Description
Keep your dog in the back seat and out of the driver’s lap with the Kurgo Direct to Seatbelt Swivel Tether for Dogs, Kurgo’s strongest dog seat belt tether. A locking swivel carabiner of the type used by arborists, rated to 4,500 lb of force, clips to any harness, while the opposite end plugs straight into the seat belt receiver or loops around the shoulder belt. The swivel lets your dog turn, sit, and lie down without twisting the tether, and it makes it harder for escape artists to work themselves free. The red and black webbing adjusts from 15 to 22 in, giving a broad range of movement while still stopping a dog from climbing forward and causing a distraction.
Key Features
- Locking swivel carabiner: Arborist-grade aluminum carabiner with a screw gate, rated to 4,500 lb.
- Tangle-free swivel: Rotates freely so the tether never twists the seat belt.
- Adjustable length: 15-22 in with a 10 in web loop to suit small to large dogs.
- Two installation options: Pass the seat belt through the loop and buckle, or buckle first and loop around the shoulder strap.
- Universal fit: Works with most vehicles; not compatible with Volvo and not recommended for Ford F-Series trucks.
- Distraction prevention: Designed to keep dogs in the back seat; not a crash-tested restraint.
- Lifetime warranty: Backed by Kurgo’s Lifetime Guarantee.
How to Use
Always attach to a harness, never a collar. Pass the seat belt through the tether loop and buckle it, or buckle the seat belt and loop the tether around the shoulder strap. Clip the carabiner to the back ring of your dog’s harness and screw the gate closed. Adjust the length so your dog can sit and lie down but cannot reach the front seats. Spot clean as needed. For crash protection, pair it with a crash-tested harness such as the Kurgo Enhanced Strength Tru-Fit.
