Product Information
Full details
The Summit Dog Safety Net is designed for pet owners who prioritize road safety and want to prevent their dogs from interfering with the driver during travel. This 150 x 60cm mesh barrier offers a robust physical partition between the cabin and cargo area, ensuring pets remain secure without requiring a restrictive cage. While it provides a significant safety upgrade, users should note that it is best suited for medium to large dogs, as very small pets may potentially squeeze through the mesh gaps if not properly supervised.

FAQs
Will this fit in my car?
The net is designed to be universal; as long as your vehicle has headrests with exposed metal posts, it will likely be compatible.
Can I install this in the front of my car?
Yes, it can be mounted behind the front seats or between the rear seats and the trunk, provided there are headrests for anchor points.
Is this machine washable?
It is recommended to hand-wash with mild soap and water to preserve the elasticity and integrity of the mesh.
Does it block my rearview mirror view?
No, the mesh is designed to be transparent, allowing you to monitor your pet without significantly obstructing your line of sight.
Can this stop a large dog from jumping through?
The net is effective at deterring most dogs, but its primary function is as a barrier; if your dog is extremely strong or aggressive, monitor them during the first few trips.
Troubleshooting
The net feels loose or saggy.
Adjust the tension by pulling the strap ends further through the buckle or repositioning the hooks to a tighter anchor point on the seat frame.
Hooks are slipping off the seat frame.
Ensure the hooks are secured to a solid part of the seat mechanism and check that the net is stretched evenly across the entire width.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Prevents driver distraction by keeping pets in the back
- Easy tool-free installation using integrated hooks
- Universal design compatible with most vehicle headrests

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the Summit Dog Safety Net, hook the upper attachments onto the metal posts of your vehicle's headrests. Pull the net across the width of the cabin and secure the lower hooks to the seat frames or designated anchor points. Ensure the net is centered for maximum coverage. Compatibility is high for most SUVs, hatchbacks, and sedans with rear headrests. For maintenance, periodically inspect the elastic cords and hooks for signs of wear. The net can be cleaned by wiping it down with a damp cloth or, if heavily soiled, hand-washing it in cold water and allowing it to air dry completely.
