Acclimate Your Pet to the Walk-Along™ Outdoor Harness Vehicle Restraint
Acclimation times for training in the car vary with each dog. Put the harness on your dog and follow these instructions to help make your dog comfortable in the car.
Start with short, 5-10 minute sessions in a parked car to introduce your dog to the harness. Give him time to acclimate to the restraint before driving the car in short sessions.
Have your dog hop in and out of your car and give treats while he is in the car until he is comfortable.
Sit with your pet and praise him while someone else drives.
Take longer drives once your dog is comfortable being in the car restrained.
Unhook the handle from the loop.
Run the seatbelt through the handle and buckle the seatbelt.
Reward with treats and praise until your dog is comfortable.
Note: Return handle to original position after exiting the vehicle.
