About This Item

Details

  • Keeps your pup out of the front seat and prevents them from jumping out when the car door is open, but still allows them freedom of movement—so you can focus on driving.
  • Installation of the dog leash zipline is easy: simply attach it between any 2 fixed points in your vehicle—like 2 seatbelts, 2 side ceiling handles, or in the cargo area of an SUV.
  • Comes with a zip line, an adjustable leash tether, and 2 carabiners—a large one that moves along the line itself and another one on the end of the leash.
  • Zipline dog seatbelt works best with a dog car harness, such as Kurgo’s Tru-fit Smart Harness (sold separately).
  • Built for life and protected against manufacturer defects when purchased new.

About Kurgo Gear

Kurgo believes that your dog deserves to go everywhere you go, safely and comfortably. Way back in the early 2000s, before dog travel gear was a thing, Kurgo set out to solve a problem: how to keep the family dog from jumping in the front seat of the car. After lots of brainstorming and prototypes, their Backseat Barrier was born. Twenty plus years later, they’re still finding new ways for you and your dog to go together in confidence.

Questions & Answers

13 Customer Questions


Can it be attached to a collar?

Answer by ChewyMar 12, 2018
This zipline comes with a sdtandard hook that can be attatched to a collar, however, it is recommended that you use a harness with your pet for better safety.

Can you connect two dog harnesses to it?

Answer by ChewyAug 02, 2019
For safety reasons, we do not recommend attaching two dogs to the same zip line, as they can become tangled, posing a danger for themselves and a distraction for the driver. With two dogs, we would recommend setting up two separate zip line systems.

How long is the tether line? Just trying to figure out if this will work with the kid in the other passenger seat.

Answer by ChewyJul 31, 2019
The tether in this zipline kit is 3 feet long.

can a Lab lay down while tethered? thank you

Answer by ChewyFeb 05, 2018
A dog has the ability to lay down while using this product.

I really liked how this seatbelt and zipline worked until someone ran a red light and I had to suddenly stop. My dog fell forward, the zipline tore the handle right out of the roof of my car and I am not able to afford the repair. Since it had shown it hooked up this way on the Chewy website, I thought it was OK to do it that way. Fair warning.

I got this for my dog and we love it. Recently, we started traveling with another friend and their dog and the zip line easily works for both big mitts hooked up to it so they can swap sides, sit and lay down.

DISAPPOINTING

Well I had high hopes for this product bit my 2 year old GSD came unclipped from it 3 times in one car ride. Not meant for dogs who move around a lot, how she unclipped herself 3 times during our drive not only upset me and almost caused me to get in an accident but back to a crate for our drives from now on. Very disappointing to say the least

I bought this to help keep my Great Pyrenees puppy contained in the back of my SUV. It did for 2 weeks until he chewed through the strap. I sent pictures of it and a copy of my receipt to the company but no reply. I purchased another just like it but the same thing happened. I’m done with this brand!

Our 12 week old Rottie puppy chewed through the zip line on our first 10 minute ride. Her puppy teeth were stronger than the zip line. Since then we just use the leash portion to keep her safe in the back of our SUV. That has worked very well. Wait until your pup is done teething to use.

This is purchase #2 so we have one in each car. Its easy to install/switch, but both cars aren't always here. After several years there are no signs of wear with a 90lb dog who runs back and forth between the windows for the whole car ride. I'd recommend this brand, and a great price on Chewy.

Wish I bought this a long time ago. It’s durability, different adjustments it’s what I needed for my King.

This product is so flexible and adjustable to allow as much movement with safety as you choose. We're using the zipline (attached across the back seat using the handles above our car's windows) and lead attached from our dog's harness (back clip). We've adjusted it so our husky can walk across the back seats, sit or lay down on the back seats, but cannot slide to the floor or towards the front in case of a sudden stop. It's also easy to attach the lead to the dog's harness and attach/remove from the zipline, to use as a short lead. Our dog is as happy with this safety car lead as we are!
