The safest car seats for dogs are crash-tested carriers or crates made specifically for car travel. Look for fully enclosed car seats that fasten securely to your vehicle's seat or seatbelt system or choose an open seat with a secure harness. While partially enclosed dog booster car seats can be safe and comfortable for car travel, they may not be as safe as fully enclosed car seats, especially in an accident. However, harness-style restraints in both fully and partially enclosed car seats can make them even safer during travel.
The best way to clean dog car seats is according to the manufacturer's instructions. Many dog car seats can be spot cleaned, or they may have removable covers that can be machine washed for easy care.
