In British Columbia,Canada it is illegal to transport a dog loose in the
back of a pickup . but I have seen many RCMP drive right past this
infraction of the law! even stop in town next to a pickup with a loose dog
in the back and do nothing! This is not a priority to them? It is called a
blue law I believe?
There is no law about dogs being behind barriers or crated in cars here.
there should be , but then there would be no enforcement of the law anyway
<sigh>

One law that HAS passed - and those of us on the East Coast need to keep
in mind - in the state of PA, you must have your dog crated or contained
(belted into a 'doggie seat' or similar) or behind a secure barrier
containing the dog in the rear of the vehicle / cargo area of the
vehicle. If your dog is riding loose with you (as many Cavaliers do!)
and you are involved in a traffic accident - even if someone else hits
you - you will be charged - because your dog was loose in your car! Do
be careful to find out the rules - especially when you travel!

You are absolutely correct Peggy and I include that tidbit in my puppy
packet. Dogs become projectiles in traffic accidents and for their safety
as well
as the occupants of the car (to say nothing of a dog who wants to share in
the driving duties!), it's responsible to keep them crated or as you point
out, behind a barrier. Now, convincing companion people to do it is quite
another matter <G>.
