Do you like to take your dog on weekend adventures? If you do, or if you’re thinking about taking your best friend for a spin, then you should check a few safety items beforehand.
Besides telling your dog to jump in and pick a spot there’s features on the inside of the vehicle that can go a long way towards making everyone safe and comfortable. We have listed some of the pet-friendly features of Toyota vehicles like the RAV4 crossover, Highlander SUV and Sienna minivan. Toyota says Let's Go Places - with Pets!
Dog-Friendly Features of Toyota Models
Some vehicle features that make the drive more comfortable for dogs include:
- A low height to enter the vehicle.
- A rear liftgate or hatch.
- Climate control in the rear.
- Spaciousness.
- Seats that fold flat.
- Childproof windows and doors.
- Storage options that keep your items out of the way of your pet.
- Interior build to last that is stain resistant and easy to clean.
Don't forget to pack plenty of water, clean towels, blankets, pet food, clean bowls and plastic bags for pet waste and trash clean up.
You may enjoy having your pet in your lap or seeing your dog hang out of the window but you should keep your pet harnessed or secured as much as possible so they don’t distract you and risk injury while you are driving.
