Pulled Over Dogs in Bed of Truck

I don't think this is a bad law at all, I just don't think it flys on the east side in cattle country.

Dumb law. My grandpa drives everywhere with 3 or 4 hunting dogs in the back they never fall out and hes never been pulled over. He trains them to stay in the truck

yea thats the way it is , if they are trained like my dog is , they will not fall out or jump out .... i do believe that if you go on a long drive that it would be better that they are kenneled up but short distances would be ok

Geez guys, what a bunch of whiners crying about the law to keep your dogs under control while in the bed of a truck! I guess it is ok if the dog jumps as you cruise at 40mps...he'll be ok? Its just a stupid dog....  How much money do you have invested in the dog?  If your dog jumps or falls out of the bed and a vehicular accident results as someone swerves to miss or stops to help....are you going to pay for the accident?  Would you haul a horse or calf this way...? Standing in the back of your truck bed, or on a flat bed?  How about your shotgun, would you (purposely) lay it on the back of your flatbed for a short little ride to town? Your tackle box?  Your toddler?

You guys would probably take better care of a shed antler you found than your dog...

i'm with iceman. i think it's a great law. and not because i'm a westsider or whatever. because too many things out of your or your dog's control can happen. if you think your dog won't fall out of the back of a truck because he was trained to stay in, you've got another thing coming. every once in a while i see a dog standing on a toolbox in the back of a truck or  i see a dog riding on a flatbed and wonder how long that dog's gonna survive and what a big idiot that guy is who doesn't care about the dog or how much money they have into training, how much their kid loves the dog, etc.
the dog is trained to not fall out? come on people.
i can see how it probably is not a popular law out in cattle country, but it's still a good law.

I am telling you it won't fly with the cattleman of the eastside or his dogs . my dad has ran cattle his whole life and has never had a problem. maybe on the west side i would agree. if a trooper stopped my ole man and gave him a ticket he would wipe his ass with it and send it back to oly. do what you deem safe and let what others do alone. like I said it's not a bad law at all, you just can't teach an old dog new tricks. every situation is differrent I have a choc. lab that I will not let ride in the back, but my dad has border collies that would tottaly freak out in the cab or crate.
