Additional Description

tensile strength standards for human seat belts, which is 5000 pounds. The Roadie tested at 9,300 pounds. The Roadie includes no collar to choke and no metal or plastic parts to break, and it helps to minimize driver distraction. All veterinarian-approved Roadie models are quick and easy to put on, take off, and attach to any vehicle's existing seatbelt system. Plus, an adjustable strap lets pet owners choose from among three secure movement options for the dog within the car seat: 1) sit/stand/lie down, 2) sit/lie down, or 3) lie down. Roadies are pleated under the front legs to prevent chafing and have a built-in short lead, making them perfect for walking, hiking, training, or any time owners and pets are on the go. Designed with the help of veterinary orthopedic surgeon, Joe Evans, DVM, the Roadie is orthopedically sound, ergonomically correct, and warranteed for the life of the animal. The Roadie is covered by a 30-day refund policy provided the product has not been chewed, mutilated, altered, or used incorrectly. Wash the Roadie by hand using only cold water and non-detergent, non-enzyme soap. Roadies are available in nine different sizes to fit dogs from 6 pounds to 200 pounds and they come with a free instructional video. To determine the proper size needed, the dog's rib cage circumference must be measured. To get the rib cage circumference, measure the dog around the largest part of the rib cage just behind the front legs while the dog is standing. Make this measurement snug, and be sure one finger can fit under the measuring tape, not two. Puppies need to be sized just like full grown dogs. It is not recommended to buy a size larger for a puppy so that he/she will grow into it. If the harness is too big, it will fall off. Size 1 is for dogs from 6 to 10 pounds and who have a rib cage circumference of 12 to 13 inches. Size 2 is for dogs from 11 to 14 pounds and who have a rib cage circumference of 13 to 16 inches. Size 3 is for dogs from 15 to 20 pounds and who have a rib cage circumference of 17 to 21 inches. Size 4 is for dogs from 21 to 30 pounds and who have a rib cage circumference of 22 to 24 inches. Size 5 is for dogs from 31 to 55 pounds and who have a rib cage circumference of 25 to 27 inches. Size 6 is for dogs from 56 to 65 pounds and who have a rib cage circumference of 28 to 31 inches. Size 7 is for dogs from 66 to 95 pounds a
