Blair New York City, NY 1/12/2010 3:20:39 PM Overall sage guidance, but unfortunately, most dog walkers discover a danger, only sadly, when victimized and so I would like to inform you visitors of StreetZaps.com, a timely and useful tool intended to reduce the year-round risk of injury and fatality from contact voltage. And so you are aware, I confer with Con Edison's Stray Voltage and Public Affairs Units and contribute to Wet Nose Guide and New York Dog Chat. It is my firm wish that Dog Channel will disseminate this vital public service as quickly and as widely as possible to preclude more tragedies. Many thanks.
M.A. Seattle, WA 10/3/2009 12:49:42 AM I also recommend buying a window shade for your car, like the ones parents use to protect babies from too much sun on their car seats -- and for the same reason. Your dog may be crated or clipped into a position where she's getting too much sun for comfort. (http://www.dogjaunt.com )
Amanda Mesa, AZ 4/6/2009 2:37:54 AM I don't recommend placing a dog in a crate OR having a grid/barrier for car travel; no matter how well you secure it, accidents can happen - some crates may crush dogs in the event of an accident, and dogs will be thrown forward against a grid during a collision (think of the momentum you learned about in school.)! I prefer dog seat-belts. They're easy to use, operate under the same idea as car seat-belts, and - a big plus - if a mechanism gets jammed and you can't unhook them, you can cut through them with a knife, which means they don't have the risk of burning to death in a car fire.
