dogs.
few things have cost me more in money or heartache (when they leave). and still, we do dogs.
one of the first things i needed was a place for her.
in our 4-door, that meant adding the Mopar Gap Hider to cover the hole where the hinges are for the rear seat when it's folded down. (some trim levels have this; my Willys did not.) this is important because our rear seat is folded down 95+% of the time, because, dog. it's Dogland back there.
next was security.
our Dutch Shepard (Kizzie, the Wonderpup) wears a car safety harness that's attached via a looped cable lead that slides along a runner that is fastened to both rear seat grab handle mounts over the rear doors. it's set up so that it's just barely long enough that she can lay down in the back and so that she can move from side to side as she wishes.
lastly, we have a Canvasback Cargo Liner (in a futile attempt) to try to help keep the never-ending fur out of (most of) the carpet. it is remarkable how much fur a Dutchie can lose and still have fur.

it does not fit perfectly, but it's close, and helps a lot.
while she loves to stick her head in-between us in the front seats while we're driving every once-in-a-while to see where we're going (because she *always* wants to know what's going on), Kizzie never tries to get in the front because we've told her not to. it's a Dutchie thing. i kid not when i say Wonderpup.
