   Vera (my 5.5 pound Japanese Chin) loves this! Her car rides used to be spent confined to a traditional pet carrier, and now her enthusiasm to check out the world as it passes by is unmeasured. Goes well with the car's tan interior, and is really very simple to install/uninstall. There is also plenty of room for her to comfortably turn around or even lie down One word of caution: you probably should NOT put this in the back seat of your vehicle UNLESS you have a passenger who could help out in case of a poorly-timed, enthusiastic leap from the basket! There is a harness clip to keep the dog safe in case of sudden turns or stops, but if your dog jumps out, he/she will dangle (or worse) whick would be very dangerous while you are driving! Vera tried to jump out within the first five minutes, but luckily it was in the driveway. It only took once for her to learn her lesson, but I was too worried for the rest of our drive to really be able to focus on the road instead of her in the backseat: dangerous! Keep the pet seat installed up front with you, if you are in the car alone.

   I've had this booster seat for my 3lb chihuahua for several weeks now, and we both, (my dog and myself) really enjoy it. Before, I had to drive with Cosmo in my lap raised up on his hind feet to see out of the window. This felt dangerous. The seat allows Cosmo to see in all directions and the strap keeps him safely inside the seat so he can't jump out the window or go flying if I brake suddenly. One suggestion though, use a harness rather than a collar to hook you dog in so they don't jump over the side and "hang". At first Cosmo would get wound up in the safety strap but has since learned how to move about without getting tangled. I recommend this seat to anyone with a small, curious dog.

   Have the wrong-sized bucket seats, I guess. This booster seat won't lay flush against the back of car seat. This will cause the booster seat to tip over, as there nothing's to support the booster. Called the company asking about return policy (had free shipping). They claimed I'd have to pay the shipping charge ($20 plus) to send the product back, which is nearly half the purchase price. Not a good deal. Be sure the booster seat will fit flat inside the contours of your bucket seat. It may be well worth your time to take careful measurements. Hope this review was useful. Thanks.
