Dogs in the back of pick ups
This is a real issue where I live. The pick up is just as popular
around here as the SUV is every where else. I see so many dogs in the back of these trucks. Some people have trainded their dogs to ride on top of their tools boxes. How these dogs don't fly over the cabs when the truck stops, is beyond me. I hate driving behind them. I'll never understand why it is aloud to let your dog ride in the open like that. |

Dogs in the back of pick ups
I don't understand why people let their dogs ride in the back of a pick
up either. No matter how well trained they are or no matter how much they love it, it is dangerous whether they are tethered or not. The fools down here let their children ride on tool boxes or worse yet on top of hay bales that are level with the cab. (FL) Be Free, Judy |

Maybe it is in some states and not in others; don't know the answer, but it is not safe for the dog. They get bounced and thrown around and could get hurt or fall out easily. ---------- |

rec.pets.dogs.behavior: I am totally against a dog in the back of pickup. Heh, jump on the bandwagon. Actually, I thought it was illegal to drive like. Maybe it is in some states and not in others; don't know the answer, In my country, it's a city/municipality issue, so the laws vary. Here, in a big city, it's a large fine, but uncontained dogs in a pickup bed is, here, more of a rural issue. Of course, enforcement is yet another issue. but it is not safe for the dog. They get bounced and thrown around and could get hurt or fall out easily. Or, if tethered poorly, get hung or dragged. -- --Matt. Rocky's a Dog. |
