Canine crash restraint, LATCH/ISOFIX compatibility, seat-belt load paths, anchor strength and geometry.

About

I audit how restraint systems interact with real car anchors and seat geometry, then road-test installs to confirm stability and noise.

Core Beliefs

Safety is a system: dog, device, and vehicle must work together, measured and verified.

Background

I pulled hard on a harness in a dealership lot and watched two “universal” buckles pop free. Later, a sudden stop on wet pavement proved our anchored setup: zero slide, dog settled. Since then, I measure anchor depth, strap stretch, and belt path before recommending anything that claims restraint.

Perspective

I favor anchored, crash-tested containment over soft barriers or loose tethers.
