Vehicles reviewed for dog-friendly features
You’re looking for a car that will safely and conveniently carry you and your dog, but you dread the effort involved in sizing up all the available options. Happily, you have help: DogCars.com‘s mission is to assess cars, minivans, SUVs and any other vehicle “from a dog-lover’s point of view.” The reviewers focus on practical questions like how easy it is to open up the rear cargo space and fit and secure crates in it, and whether the vehicle’s HVAC system will reach the area where your dog is traveling.
Click on “Vehicle Reviews” to see the DogCars.com reports — the list isn’t exhaustive, but it’s a very useful resource. If nothing else, the reviews will give you a sense of what questions to ask and what measurements to make when you’re out kicking tires.
