Can you use this in a front bucket seat? She likes to be up front with me, but I don't want her on my lap which is where she like to be.

I believe you could, but I prefer the safety of the back seat so there is no trying to climb over to me, the driver. You can adjust it short enough to allow only enough room to be in a sitting or lying position on the bucket seat. Again, I would be more concerned about the safety should an airbag deploy, too. That could be very harmful to a dog and the back seat would just be much safer all around - in my opinion.

They sell a short strap that connects the harness to the seatbelt--but I would think the reality is she could still stretch over to the driver's seat particularly in a small car or pickup cab.

Yes it can go in the front, but if your dog is anything like mine, you'll probably want to combine this with a booster seat. My dog used to sit on my lap too, and I was always so paranoid she would get hurt, but she would whine and try to jump on my lap whenever I put her in the passenger seat, which wasn't safe either. So I got a harnesses and a booster seat and now she's content to sit in the passenger seat, as long as I still pet her. Definitely make sure you can turn the airbag off.

You can use it up front, but the seatbelt might be long enough for her to try and get into your lap anyway.Maybe you can buckle the seatbelt and see how far it comes over to the driver's side. if it reaches all the way, she'll be able to move that far.

Leslie,I normally keep my dog in the back seat of my car, but on occasion (he always prefers the front seat) I will let him sit up front with me. I just attach the leash or a rope around the passengers seat with enough slack and attach the clasp or other end of rope to the loop on the back of his harness. I allow enough slack for him to move about - somewhat, but not enough so that if I slammed on the brakes he would hit the dash or window.I hope this helps. Best regards,Jeff Turner

Yes. It works like a child car seat and can be used in both the front or back seat. Love it!!

I don't see why you couldn't. It's a barrier, and it's thin, you might have to pull the front seat up a little. I love mine, so much I bought another one for the husband's car.

I don't believe this will work in the front seat, as it attaches much like a car seat, additionally for the safety of your pet, and according to videos by Click It, etc. the back seat is highly recommended. If your going to have your dog ride in front, might as well not by the harness, to be honest. You will likely need a large for the breed and weight you mentioned , but I would reference the measurements to determine size on their website to be accurate.

As far as I can tell, the answer is basically no, not while someone is sitting on the commode seat. The seat itself must be raised in order to remove the bucket. A seated person has space between the legs in front and in the back that would permit reaching down for washing but only if they are quite thin in the hips and thighs.

No - the bucket seats are deeper and the console portion of the seat would not work very well.

I never tried that but I don't think a car seat will fit in the front. Only the back seat reclines. You also may not find it as sturdy as you would like for it to be. It was okay for us (2 toddlers) but it did not receive a lot of heavy use. There are others much easier to steer. Consider the city select.

Yes, you can slide the bucket while someone is on the seat. If you lift the top the bucket is lifted also, because the slide is attached to the seat so the only way to remove the bucket is to slide it in the back

No I have not tried it in a car and know it will not work with this product. I do have a "Solvit Tagalong Pet Booster Seat", for my Yorkie and fits and works perfectly in front passenger seat. The Outward hound Front carrier is just for me to carry her in front of me when doing errands or when it's raining out. The only thing I do not like about this product (medium in size) is too small or tight for my 5 pound puppy to move around in.

You tie it to the front seats so you could tie it low or high, whatever you need. If you tie it tightly I don't think your dog would be able to nose his way under it. The trick is to tie it tightly to the 2 front seats. Good luck ~

Yes you can but it is not as comfortable and tends to pull you forward. Since it opens up and extends outward it would be awkward and heavy wearing it in the front. When we hiked with her in it it was far more comfortable wearing it on our backs.

Honestly you just put it on the floor between bucket seats. The seats stop it from moving side to side and the weight of it keeps it from going forward or back. You could always screw it down or use velcro (not sure how well velcro would hold). I honestly don't see how it would fit with a bench seat. It is a rather large console that reaches from front to back. Be sure to check the specs and measure your available space.

it will allow your seats to move if you have an entire row connected.....not if you have bucket seats.....it's only connected to the headrests so moving a row back and forth isn't a problem at all...it's easy to take off and on.....and doesn't rattle....it really works well...I have 3 large dogs and it keeps them in place.

If you can reach around to fasten the straps behind the seat, Yes. Otherwise, I would not recommend it in the back seat because it can fly up and hurl the pet against the roof.

I would not have my dogs in the front seat, so I don't think the airbag situation would arise. They are adjustable, so depending on the size of your dog, you can shorten or lengthen to allow the room to move which you feel is safe for your pet.

Not normally, even if it is not tied down due to the backing and resistance between the seat and the pad. But to be sure, use the tie downs that come with the pad. With that said, experiment with the amount of air you put in it as it will move between her bum and the seat due to under-inflation. Kind of a wallowing motion. Some people like this as it is very soft for sitting long periods of time. But the pad itself should not move at all.

have not tried that yet, bec my 1 yr old can sit in front w/o the infant car seat. Without the infant car seat, my 3 yr old girl sits comfortably..it has straps too so it is safe esp when your kid decided to stand up while your crossing a street. just the compartment below i found it small BUT its not a deal breaker for us.
