Title: Dog on back seat
Post by: smiles657 on July 15, 2026, 11:14:39 AM

Hi Guys, I Have just changed from a Mk2 to a Mk3 anyway what is recommended (you yourself use) for safe and kind restraint for a Cocker Spaniel travelling very short distances on the back seat.

Flip up one side of the Magic Seats and have him (or her) on the floor,(https://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/tiere/n026.gif) secured on the leg of the other seat!

You can buy car harnesses. These will allow the seatbelt to be slotted through a strong loop. It also means the dog can move around without strangling itself.

I'm a bit confused. Is there a reason that a mk 3 requires different cocker spaniel restraints to whatever you used in  your mk2 ? (If any  ;) )

I am not being entirely facetious.  I understand  the magic seats arrangement in the mk 4 differs from the  mk 3 so maybe the mk3 differs from the mk2  The rear head restraints are more intrusive.  This may, or may not, make them more cocker spaniel proof. 

I had a cocker spaniel many years ago.  She got very excited at first on every car journey until she settled down.   I think short journeys require as much safety restraint as long journeys, if not more.
