Leashes, Harnesses & Car Travel

Dog Leashes, Harnesses and Car Travel Gear

This collection covers equipment for walking dogs and for taking them along in vehicles or on outings. It includes leashes and harnesses for walks, car travel items for drives, and carrying options for smaller dogs.

Walking gear

The RoamLine is a retractable dog leash, and the RoveTac is a tactical dog harness. Points to compare include the dog's chest girth and weight, the number of adjustment straps, how the leash attaches to the harness, and how easy the handle is to hold.

Car travel

For vehicles, the PawGuard Pro is a dog car seat cover, and the RideTether is a dog seat belt that tethers a dog to the car's restraint system. Seat layout, vehicle type and whether the item fits back seats or cargo areas are useful details to check. A seat cover and a seat belt serve different purposes and are sometimes used together.

Carrying small dogs

The PawVoyage pet backpack and the PawVoyage Stroller, a dog stroller, are options for small dogs that are carried or wheeled on trips, in cities or on longer outings. Dog weight, product dimensions and folding or storage size matter most here.

What to compare

• Dog size, weight and chest measurements
• Adjustability and attachment points
• Compatibility with the vehicle seat
• Folded size and weight for carrying items
• Cleaning steps after muddy or wet use

Typical uses include neighborhood walks, errands, road trips and visits to parks or city streets.
