Domino was only 3 years old when she was thrown out of the Jeep. Her best friend had buckled the Dalmatian in the back seat before they left the house on this beautiful Sunday morning. They were only 3 miles from home. Evidence on scene showed the car harness had failed. Domino had been thrown from the vehicle during the accident, she was injured. Scared and alone, Domino had fled from the scene of the accident...

I made a promise to an injured young lady that I would find her dog if she would let us load her into the ambulance... She didn't care about her own injuries... All she wanted... was her dog.

We never found Domino

Frequently Asked Questions

Click on Down Arrow for answers... Contact the Big Dog if you have additional questions

Big Dog Seat Belts are Custom Built... are they adjustable?

Yes, The Big Dog Seat Belt is adjustable in the chest, neck and shoulder areas. These are the most common areas that would need adjustment.

With any dog, body shape can fluctuate by diet, stress and exercise.

There can be many variables to consider... Contact the Big Dog for specific needs.

Can my dog move around freely in the car?

For your dogs safety - No... Freedom of movement inside a vehicle is dangerous for the dog as well as every other occupant inside the vehicle.

Restraint systems that use a tether for freedom of movement inside the vehicle are extremely dangerous. These can get tangled, breaking legs and causing more serious, even fatal injuries during an accident or even a quick stop.

Can my dog lay down wearing a Big Dog Seat Belt?

Yes...It is important for your dog to be able to sit up as well as lay down comfortably inside your vehicle. It is also important to check the fit and function of any restraint system. You should also take your dog out of your vehicle for exercise and restroom breaks often.

Why is the back seat the safest place for a dog?

The Front Seat of a vehicle is a "Kill Zone" for your dog. Airbags deploy at over 200 mph capable of killing even the biggest dogs. The Back Seat - During a rear end collision the back seat is utilized to protect the passenger by absorbing some of the impact. Rear Cargo Area - in a rear end collision your dog will be thrown into the rear door or rear glass window.
