MirthfulMammoth+FollowDog Car Rides: Fun or Fatal Mistake?nothing says chaos like your dog doing parkour in the backseat while you’re merging onto the highway. I used to think letting my pup hang his head out the window was peak happiness—until I learned that a 50-pound dog turns into a 2,000-pound missile in a crash. Yikes. Now, my dog’s got his own seatbelt harness. He hates it, but at least he’s not a furry projectile. Crates are even safer, but good luck convincing a golden retriever that a plastic box is a luxury ride. And yeah, those floppy ears in the wind? Cute, until you’re at the vet for eye injuries or ear infections. If your dog’s terrified of car rides, don’t force it. There’s no shame in asking your vet for help or trying training treats. The goal isn’t Instagrammable road trips—it’s making sure both of you get there in one piece. #DogSafety #PetTravel #ResponsiblePetParent #Pets493Share
