Talk to Me!
Hey Austin dogs n’ cats, I’m Mr. Biscuit, Austin’s Pet Directory official mascot. I’ve included my headshot just in case you know of someone looking for a dog to make famous. My mom keeps saying she’s waiting for me to become a star so she can retire. I have lots of ambitions, but get easily side-tracked with squirrels running around in the trees, tearing up napkins, dinner time, and Hank my pesty foster dog. Anyways, I’m stuck at home with Hank - the pesty foster dog - and a few cats that insist they are smarter than me, while my mom is at work, and thought I would just check out what all the fuss is about this blogging thing. I’m not sure what everyone blogs about, so I guess I’ll just start with something that really bugs me. Seatbelts. My grandma’s Cocker Spaniel, Molly died when she flew through the windsheild during a car accident. It makes me really sad that Molly is gone, and I just don’t know why grandma didn’t make her wear a seatbelt. I know my grandma loved Molly and she was so, so sad when she died. I guess she never thought it would happen to her. So now I get soooo mad when I see dogs sitting on their mom or dad’s lap in the car while they’re driving, or sitting in the back seat hanging out the window without wearing a seatbelt. It’s just so dangerous and I just wish people knew that most dogs will not survive a car crash without a seatbelt. It’s like letting your child ride in the car without a seatbelt, and I’m not sure why they think we are any different. Sometimes people treat us like people and sometimes they don’t. It’s very confusing. They say we are their babies, but the babies get a car seat or belt, but we don’t. Anyways maybe I should start a group called Dogs Are Worthy of Getting Seatbelts (DAWGS). Now who’s with me???????

Yes, that’s crazy - too many people just let their pets do what ever they want - even if that means risking their lives. Maybe people just need to be more educated about pet seat belts - I bet most people don’t even know they exist - thanks for bringing this up Mr. Biscuit!

I agree Mr. Biscuit - yesterday I saw a Golden Retriever with more of his/her body outside of the car than inside. If that person was hit by someone that dog would have gone flying - not to mention, the dog probably would get run over by another car once he flew out the window. People like that really piss me off!
Thanks Mr. B for spreading the word!

It sounds like another push for more laws to me. I should be able to do what I want with my pet, and he loves to hang out the window. I’d rather see him happy for 2 years and then die, than 10 years and never have any fun….no disrespect…

I love riding in the car and especially love barking at other dogs from my car. One day my mom ran into the corner store really quick and the windows were down, because she didn’t want me to get to hot, and I saw this dog walking by. Of course it’s my responsibility to keep dogs away from my car, so I jumped out to show him who was in charge, and then got hit by a car that was pulling in to park. I had to go to the hospital, but I’m OK. So now I wear a seatbelt, which is OK I guess because I just can’t help myself when another dog walks by and I know I would do it again given the chance….

Find me a seatbelt that will fit my mastif and we’ll try it. I bet he’d have just as good of a chance of making it as a person…

Yeah, that bugs me too. Not only will the dog probably fly out the window, but because the driver has the dog on their lap, they aren’t really paying attention. I can’t tell you how many people with dogs on their laps have almost crashed into me - it’s as bad as cell phones!

Where do you get the seat belts? I’ve never heard of doggie seat belts….

You can get doggie seatbelts in several sizes at stores like Petsmart and Petco, or you might be able to find them online for cheaper at PetEdge.com or something like that….
Ruff!
