 1/2 foot from the clasp you can just use your actual car seat belt through the loop.

I'm not sure if it would , if your seats look just like this then yes, you will not be able to use your arm rest , I couldn't use my in the back

It's too large to use on the armrest in my Toyota Highlander. For one thing, it's too wide for it, secondly it would set it up too high and should the pup jump out it would be at greater risk for injury. This particular seat is made to use in the seat only.

Chair is not designed for arm rests, because of the way it rotates. However their is an arm on the base on the tub inside. You might be able to get someone to modify the chaier for you, but dince its plastic and has the cutout i don't think any modification will e reliably safe. I would recommend you use a walker for ingress and egress along with the pivoting chair. That's what my wife did for a while until she got strong enough to do w/o.

Hi, I think that would be a great idea as long as the tether was long enough so the dog was comfortable. You could always hook two of them together to make it longer if needed. I'm glad you asked because this safety harness saved our little chihuahua (Bitsy's) life. I didn't think a car harness was necessary, but we were going on a lot of long trips and my daughter nagged me until I got one. Six months later we were hit by a cab at 65mph on a 3 lane interstate. Bitsy was hooked to my daughters seatbelt (front passenger), unfortunately the seatbelt did NOT lock and airbag did NOT deploy. My daughters head shattered our windshield and she and Bitsy were thrown around as the car spun around 5 times then hit the center concrete divider head on!! We all suffered severe whiplash and Bitsy injured her left leg but we are certain that if not tethered she would have shot out of the car on impact and been dead. I am so grateful she had her harness and if only Toyota's safety equipment had worked properly they both would have not been injured. I wish I could have thought to tether both of them to the anchor but who knew. I will hook Bitsy to it next time. Good luck!

I had to send mine back via Amazon. My poor girl continued to loose her balance and the harness was a terrible fit for her. (Both of them )I called the company and they were no help at all :-(

I think that maybe a child that big would need a more sturdy chair with more height to the back. My 15 month old grand-daughter hits her head on the back bar. This is a great inexpensive option but everyone in the family has tripped over the back legs because they stick out so far.

A 2 year old still needs to be in a harness. Just in case you are interested, we use the Graco Nautilus for our 2 and 5 year old kids. For the 2 year old you use it with the harness, and the 5 yr old uses it as a high back booster with seatbelt. Actually we didn't remove the harness system until our oldest turned 5 because he still fit correctly (according to the manual guidelines) and comfortably and could buckle the harness system by himself.

Is there anything on the back seats that this can be hooked up to? The hammock has straps that are adjustable that fit around the headrest. Without headrests I can't think of an alternative way to use the hammock. Also, be aware that the seat belt thing that comes with this that allows you to secure your dog with the seatbelt clasp is not ideal for a larger dog but is great to secure your dog temporarily while loading groceries, etc. Otherwise, this hammock has been awesome. My dog is super comfortable in it, it's really flexible so it can be used just as a cover and the zipper down the middle allows for half up half down which is great when driving my dog and a person in the back seat.

Because of the way the arm is designed I think you may have trouble attaching it to a bouncy seat. The arm goes straight up it is not adjustable so even if you did get it attached to seat I don't think the child would be able to see it.

Is it safe to use for tethering a dog to a seatbelt using the back ring? I don't believe this product was ever designed for that purpose. The straps are not that wide, so if the dog were to be restrained during an accident, I don't imagine that it would feel too good for the dog. My answer for that would have to be NO. I will say, that the intended purpose for use with dogs that pull has worked wonderfully for my 9 month old boxer dog. Of course, having an excellent trainer direct us didn't hurt either, but this harness is comfortable for dogs and works. I would definitely recommend this harness and proper positive reinforcement techniques together to correct pulling. Is it safe to use for tethering a dog to a seatbelt using the back ring?

For Veronica - You were right don't take it off. The stool goes up and down with the orange cap on. :-) Apparently, in spite of the instructions they didn't put a "safety cap" on at all. Thanks for the reply.

Wow what a interesting question, let me just say that after put this shoulder strap on there is another clipped strap that secures it futher that goes under the arm, plus you can adjust the strap with sliding clamps to prevent it in a standing position from moving, or swinging...but by leaning over to hug your child this may negate that. So after considering this for you, I'd have to say that I doubt that very few straps would be that secure. Hope this helps. Ps. I love this strap.

We use this with my son. He's able to sit up on his own with supervision. He still falls to the sides and will throw himself backwards if you don't watch him. I love this seat we use it all the time at restaurants. Hope this helps!
