Highlighted Reviews

β€” Mary

"My dog can’t go past it and my dog is 140 lbs!"

β€” Kelsey

"This was easy enough to set up, but not an effective barrier. It's only about 3 inches taller than the seat hammock I already had in the back of my Kia Soul. My 3-legged GSP jumped over the barrier about .5mi into our journey and I had to pull over and stop the car to rescue him."

Bottom Line

A decent barrier for many pets, but its height may be a limitation for larger or more active dogs.
