Study Shows Many Pet Safety Restraints for Vehicles are Unsafe

Subaru and the Center for Pet Safety Announce Full Study Crash Testing Results

Subaru and the Center for Pet Safety (CPS) teamed up earlier in the year to create a standard for pet safety restraint testing as well as test the effectiveness for current marketed harnesses (you can check out our blog on the subject here for more info). What they found is that there are many serious flaws in a lot of the popular pet safety restraints for sale today. Not only that, but many of the tests resulted in huge failure.

The purpose of this study is to reiterate the importance of driving safely with pets, as well as assist in the creation of safety standards for pet harnesses by using the data collected in the study.

The overall test results did show that Sleepypod’s Clickit Utility Harness was the clear top brand; it was the only one that consistently kept the crash test dog from launching off of the seat as well as offer substantial protection to passengers, according to Subaru’s press release.
