Pulled Over Dogs in Bed of Truck
Schmalzfam:
We NEVER let our dogs ride unenclosed in the back of our truck, ever! To be 100% honest, it pisses me off to see dogs free and roaming about the bed of a truck. It doesn't bother me about the cattle/working dogs, this is kinda their way of life or the dog in the bed of a truck going through town. But, if you've ever seen an animal hung over the side of the bed of a truck or the dog after it has fallen out and road rashed it's entire body :(.....you'd NEVER think about not crating them and using rachet straps to tie them down!!!

yea thats true but if your dog is trained to stay in the truck then it shouldnt be a worry or problem, i have never had problems with my dog jumping out of the truck at a stop light or falling out , not even when she sees another dog
benbo30:
although now i bought that dog/tool box that was in classifieds on here a while ago , an they are crated up now , sometimes when i take only one dog with me i let her in the bed of the truck if we are going short distance but long distance i crate them
tlbradford:
I had always let them ride loose in the back as well. I also used to let them jump over the side of the truck when called. I never had a problem, but I got softer as I got older and now he gets a nice tied down crate and the tailgate dropped for him. I know it is better and safer for the overall health of the dogs too.
Gutpile:
When will they stop protecting us from ourselves with these silly laws?/ Just a way to generate income. I agree it's not the smartest thing but I think it's just dumb to get pulled over for it.
I used to through my dog in the back occasionally but he jumped out once and I never did it without his cage again. I saw him in the mirror running after the truck. :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: WTF!!!! :chuckle: :chuckle:
