it’s ok for a while
By Dog1 on Dec 4, 2020
I liked this seat belt fine, bought two of them, one for each car, but unfortunately, they are easily chewed so they are both breaking in the same spot. I will not buy this kind of restraint again. Too bad, because it was easy to put on. If your dog is not a chewer, I recommend it.

Good Product
By hmmm on Nov 18, 2020
This works well for us and is easy to keep in the car and switch around to other cars. I wish it was a bit longer as we have extended it as far as it can go and he can’t move around to all 3 seats in the back.

Best purchase in a LONG time!
By Lynne on Nov 4, 2020
This harness saved our 3 month Labradoodle from what could have been a horrible situation. An animal ran in front of my car... I slammed on the breaks, and this harness did it's job; keeping her from flying off the seat and being harmed. This harness is also very durable! As a puppy, she loves to chew, but has not done any damage to this harness at all. This is Well Worth the purchase!

dog cracked the code in 30 seconds
By Emma on Oct 24, 2020
My husky clicked the seatbelt to unbuckle herself within 30 seconds. Thinking it was a fluke, I reattached it. She immediately pressed the release AGAIN. If my dumb dog can figure it out, I'm not sure how well it can work.

Love this tether
By Mare on Oct 4, 2020
I purchased this tether along with the Kurgo harness. I drive a 2018 Toyota 4 Runner and the tether fits very tight into the seat belt buckle. Now my 62lbs GSD/Lab Service Dog is safely secured. I would recommend purchasing the Kurgo harness along with the tether because the buckles on the harness are metal and not plastic which can easily break in a accident.

Kurgo Seat Belt Tether
By Denise on Sep 19, 2020
This tether worked great in a newer car but I have a 1987 and it didn't work in the seat belt in that car. The actual harness comes with a strap that can be ran through the seat belt if I hook it so now I have something that can be used in either vehicle.

Tether for my growing German Shepherd dog
By Lisa on Aug 29, 2020
Tether for my dog works real well. I had a crate in the car but my growing puppy was too big for the crate and I still needed her to be protected. I like how it just buckles into the seatbelt buckle but it has to connect to the back of a harness, which I had one luckily.

Can't use it
By SamsonsMom on Apr 24, 2020
I bought this to keep my Service Dog safer in the car since he is always with me in the car. He is a Great Pyrenees mix at about 80lbs. Unfortunately this strap does not have enough length for him to sit/lay down in a comfortable position at all. It also twists awkwardly on the harness since it doesn't have a swivel at the clip.
