Pictures & Video of my dog coming to work in my turbo

So I had another thread posing the question whether or not I should remove my seat for my dog, and I decided to do it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xHTD_K5zds&fmt=18

for reference, in the picture and the video the dog is sitting as far back as he can, and he is taking up almost all the available space, so for all you "just recline the seat" guys... not even close.

thanks for the advice guys, having him in the office was great and it was nice to have him just rest when he got him and I was able to unwind nicely.

Man that's . Very cool to see though. I gotta say if you're in any kind of head on collision, she's dead for sure. Maybe not in a 5 mph bump, but anything serious and she's gone.

this same nonsense came out in the last thread. Obviously having dogs in cars isn't very safe, but nobody ever has an issue with a golden retriever in the back of an SUV, please explain to me how that's OK, and this isn't...

although on the same note, I do think it's nice having him in the car because it means I drive so much slower than I typically would and so the likelihood of my getting speeding tickets in the future will be drastically reduced.

Congratulations!!

You should try to figure out a harness solution with the back seat and turn off the passenger side airbag as they say they will really hurt the dog. although at that size it may work - not sure I would take a chance though.

good luck!

Reminds me of that episode on American Chopper where Paul Sr. takes his beloved dog out in the AMG SL63...what a mess that dog made...I couldn't watch it, makes me cringe just thinking of it. But if you love your dog and it makes you happy to have them by your side then that is what living is all about...
