The trouble is, that although I love them both, the two aren\u2019t always that lovely together. I admit that in certain areas of my life I can be a bit obsessed with neatness \u2013 the car is one of those areas. So for quite a while I\u2019d be looking for ways to keep my car clean and tidy yet have my dog with me too. If you\u2019ve also been looking for fail-safe ways to dog proof your car, read on!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>My dog keeps me grounded. He\u2019s the one member of my family who always seems pleased to see me when I get home from work. He\u2019s the one that brings my blood pressure back to normal levels during stressful times. He\u2019s very often the one who makes me laugh. So naturally I like him to travel with me whenever possible. My car gives me joy in a very different way. It\u2019s my Goldilocks car \u2013 not too big, not too small, but just right. It has transported me to some wonderful places with memories that I treasure. Fortunately I\u2019ve found some simple additions to the car, that keep it as clean and pristine as it can possibly be with a dog on board who tends to shed and drool. Importantly, they help to give my pawsome friend a comfortable ride too.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Dog proof your car &#8211; tip 1<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The first essential to dog proof your car is unquestionably a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travall.com\/products\/travall-guard.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Travall Guard (opens in a new tab)\">Travall Guard<\/a>.\u00a0 With this pet barrier in position there\u2019s no chance of my dog climbing over the seats in the car, leaving hair, mud and wet paw prints on the upholstery.\u00a0 My dog is securely positioned at the rear of the vehicle \u2013 he is comfortable and so are my other passengers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2425 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Dog-in-car-with-TDG-installed.jpg\" alt=\"dog proof your car\" width=\"1376\" height=\"1032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Dog-in-car-with-TDG-installed.jpg 1376w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Dog-in-car-with-TDG-installed-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Dog-in-car-with-TDG-installed-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Dog-in-car-with-TDG-installed-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1376px) 100vw, 1376px\" \/><br \/>\r\n<figcaption>Dog securely position in car with Travall Guard installed<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2>Dog proof your car &#8211; tip 2<\/h2>\r\n<p>The second must-have item is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travall.com\/products\/travall-liner.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Travall CargoMat (opens in a new tab)\">Travall CargoMat<\/a>.\u00a0 With my dog at the rear of the vehicle, I don\u2019t particularly want to be vacuuming the trunk after every trip.\u00a0 Adding the rubber trunk liner has made life simple.
