With a car dog guard or dog barrier, you can make the transportation of your pets considerably safer. At Winparts you will find a wide range of universal dog guards, but you can also find some dog nets. But why is the use of such a guard so important? What types are there and how should they be mounted? Below you can read all the information you need.
Why a dog guard car?
The use of a car dog barrier is a must if you want to safely transport your four-legged friend. A dog guard serves as a separation between the boot and the rear seats. A safe environment for your pet is therefore created. With a dog barrier, your dog cannot provide a distraction while driving. You also prevent your pet from being hurled through the car in an emergency stop or car accident. So, the chance that your pet will be injured in while driving is considerably smaller when you use a dog guard in your car. In addition, the use of a car dog guard is in some countries even mandatory.
Types of dog guards for car
Different types of dog barriers are available. With us, however, you will only find universal dog guards. These universal guards are suitable for almost all brands and types of cars. Of course, you will need to take a look at the dimensions of the product and the boot of your car. A universal dog guard is in most cases adjustable in height and width. So, you can easily adjust the rack to fit in your car.
At Winparts you will find two types of dog car racks; ones with mesh and ones with tubes. The advantage of a mesh dog guard or luggage net is, that small objects are less likely to fly through your car when you brake. However, a dog barrier with tubes is often a bit more robust than a mesh one. In addition, a rack with tubes often offers better visibility for the rear window. However, it is up to you which fits best with your wishes. Dog guards can also be used as luggage racks or safety racks. In this case, the barrier serves as a protection against flying luggage or objects in a sharp turn, emergency stop or accident.
Assembling car dog guard
The assembly of a dog rack or dog net is very easy. You do not need any more tools and it often takes just a few minutes. Most dog guards can easily be mounted on the headrest of the car seat. There are also racks that can be clamped with extendable tubes between the roof and the bottom of the trunk. These racks often have suction cups at the ends. This will prevent damage to the inside of your car. Dog nets can often be secured with loops or hooks.
