First trip went ok, and they settled down for the night without trying to join us in the cabin bunk...all in all a successful night. Nice to meet everyone and their 4 legged travellers at Middle Wallop.

Only just seen this thread - well done you.
I've just popped out to the van to get a map - our husky Pushka heard the van door and was out in a shot - now has a very vexed look her face that we're not off somewhere!
We totally know what you mean about peoples attitudes to certain dogs - however we've also got used to the fact that she's usually a better judge of character than us.

I had a head on impact, in my car, once while travelling down a single track country lane and rounding a blind bend. Doing about 30mph (too fast I know). The dogs were behind a dog guard in the back. Safe I thought. Not so. One cannoned into the other and injured the poor chap's back!
I now use a harness attached to a seat belt.
The dog was fine in the end. The vet said he had spondylosis and that was why he screamed in pain.
Oh yes - I was ok (Air bag deployed). Had to comfort a rather shaken 17 year old who was not, I think, doing 30mph or under.

The picture of your dog brought such a grin to my face! ADORABLE!

We use a cage for our 3 - couldn't be without it.

Ours is a van that we bought specifically for transporting our two beardies for shows

.

It has a purpose made crate by Barjo across the back. The crate has a removable divider and separate doors out of the rear of the van plus a central door to the interior. It also has a small door in the back to allow access to the loo cassette. The crate is removable and slides out if necessary. It can also be folded for storage if required.

I seem to recall that Barjo make a big play on their website about harnesses sometimes acting as slingshots, but I suppose they would, wouldn't they. When we had three beardies for a short time we had to use a harness on the puppy and as we have two rear travel seats it clipped into one of the seat belt stalks.
