Rear seat dog cover

Researching covers for the rear bench seat so that our Heeler, a 70# gal can jump from the ground onto the floor board and then up onto the seat. Any recommendations? Here's a choice. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...M638ILK0&psc=1

I used WeatherTech pictured below. The last picture is for attachments for a ShopVac which you’ll need if your transporting a dog that sheds at all. I have a 80# German (Shedder) Shepard, the brush attachment does wonders compared to going to a pay car wash vacuum system. I also bought the most powerful ShopVac they had at Home Depot!

I can brush my girl everyday and still get a small dogs worth of hair off her. I have an attachment for my vacuum that bags her hair and I need to empty it halfway through the process!

I like the one from Orvis which also connects to the front seat headrests to form a hammock... provides a bit more protection for the dog and keeps its head from going between them.

This is the same one I have. Game changer. Can't believe I didn't have it in my last BMW. Also keeps my pup from trying to get in the front seat.[IMG][/IMG]

The Op specifically asked for one his dog could get on the floor then the seat so I showed the one I have. If you look at my first photo, I have a divider that goes between the two front seats that keeps my dog out of the front area but a determined dog that’s large enough can still climb over mine and definitely the hammock version (my girlfriends has the Hammock and her 70# American Staffordshire goes right over it if it wants).

I have fans for summer use that can plug into the USB-C port so the none Hammock version is easier to hook them up also but wouldn’t be impossible with either version.

To allow for loading per OP, just undo the fastek clip on the driver or passenger side then reclip for transport. Very quick and easy to do. If the dog does not stay put in the car then it should be secured via crate, wire rear divider, or seatbelt harness to keep everyone safe and prevent the possibility of an accident.

I got the covers from 4KNines - https://4knines.com/products/split-r...=9035351490621

I got the grey color which almost matches with the SilverStone Sensafin color. I got the split-rear covers and it has velcro opens for the ISOFIX for child seats. I also got it in regular size which is 54", which is tight but it does cover the whole rear seat.
