I want to put the back seat down but there is a big gap between the front seat and back, will this let me put the seat down and support the dog on it?

I have 2 big boxers and a ford flex, large vehicle w/large gap, I am very impressed and works very well. YAY

The front of my seat is flat except lumbar support. If you have side bolstering on your seat it will not work well as it will not sit flat against the seat.

No, your dog's back will be strapped almost completely to the back of the car seat. My dog tried to lay down/move around and there was still some give in the car seat belt; she got herself miserably tangled up.

That might depend on your dog and your car. My dog would not be able too- too far from window. Also this booster seat was sort of flimsy, not as secure looking as in the picture.

I would not think so. First you would have to reinforce bottom as it collapses. There are two straps to go around head rest, seatbelt goes through loops on the back. If it wasn't so much trouble I would send mine back. My 8 pound dog collapsed the bottom, and he hates those straps that go across where he is sitting.

It might but I would not recommend it. It would flop all over the place when you turned or came to a stop unless you could figure a way to secure it (otherwise could be dangerous) - it's really only meant to be strapped across you back with dog riding on your front.

Most likely not, it keeps the dog pretty well restrained, and the dog is low on the seat.

I have an SUV and the back seat has a split to put one side down and I can't do it with this cover. I think this would be better on a car. Now that have this cover on the back seat I have to put BOTH back seats down.

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.

It probably would, because it would make a bridge across the middle, where I assume there is a pathway between the seats??? However, not sure if that would put added stress on it or not. This is a very well made hammock in comparison to others that I have used, so it probably would hold up to the stress, but it might also depend on the size of your dog.

I think that might be pushing the limits of the hammock straps. My (50 pound) dog likes to ride suspended in the hammock between the front seats and edge of the back seats sometimes. I think that two dogs doing this might be too much weight. But, if they both just sit on the back seats, it would probably be fine. Hope this answers your question!

Yes it can go in the front, but if your dog is anything like mine, you'll probably want to combine this with a booster seat. My dog used to sit on my lap too, and I was always so paranoid she would get hurt, but she would whine and try to jump on my lap whenever I put her in the passenger seat, which wasn't safe either. So I got a harnesses and a booster seat and now she's content to sit in the passenger seat, as long as I still pet her. Definitely make sure you can turn the airbag off.

Hi Chloe - The center access panel is pretty much a stiff piece of cardboard (or whatever is enclosed in canvas). If the dog is large and pushy enough, it can probably find a way to get past anything blocking the front seat gap. If the dog is respectful of visual barriers and doesn't try to jump over it, this might do the trick.

The strap the goes around the console to hold it in place does not appear to be long enough to around a standard seat, you could possibly seat belt across the front to hold it in.....if you don't mind the seat belt strap being in front of the dog.

I do not know for sure. It could be a little loose. There are 3 ways to keep the cover in place. First, a strap with a clip on the top that goes around the head rest ( you should be able to use this), then a strap that goes around the entire seat back (if your back seat folds down in sections you will probably be able to use the back strap, or as you suggest it might fit in a seam, but that does not sound too secure), and finally there is a strap that would go around the bottom and under the seat. I do not know what you could attach that strap to. So if you only have 1 out of 3 ways to secure the cover working it could be loose. But if the dog is not moving around it might be okay. Good luck!

I'm not certain, I have a SUV & my dog rides in the back. But there have been times the back was full & she rode in the back seat. It was a tight fit. But the back doors of a sedan might be wider than my SUV. Try measuring the width available with the back door open & compare it to the width of the ramp. Hope it does work for you - I really like mine, easy to use & light weight. Good luck, sorry I couldn't give you a definite answer.

Hello there, This seat will probably be too bulky for your console. The inside of the seat has a little buckle on the bottom to attach a leash to if u are worried about your dog being skiddish. I have a boston terrier. She travels a lot with me long distances and feels very secure in it with her blanket on the front seat. Hope this helps!
