GS as dog wagon?

[Jamesf1]

HI,

Anyone carry dogs in their GS? I was thinking of a rear seat cover with dog harnesses attached to seatbelts for 2 x smallish dogs. Or is it a no no from a damage\mess point of view. Advice\experience most welcome of dogs in a saloon car....

Not a GS but I carry a Labrador in the back of my RC, no problems.

I use a hammock style seat cover with a couple of blankets underneath to protect the leather.

forgot to mention, also need to carry a child in the middle seat so hammock isnt practical

How about one of these each side?

Slightly bigger version

Point being, there is no reason not to carry your dogs in the GS!

I never got a problem with our dog, but she is rather small.

Just wipe her paws and she would gladly seat on the rear. If she gets more dirty just put some extra blanket on the seat.

I have used one of these for many years with several medium sized (20-25kg) dogs. It was expensive - about £30 at the time - but it is excellent and can be half or full width. I think it is a German product although the description on amazon suggests much further East. "This cover has fast, easy mounting and braced side panels. The side panels to board the dog or the complete removal of the side panels when not needed can the car seat cover which is made up of polyester Allside. It is sufficient to cover wet wipe. Amazing lockable slots for seat belts. Parts of the ceiling allows legroom for a ride-person."

It unclips in seconds when you need the seat for humans.
