I’m very excited to welcome my new blog sponsor, K9 CarFence!
You might remember a couple of months ago I got to test out their K9 CarFence in my own car (you can read my review here).
I’m a huge advocate of keeping pets safe in the car (we’re all precious cargo now aren’t we?), and the K9 Carfence is one of those products that does just that! We should all be able to agree that allowing your dog to roam freely in the car while you are driving is not very safe, for you or your pet. With the K9Carfence you can still allow your dog that freedom in the car, while keeping them safe at the same time.
I had a wonderful group of entries in our K9 Carfence Giveaway, and I loved hearing about all the fun places everyone travels with their dogs. And more importantly I loved hearing how interested everyone was in keeping their pets safe!
Sadly we can choose only one winner this time, and our winner is:
Who says: My furry babies love walking the trails at a local park. They love it so much, in fact, that they can hardly contain themselves in the backseat. So this would be perfect!
But even if you didn’t win this time, you won’t have to go home empty handed! The wonderful people at K9Carfence would like to extend a special promotional price of $88 on their K9Carfence (plus shipping and sales tax where applicable) — this is a $21 savings off normal price of $109.
To get this special promotion price, simply send them an email at safe@k9carfence.com with the subject being the Ammo Special Price to get a K9 CarFence for $88. This offer will expire January 31, 2013 so act now!

You might remember that a couple of months ago I featured a new product I had seen at an event called the K9Carfence, an in-car safety fence designed for small dogs.
Well recently the K9Carfence company offered me up a chance to take their product for a test drive.
At first I was a bit worried that I might have to give up the booster seat that I have been riding in since I was just a wee pup, but I was relieved to hear that my booster could easily fit inside the K9Carfence system.
The K9Carfence easily attaches to any front or back seat of a car (I personally prefer to ride in the back seat) to keep your dog protected and secure while riding in the car.
And while I prefer to put my booster seat inside the K9Carfence, you do have the option to simply let your dog move freely within the space. This would be great for dogs that don’t like to be confined while in the car, and still want to be able to look out of the window or easily change positions.
Should you need to take down the K9Carfence for any non-furry passengers, it easily unsnaps and can be pushed underneath a seat, leaving the seat protector in place and the seat belts still fully functional.
Or if you prefer, with a few more easy steps you can roll the entire K9Carfence into a neat little travel bag making it easy to transport into another vehicle or to stow away until you need it again.
Here’s a short video I shot while taking the K9Carfence for a test ride:
As you can see adjusting to the K9Carfence wasn’t even an issue for me, and although I didn’t test it out in any sudden stops (mom says she’s a very good driver and has a zero accident record – and I’m hoping she keeps it that way), it does seem like it would prevent me from flying around the car should we ever have an accident. And one can never be too safe when the lives of cute little Dachshunds are at stake!
Catches and cradles dogs in a soft strong net in case of sudden stops
Fast, easy, no-tools set up
Keeps your pet visible to you at all times with the see-through mesh
Keeps pets in a safe confined area and out from under car pedals or laps which can easily distract a driver
Can accommodate multiple dogs within one K9Carfence
Easy to fold up and move to another vehicle
We should all be able to agree that allowing your dog to roam freely in the car while you are driving is not very safe, for you or your pet. With the K9Carfence you can still allow your dog that freedom in the car, while keeping them safe at the same time.

Last weekend I got to go on a brand new adventure!
When Mom pulled up to the automatic car wash, I had no idea what was in store. There seemed to be a lot of “No” rules – but thank goodness it didn’t say “No wiener dogs”.
I watched in fascination as the swirly-ma-jigs and what-za-ma-call-its whipped around the truck.
It was very loud and noisy, but brave super heroes like me never get scared.
When the car wash was over I was a wee bit sad.
“Oh mom, can we please drive through the biggest mud puddle we can find so we can ride through the car wash again?”
Sometimes when my mom’s truck is full to the brim with stuff I get to ride in the front seat. Oh glorious day, how sweet the front seat is! I get a window (that rolls down I might add), and I get to feel the wind in my face.
But….pretty soon my excitement fades, and I remember that car rides make me sleepy – and there seems to be no where to sleep in the front seat. I miss my fluffy car seat in the back….
