Bringing your furry best friend along for car rides is a joy, but the aftermath – dog hair clinging to every surface, muddy paw prints, and unexpected slobber – can be a nuisance. Fortunately, a durable car seat cover offers a simple yet effective solution, safeguarding your car’s interior from the inevitable wear and tear of traveling with your pup. Kurgo provides a range of high-quality seat protectors designed to cater to various needs, whether your dog rides shotgun, in the back, or claims the cargo area as their own. All Kurgo seat covers are crafted from robust, stain-resistant, and waterproof fabric, featuring multiple attachment points for a secure fit and convenient openings for seatbelt access, along with handy pockets for storing toys and treats.
Choosing the Right Kurgo Dog Seat Cover
The ideal seat cover depends entirely on where your dog prefers to travel. For canine companions who enjoy the front passenger seat, a bucket seat cover is an excellent choice. These are specifically designed to fit snugly around the bottom and back of individual seats and can also be used on other single seats in the vehicle.
For those who prefer the spaciousness of the back seat, Kurgo’s popular bench seat covers offer comprehensive, door-to-door protection. Constructed from rugged, waterproof materials, these covers create a reliable barrier against moisture, dirt, and dog hair. They are available in various styles to suit different travel needs and come equipped with multiple attachment points – at the top, middle, and underneath the seat – ensuring the cover remains firmly in place. Most standard bench seats measure 55 inches wide; for larger seats, Kurgo offers extended width bench seat covers.
Another versatile option for the back seat is a dog hammock. This design provides all-around protection, extending from the back of the front seats to the front of the back seats, preventing dogs from falling into the footwell. It also acts as a barrier, deterring your pup from jumping into the front of the car. Many of Kurgo’s dog car hammocks feature center zippers, allowing you to fold back half of the hammock to accommodate a human passenger. Alternatively, a half hammock option keeps your dog safely contained to one side of the back seat, leaving ample space for a passenger.
If your dog’s domain is typically the cargo area, Kurgo’s Rover Cargo Cape is the perfect solution to keep that space free from dirt and grime. This cover lays flat in the storage area and includes multiple attachment points for a secure fit. A center zipper allows for easy folding of seats up and down as needed. Once your journey is complete, a waterproof bumper guard unfolds to shield your bumper from sharp claws.
Enhancing Protection with Car Door Guards
Does your dog have a habit of leaning out the window with their head in the breeze? To protect your door and windowsill from scratches, dirt, and moisture, consider Kurgo’s car door guard. This accessory is an excellent complement to any car seat protector for dogs. Locking tabs are designed to fit securely between the window and windowsill, ensuring the door guard stays firmly in place.
