FYI - I often take my dog for rides in my jkur with the back seat down. Two days ago on the way to kayak the river his back leg slipped into the hole between the back seat and the back area. He flipped out, started screaming/barking while looking at me for help. I couldn't do anything except touch him while I swerved all over the place. I pulled over as soon as I could and gently lifted his leg out of the hole.

No damage done, but it could've easy been a broken leg if he freaked out. That happened to a another dog of mine when is leg got caught around his cable in the yard.

So the lesson learned is I will now have rolled up towels in that space that forms when you put the back seats down so he can't get his leg caught in there again.

There are a number of things you can do to fill that hole that is better than towels... Personally, I went on CL and bought a rubber bedliner out of an F350. It was close to 1/2 in thick, I traced out a template with an old blanket, and I put it down when the seats are down, it is solid enough to not flex when my two 80+ pound dogs walk on it, and it also allows me to transport materials that are messy without worrying...

Something to consider.

I bought the dirty dog trench covers. Works great easy to store. I don't keep them attached to the back side of the seats but underneath the rear slush mat when I need them.

Got this little puppy for my puppy. Clips into seatbelt and I put him in a harness. He can get far enough to put his front paws on the rear fenders (JKU) and still keep his face in the wind

if you can read this, my Jeep is broken....

I was also lucky enough to order the flat bed option with my JKU, I have the measures of that thing somewhere if you want them ?

Default Dog Harness

I want to start out by saying I am not selling anything yet, I just want to gauge interest if there is a market for this. If I get a positive enough of a response I will contact the moderator to pay for ad or sponsor space.

have been looking for something to secure my dog in my JK to no avail so this is what I come up with. I recommend using it with a harness but you can attach it to a standard collar as well. The intent was to secure my dog so he could move a little forward but not enough to come all the way up front as well as a bit to the rear and side-to-side but not enough to jump out or get caught in the roll cage in case of a mishap. What is pictured snaps easily into the existing floor mount of my 2-door with the seat removed. If you have a JKU or any other type of Jeep or SUV, I will also offer a hardware kit to utilize the same removable harness with some fold-flat hardware that will added in the floor. Please let me know if you think there is a need for something like this and I will move forward with ad space and production.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

I use a harness that buckles into the seat belt. That way she can ride in the front or back. Has enough strap to let her move around on the seat and look out the window. The strap is adjustable so when buckled to the center belt in the back seat she can look out either window.

Warrior webbing over the back of the JKU. German Shepard and schnauzer love to roam the back cargo space and get plenty of air, but the holes in the weeping are not large enough for them to squeeze through. We are all much happier that way!!!
