I love to take my pooch pretty much everywhere I go. I can think of countless times that my furry friend has distracted me while I’m chauffeuring her to our next destination. I know it’s not safe for either of us for her to be roaming around a moving vehicle, but I haven’t found anything that looks comfortable or gives her a better view than almost being able to see out the window. Last weekend I found the perfect product to make both of us safe and enables her to have a VIP view while we’re in the car. It’s called the Dog Booster Seat and I found it at Brookstone.
I knew there was a good chance that Bella might like it, but I had no idea how much. It’s cozy because it’s padded and the adjustable interior tether attaches to her harness and lets her relax because she doesn’t have to try to balance when we’re making turns or stopping at a light. The icing on the cake is that she’s got a bird’s eye view without climbing around or leaning out the window. It only took her a couple of times to get used to her new seat and I know that she feels safer, too. The Dog Booster Seat comfortable seats small dogs up to 30 pounds and retails for $59.95.

It’s definitely the latest craze…dog strollers. At first, I thought this was a pretty silly concept. Don’t dogs want to walk and need exercise?

Or, you could [...]
