does it work in a car for travel anxiety?

I haven't tried it for that, but thanks for the idea; one of my dogs has both fear of thunder/fireworks and travel anxiety. It should work, it's based on the same principal - to provide snug physical contact during a situation causing anxiety. The question is "how much will it work?" I have found the thundershirt does not eliminate my dogs' thunder/fireworks fear, but does moderate it somewhat. Normally my dog is literally glued to my leg during thunder events. With the shirt, she still wants to be near me -- but she doesn't need to be in constant physical contact. I will try the shirt for short drives and see if it helps alleviate the fear. My dog crouches in fear on the floor of the backseat and has uncontrollable drooling. Based on the small success with storm events, I expect I might be able to get her to stop the drooling - still huddle on the floor, but not uncontrollably. Good luck.

My dog "gets used" to it after about 10 min....but it may help take the edge off

The Thundershirt didn't work for our Yorkie at all- it had no effect whatever. We took it back to the pet store and got a refund. Sorry we can't help or answer your question better.

I don't know if the thundershirt would work in a car for travel anxiety, but I do know that it works for thunder anxiety. It seems to give our Boxer a sense of security and "hugging" and she doesn't seem as frightened when we put it on her.

No, its not really designed for use in a car unless youre connecting it to a laptop.

I haven't done it personally with this booster specifically, but did travel with a convertible car seat with no problem. We actually bought an affordable model specifically for travel in case the airline lose or damage it.

This product requires an electrical outlet. So if your vehicle has a standard plug like the one in your house then you can plug in and use in your car. I wouldnt reccommend using this while driving. But as a passenger, sure!

I never tried it in the car. I was disappointed after using it twice and sent it back for a full refund.

Yes in fact it might be a hair to small but not using it in an automobile i am not positive either way. it was a little bit smaller than i actually needed but it does the job just finel

Yes. I use mine in my truck for long drives and it has helped immensely. The air sides are useless and do nothing but the massage is very helpful.

It's not a travel booster. Just a seat for like restaurants or when you don't have a high chair. Will do nothing for car safety.

I don't think it would work in the car between two front seats as there is no place to "jam" in the butler. The butlers steadiness depends on how well it is jammed between the cushion edges.

You need an adapter once it is a car cooler, but it is really worth it. If you travel a lot, and you sleep in hotels the adatper is really useful

Yes, used it in the car with one on one of my husband's let's drive to Summit to get race car parts days. :)

I don't use it. Tried it once and can't justify using it on a 500+ piece of eqy. I'm sure it works. But I rather focus on the road and people in cars then keep looking down to see if my phone is still there.

Not really unless you are in first class and can put it under two seats. It is helpful while traveling though especially through airport and hotels etc. You may want to see if your airline lets strollers up to gate then takes them and then get a shoulder bag for under seat for your cat or dog in flight. It folds relatively flat so works great for car travel, even some restaurants will let you park it near your table on there deck. I do love mine and use it while running errands so I don't have to leave my dog in the car.

Yes. I have used mine in both my office and in my car. Works great! Plus you can use the heat feature with and without the "massage" feature (which is really a gentle vibration).

yes, it does. As we were traveling in two cars..I got this one for my husband.

I only use in cars so you may have to try it and return if doesn't work for you. Really love mine.

Yes. It does. I use it this way while busy at office. But not during driving. An earhook provides more fixation at the right place.
