The Roadie canine vehicle restraint allows your dog to sit stand or lie down safely. Roadie is not designed to fit skin-tight like other harnesses and it should have several inches of play in order to be comfortable and function properly.  

The short, walking leash on the back of the Roadie has two openings. 

Simply pass the vehicle seat belt through one of the openings (depending on if you want your dog to sit or lie)and clip the vehicle seat belt buckles together.

The opening on the leash closer to the dog will limit the amount of movement your pet is allowed. Pick the one that works best for you. This is one of the major differences between the Roadie and other car harnesses. Your dog is restrained by seat belt material in the harness which is then held by your own car seat belt. No standard webbing, clip, or rings that will fail on impact.


Roadie Is Not Designed To Fit Skin-Tight like Other Harnesses; A Looser Fit Assures Your Dog Stays Comfortable And Secure.

"[Lexi] looks beautiful, the leash and a carabiner hook her in safely and she doesn’t tip over when we brake anymore!! I feel much safer and I feel like she’s much safer, without her being a 45kg projectile in my car anymore." 

THE FULL STORY.. of how the best Dog Vehicle Safety Harness came about

The Ruff Rider Canine Vehicle Safety Harness was first envisioned by Carl Goldberg in Boulder Co. While traveling down a windy mountain road at five mph, a car driving up the mountain, was traveling on the wrong side of the road. When Carl slammed on his brakes to avoid a collision, his 40kg chocolate lab was ejected from the back seat and thrown through the windshield landing on the hood of the car. 

With an inspiration to make vehicles a safer place for dogs and the people riding with them, Goldberg consulted veterinary orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Joseph “Doc Joe” Evans at the Nederland Co. Veterinary Hospital.  The result; Ruff Rider Roadie is orthopedically sound and ergonomically correct.
