Questions & Answers

5 Customer Questions

What’s the shortest length it can adjust to?

Answer by Chewy • Nov 19, 2021
The shortest length this belt can adjust to is 18.5 inches.

which harness would compatable

Answer by Chewy • Aug 31, 2025
For the best harness to use, we recommend choosing a sturdy and well-fitted harness that is specifically designed for car travel or safety. Look for harnesses that distribute force evenly across your dog's chest and have easy-to-use clasps that can securely connect to the seat belt. Although Mighty Paw doesn’t specify a singular “best” harness to use with their seat belt in the provided guidelines, harnesses that are strong and comfortable will ensure a safe and secure trip.

Is there enough length for a dog to lay down?

Answer by Chewy • Mar 25, 2025
This dog seat belt is designed to keep your pet safe in the car while allowing some movement. It attaches to the headrest and generally lets dogs sit, stand, or lie down, but the leash length (typically 20–30 inches) may not allow for full stretching in smaller vehicles. For more movement freedom, consider a more adjustable seat belt.

Can the buckle that attaches to the dog be replaced if it breaks?

Answer by Chewy • Feb 23, 2025
This seatbelt does not feature replaceable parts.

Best harness security in car

I love this harness belt! I bought my Frenchie a lookout dog car seat and the harness security belt clips that came with it were very flimsy and did not lock in

I love this harness belt! I bought my Frenchie a lookout dog car seat and the harness security belt clips that came with it were very flimsy and did not lock in place after adjusting. If I had a car accident, it would have easily pulled to extend all the way out and she’d end up getting seriously injured. I knew I was going to need to replace those with a more secure belt. I found this belt and read the reviews so I thought I’d give it a shot. The belt was very thick, strong and resilient. It easily hooked to the seat headrests and I could extend the length to the appropriate length for her that would allow her to move around without the worry of her going thru the windshield if there were an accident. The locks on the belt are heavy duty and have kept the length where I put it without easily loosing giving her free roam of the car. The belt also comes with. A heavy duty carabiner clip to hook to her harness. I'm really pleased with this harness belt and is so easy to connect to her harness and the design keeps her from getting all tangled up in the belt. I would highly recommend this brand and item.

Value and Great price! Peace of Mind...

We have had other brands that didn't last as long as Mighty Paw Headrest Dog Seatbelt. The plastic parts on the other brands would break on sudden stops. Mighty

We have had other brands that didn't last as long as Mighty Paw Headrest Dog Seatbelt. The plastic parts on the other brands would break on sudden stops. Mighty Paws brand has all metal parts on their seat belts and haven't failed yet. I highly recommend Mighty Paws brand any day of the week. We have 4 of the Mighty Paw Headrest Dog seatbelts, 2 for each vehicle that we own.

Great seat belt - great precaution!

I have one of these on each headrest I have in my car. I attach one to each dogs harness (NOT COLLAR). That way I'm adding an extra layer of security for my fur

I have one of these on each headrest I have in my car. I attach one to each dogs harness (NOT COLLAR). That way I'm adding an extra layer of security for my fur babies. I worry about traffic & crazy drivers. This gives me piece of mind knowing they won't be crushed by an airbag, crash through a window or even get too close to me when I'm driving. It gives just enough room to add security for my 2 fur BABIES, plus they still enjoy looking out the windows. I love the piece of mind that I'm doing everything I can to keep them safe.

Staying put

Ease of use. Holds her 75 lbs securely on rear seat. Her wanting to climb across console and into my lap while driving is a new behavior, so this is essential

Safety

This is easy to use with my dogs’ harnesses and doubles as a leash for my small one (when it's just a quick ride).

Not so safe?

I decided not to put my smaller dog in the front seat for her rides after all, so I didn't actually use this. I wanted her up front by me, but I just don't think

I decided not to put my smaller dog in the front seat for her rides after all, so I didn't actually use this. I wanted her up front by me, but I just don't think that's the safest way for her to travel in my car, so she will remain in her car seat in the back seat.

Good solution

There’s no good way to anchor a restraint using the seat belt anchors in my Tacoma pickup truck. This is a good solution, as it uses the headrest to keep the restraint

There’s no good way to anchor a restraint using the seat belt anchors in my Tacoma pickup truck. This is a good solution, as it uses the headrest to keep the restraint centered on the passenger seat.
