After my car accident today, I want to invest in those dog seatbelts. We were all ok, and I always keep leashes on the dogs in the car, but had I been hurt and not able to grab their leashes I'm afraid of what could have happened. Crates are not an option, they don't fit in my car and buying a vehicle for the dogs is not going to happen either. I've seen a few dogs come into the vet office for car accidents, the ones that were crated had far more injuries than the ones who weren't. Stabbed by metal wires or plastic crates shattered like an explosion.

Any suggestion on dog seatbelts for German Shepherds?
