PetSafe Happy Ride Metal Dog Barrier, Pet Gate Vehicle Divider for Cars, Minivans & SUVs

I was loking for a Metal Dog Barrier for my family car, for our road trips with our furry friend. Sturdy and Reliable: The metal frame is incredibly sturdy and provides a secure barrier between the front and back seats. It keeps my dog safely in the cargo area, preventing any distractions while driving. Easy to Install: The setup was a breeze! The tension system and rubberized caps make it easy to adjust and secure the barrier without any tools. It fits perfectly in my SUV and stays in place, even on bumpy roads. Adjustable and Versatile: The adjustable design is fantastic. It fits a wide range of vehicle sizes and configurations, making it versatile for different cars. The barrier doesn’t obstruct my view, allowing me to keep an eye on my dog while driving. Quiet and Rattle-Free: One of the best features is the rattle-free design. Unlike other barriers I’ve tried, this one doesn’t make any noise, ensuring a peaceful and quiet ride. Convenient Storage: When not in use, the barrier disassembles quickly and fits neatly into the included storage pouch. It’s compact and easy to store, which is a huge plus. Overall, I highly recommend the PetSafe Happy Ride Metal Dog Barrier. It’s a well-designed, durable, and easy-to-use solution for keeping your dog safe and secure during car rides. A must-have for any pet owner who loves to travel with their furry companion!

I was having trouble finding a barrier to fit a Fiat 500 (2dr), as you need one that is taller than normal and very narrow. This one fits nicely! As an added bonus, you can adjust the horizontal bars at the bottom to allow your dog entry into the back seat by simply folding the front seat forward as you normally would. No need to touch the divider. I do suggest you have a roll of electrical tape handy when assembling this, using it to make some bushings will solve the rattles and make it much sturdier. 1) The hoops expand (like a trombone slide), and therefore the diameter of the tubing on one side is different than the other side. The smaller diameter tubing does fit tightly into the clamps that attach to the vertical supports. 2) The second one is not visible in the photos, the vertical tubes are a piece of tubing with a piece of all-thread inside that fits loosely. They are adjusted by turning a large wingnut that is at the end of the tubing. Unfortunately, this creates a lot of rattles and allow the entire piece to wobble a lot when extended. Wrapping some tape around the end of the all-thread (inside the tubing) to make a bushing not only solves the rattle, it makes the entire piece much stronger. As other reviews mention, the assembly instructions are not good but the pictures on the box help. Also, mine was missing a part so I contacted the manufacturer and had a replacement in a couple of days. I'm pretty happy with this overall, expecially for the price.

I needed a solution for keeping my two 100lbs dogs safe and separated from the passengers in my 2015 GMC Yukon XL. I decided to remove the 3rd row bench and the storage compartment in the trunk, which is nice for storing small items in it, but creates a slanted cargo area, which makes groceries roll right out of your vehicle once you open the trunk. With the bench removed you get a flat cargo area, which is just a bit uneven due to the bolts from the bench (which I put back in place after removing the bench) and the brackets holding the storage compartment. I put down a piece of 3/4 plywood wrapped in carpet - this results in a 48" wide and 55" long surface, more than enough for two big dogs and it gives you a nice surface to install the pet barrier. Installation is straight forward with clear instructions and is done in 10 to 15 minutes. I took some more time to make sure the uprights of the pet barrier were as straight as possible and I also fixed the bottom feet with some screws to my plywood floor. This way I can be sure that my dogs cannot knock the barrier over or out of place if they slam in it - in case I have to brake hard or they start goofing around in the trunk. Because the gate is installed behind the 2nd row bucket seats I needed to cover the lower space between the bucket seats so the dogs would not try to crawl under the barrier into the passenger compartment. Another piece of plywood wrapped in carpet did the trick and was zip-tied to the bottom of the barrier. That is not a fault of the product, just a challenge of my specific application. With the barrier installed I can fit items up to 4ft length in the trunk, if I need to transport longer items I can easily remove the horizontal bars with the quick release buttons, while letting the uprights installed. With the 2nd row seats folded down I can then fit 8 ft long items. For longer and wider items I abandon the trunk anyways and attach the cargo trailer... ;o) All in all a 5 star item - no complaints whatsoever. Solid made, clear instructions, no tools necessary for installation, easily adjustable in with and height and versatile due to the quick release function of the horizontal bars. I read in an other review the barrier would rattle... not mine, it makes no noise whatsoever - or at least no noise which I could distinguish from the general noise my Yukon makes when I go down a dirt road... ;o)

Placed the gate in an Acura MDX and works well in keeping two dogs (mid size) in the back area. Easy to put in and very sturdy.

Easy to install! Did it myself. Durable and good material! Works well with keeping my dog away from disrupting my driving.

Easy to install, does the job keeping our 60 lab in the right part of the car. Had bought one from a retail store couldn't out it together.

Se ve que es buen producto pero llegó incompleto, faltaron dos bases circulares que son las que sostienen las barras al techo y piso. Lamentablemente en un descuido rompí una de las piezas así que no podré cambiarlo ni devolverlo. Mala suerte y descuido pero se ve buena calidad del producto.

ステップワゴンには合わないかも？ですσ(^_^;)天井がベコベコしているので固定するには頼りなく、本品と車内の高さが合わないので、上げ底（ウチは材木）で高さを出して使っていますξ 横巾も調節出来るし、しっかりした作りなので、商品はとてもいいと思います。 ご面倒でも車内の高さを測ってから購入された方が間違いないかもです∀ ウチは工夫しながら使います◎
