Dogs and neighbors.

Your choice, in fact don't restrain yourself or your kids, either. Or maybe you have a waiver from the laws of physics. In my world, a dog traveling at 60 mph will continue to travel at 60 mph even if the vehicle abruptly stops. That may include a brief interaction with you and or the windshield. :laughing:

My dog would probably be ejected from the vehicle as my dog rides in the back of the truck, as all dogs should since their dogs not humans. But that's just me thinking out loud here. As for me and my kids, buckle up! If humans licked their bottom, sniffed each other's rears and then tried to lick you in the face would you view them the same? I think not.

"My two pit bulls are sweet as can be and only bite and maim my kids"

They make great lap dogs!

I don't understand why they bit the postman.
He must have provoked them!!!

I assure you more kids grow up and maim or kill more people than pit bulls ever will. Dogs aren't the problem, it's their owners. Kids aren't the problem, it's their parents.

I assure you the pit blood line has more tendency to turn. There is plenty of data to support the fact. It doesn't matter who the owner is. I guess in your world if the preachers kid commits a crime the preacher and the preachers wife is the "problem"

They are the major contributing factor.

I worry more about deer coming through the windshield than a dog.

This has nothing to do with kids so dont' try to change the subject. If you want to buckle up your dog feel free but understand that there are plenty of us country folks who would get a heck of a laugh watching someone buckle up thier dog in the prius so they can go get a latte. I have never seen it done around here but I suspect the closes people who would buckle up a dog are probably in Colorado. I know if I ever see it being done I will get a big kick out of it.

Seriously do you buckle up any heavy object in the car so it doesn't cause an injury in an accident. I hear backpacks can have some wild interaction with a windshield during a wreck, as can groceries. LAffin. City folks just dont' get it.

Pretty sure city folks think that a dog riding in the bad is cruelty to animals.

I enjoy hearing about stuff like this but am glad that I live away from people with the kind of thinking that dogs need seatbelts and should not be allowed to ride in the back of trucks. But these idiots woudl probably try to buckle up thier goldfish for the ride home as well so better to just laugh at them if they try to tell you what to do with your animals. Heck they probably think cattle and horses should be buckled up in trailers as well.

Not necessarily.
