Dog-Friendly Honda and Other Cars.

Have you ever wanted a Dog-friendly car? Honda just unveiled their latest Element at the New York Auto Show.

This SUV comes with a dog bead in the trunk with a water bowl built right in. It is also fashioned with restraints to keep your dog safe just in case you get into an accident. This thing can come with a fold out ramp for smaller dogs, older dogs, or dogs that have been injured.

Honda has not yet decided on how much these extra add-ons will cost but it should not be over the top.

Other Dog-cars I found doing a little research.

According to DogCars.com, for a vehicle to earn high ratings, it must feature:

• Seats that fold flat or are easily removable.
• Plenty of usable cargo space relative to the size of the vehicle.
• Wide, square backs, with as little rear slope as possible, to make the most of the cargo area.
• Door and window locks, so a dog can’t accidentally unlock a door or roll down a window.
• All-wheel or four-wheel drive and high ground clearance is preferred, because dog sports people find themselves off-road a great deal.


Rated number 1 in 2008, by DogCars.com. The Dodge Grand Caravan.

4:Ford Flex

The best Green dog car, is the Toyota Highlander Hybrid.

Now all they need to make is a Dog-friendly motorcycle. HAHA

Tell me what you think about my train dogs for beginners posts, because the comment section is where we all can have some dialog. And eventually, there will be more information about training dogs in the comment section then anywhere else on this blog...... Hopefully.
