Dog Barrier

[whirlwind]

Hi, I am after a barrier to keep my dog in the rear cargo section of my Subau Outback Station Wagon

Does any one have any rcommendations?

I don't like that the genuine Subaru ones are so expensive and once there are difficult to intall and also remove.

Do any of he cheaper ones work as described?

My dog is currently a puppy but will eventually grow to approx 25 kgs. At present she hates travelling in the rear of the wagon and is constantly trying to get into the back seat.

Thanks for your advice.

We have a Subaru liberty wagon and use a Walkyguard barrier - https://www.ozpetshop.com.au/product_info.php/products_id/1964

Keeps our 2 in the back, they are 19kg and 26kg. It's pretty easy to add and remove as needed :)

For the safety of myself and my dog, I would always go the proper cargo barrier.

I have had the "do it yourself" 1s and they are fine for a dog who knows what a barrier is and respects it. I had 1 in for months and months and months once and never had an issue. Then I took a friends dog in the car that had no concept of a barrier and was very quickly able to move it.

Having said that, even with my guys who know what a barrier is I would not go back to 1 of the cheap 1s as what that incident showed me is if the dog hits it they do not remain secure so in the event of an accident you potentially have a flying dog and a flying barrier.

The cheaper ones will act as a barrier but are very unsafe in a crash. Your dog will be a projectile causing injury to you and the dog. Have a look at Milford - they do barriers for many models I think that are similar to genuine ones but cheaper.

We got our barrier for our commodore wagon from an auto wrecker, it was much cheaper and is the genuine and right one for the car. Maybe worth a call to a few wreckers in your area?
