We’ve all seen the movie images of glamorous actors driving with dogs. A large, majestic dog riding proudly in the back of a pickup truck. A fluffy lap dog curled up under the arm of the leading lady as she drives around town.\u00a0 There are plenty of these scenes to be found in films. While these are romantic portrayals of life with dogs, it becomes easy to forget that driving with dogs that are loose in the car is incredibly dangerous.\u00a0 Importantly, many drivers in the UK don’t realise that there are on-the-spot fines for driving with an unrestrained dog. Neither do they realise that because of this, their car insurance may become invalid<\/span>. Rule 57 of the highway code states the following:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen in a vehicle make sure dogs or other animals are suitably restrained so they cannot distract you
\n<\/strong>while you are driving or injure you, or themselves if you have to stop quickly.”<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Fortunately, Travall has an easy solution that means your dog has a secure position in the car and you avoid the potential fine (up to \u00a35,000 and 9 points on your licence) – the<\/span> Travall Guard<\/a>. The Travall Guard is quite simply a vehicle-specific dog guard that is designed to perfectly fit the car you drive. Its precision fit ensures that there is no rattling or squeaking and the guard sits firmly in position even if your dog gives it a nudge.\u00a0 Your dog sits securely at the rear of the vehicle, allowing you to get on with the important job of driving.<\/span><\/p>\n

The price of the Travall Guard varies depending on the make, model and year of your particular car.\u00a0 It comes in at a higher level than many universal guards, but is much more affordable that those available at your car dealership. However, its price is a fraction of the expense of fines, insurance issues and other financial expenses that arise for driving with dogs loose in the car.\u00a0 The Travall Guard is steel with a special scratch-resistant coating that is not only durable but looks stylish too. It’s easy to install at home in around 15 minutes and requires no drilling or modifications to your car whatsoever.\u00a0 When you’re not transporting a dog, it’s removable in minutes for use at another time. Although many people prefer to keep it in place permanently as a luggage barrier to give extra protection for occupants of the vehicle in case of a sudden stop.<\/span><\/p>\n
