Mini_Flower,

good info. Thanks a lot. Looking back at the first post's picture, I can see the bar you're talking about. I'm also looking at poochstyle.com for the form fit pillow for the boot. The pups, Caesar and Zoe(umlaut), would def. enjoy the fully cushioned boot for which to lounge. Nice that it packs flat, too.

As for the German instrustruction, my partner will get a big kick out of them since he's fluent and always enjoys a bit of translation duties.

thanks again.
ciao,
albert

Love the names! Of course we will need pictures at some point.

Here are the two family pups, who will soon enjoy motoring in the ClubS.
Caesar is the Jack Russell; Zoe is the Aussie Cattle Dog mix.

cheers,
albert

Aww. Cute bundles of fur osotoc!

Thanks. Caesar is 12, and Zoë turned 3 in January. They're pretty adorable, but can be rascals when they want.

I'm also considering getting a little ramp so she can walk up it and particularly when she becomes an old girl she won't be able to jump up.

Heidi is practically a toy dog in size to yours! My friend has a newf that is 13 stone so I may have to experiment getting him in to the car with his "brother"!

Yes, my boy is a big, big dog.

I would be curious how well your friend's newfie fits. I'd take my Louie up to the dealer to have him test it out, but I think they might not enjoy the slobber in the Clubbie!

I'm just worried about the strapping in or metal pole barrier or something. As you had said, that is a lot of dog flying forward in case of a quick stop or (God forbid) an accident.

Thanks for the info!

osotoc - adorable furkids! I also have a Zoe(umlaut).

Since this has developed into a "show your furkids" thread, here are my two. Louie is 6 1/2 and 205lbs, and Zoe(umlaut) is 5 and 135lbs.

speed_racer:

cute pups!! Quite the pair, esp. when you add them to the boot of the Clubbie. A bit larger than my pups (alright, A LOT larger...haha), but kids are kids.

thanks for the photos.

cheers.

Some lovely pics in this thread

Well he's not very big, but here's Bertie in our clubbie. He's an English Springer and he was 16 in January

Everyone's dogs are so cute! I guess I'd better get mine out there in the Clubman and snap a few soon.

Cute! Does he spring up to get in OK due to his age?

i've yet to persuade monty to sit in the back. The nearest i've got is his dog seat belt attatched to the thirds seat belt in rear seats !

No we lifted him in, plus Derek didn't want him to scratch the paintwork

Nicky:

Bertie looks very comfy in the Clubbie and quite adorable, as well.

cheers
