Dog friendly vehicle review



So I mentioned the other day that we have a new vehicle. Which as we now know, can fit two fairly good sized dog crates.  My human has yet to try and fit Frodo and I into one crate.  I'm thinking that may be a bit of a tight squeeze.  But we certainly DO fit together behind the FG's crate in the back of the vehicle.  But wouldn't you know it - just after we get our vehicle - THIS comes out.  Check out these wheels:

While many HUMANS would say that is a PERFECT vehicle for dogs, here is my CANINE review.  First off, I don't love baths at the best of times.  So the thought of having a bath available for every road trip and at ANY time or place is a bit concerning. Plus can you see yourself standing there and trying to dry a PON?  There goes the battery on the vehicle.  And that skinny ramp?  Let's see that Saint Bernard in the video go up that ramp.  And the treat thing - come ON.  How long before we pounce the heck out of it trying to get out the treats.  We could destroy that on the first road trip.  And do we REALLY need a video camera?  Big Brother in the VEHICLE now too?  And the harness.  Einstein can chew through bungee cords in NO time.  How long do you think THAT would last?  The no spill water bowl is a nice touch.  But picture that with the FG who likes to SWIM in water bowls... It appears the fabric in the vehicle is easy to clean - which is nice.  For humans.  We dogs don't care about that.  

While my canine review is not overwhelmingly positive, I guess the bottom line is that it IS NICE that manufacturers are starting to consider the canine demographic - after all we ARE taking over the world.  But for now, I think we'll stick with Ludwig.  

Happy trails!
