Dog barrier for double cab - TundraTalk.net

terrie murphy · 06-10-2009, 06:47 PM

Hi everybody in dogville! I have two BIG dogs who I want to keep securely in the back seat. I have bucket seats with a fixed console. Any recommendations?

Seat belts? No clue. Welcome to the site.

Get a cap for the bed and put em way back so you don't ruin your'e cab......Over

Train them to stay back there. I have 2 Blue Heelers and the only time they come up front is when I get out of the truck.

I have not seen any type of temporary barrier on the internet for our trucks.

Mine stays in back while driving but I did not want her in front when I park and leave so I custom made this barrier. It did not take long. Used the center console bolts at bottom and the at top of console I drilled and used aluminum nutserts to put two more anchors in. It keeps her in back and can be easily removed if needed.
This is a first gen:

I'd get a cop car barrier. they should be big enough and with a little fabbing, you'd be all set. My dog can climb over the back of the seats and get in the front.

Holy crap TN, what kind of dog do you have?

She's a German Shorthair, she won't climb over the seats. Although she would fit.

They were expensive. This cost me about $20 in steel bar and paint. Makes some of my hunting buddies feel right at home back there. All they need is the handcuffs.

Opening the console cover works good when I'm not in the truck. When I'm in the truck, my elbow works well

Thanks for the ideas re the dogs! Has anyone tried the 4 paws k-9 unit? It has an access door that looks helpful...

lol same thing I do. I am just afraid one day im gonna come out and he is gonna jump over the console and end up in the massive cavern it is.

I'm interested in the same thing .

Also does anyone know of any good rear seat covers or anything for a CrewMax? My Chocolate Lab loses hair like there's no tomorrow and right now I just have a blanket drapped over the rear seat but it looks like hell. Looking for something that is an actual tailored fit for the rear seat.

Man I love my dog...........but hE STINKS NO MATTER HOW MANY TIME YOU WASH HIM AND THE TRUCK WHERE HE LAYS IT STILL STINKS.

I had an F/J Cruiser and I pretty much sold it so I could put Bruno in da back of the Tundra under the cap with no worries.

Just my 2 cents....Over

What cap do you have and how do you like it? Does the window open to the cab?
