Glad you are bringing awareness to dog's car harness's, too many people leave dogs to be completely free moving in the back of a vehicle but as you said they could be hurt or hurt someone else in an accident. Even if you are the safest driver out there, other cars can still cause an accident! Better safe than sorry.

[@ChronicallyJaquie]

Yes this is such an important topic. Dogs have been seriously injured AND injured passengers when they are not restrained. And not with flimsy leash clips either, it has to be something worthwhile. The Kurgo one I use is not overly pricey and is a good option as is the Sleepy Pod, each for different scenarios.

[@phantommangagirl]

Harlow is doing her best Stella impression 😂😂😂

[@Rachmewalker]

Thank you for showing this Jaquie! Dog car safety is so important. My best friend's parents were driving on a road trip down to LA when they hit a bit of traffic. Everyone stopped but in the rear view mirror they could see a huge semi coming full speed at 75mph. They got hit bad and the dogs went into the windshield and passed away in an instant. It was really sad.

[@lynnrose7562]

Harlow is so sweet. That's great that she can still reach you if she needs to. Jaquie, you are so thorough. I'm not surprised that Harlow is safe.

[@allie4680]

Harlow is so well behaved 😍😍 Love u guys!!! You make me feel so much less alone with my chronic illnesses & your positivity is so contagious 😘

[@PaganVoodooGypsy]

Thank you for sharing this info. I love it that you discuss Harlow and feature her, she is so lovely!

[@Somedude20282]

Harlow’s little tongue sticking out throughout the video is so cute

[@kirstybean5277]

I love how thorough you are!! And you’re so pretty too, what an amazing warrior😘

[@girlmomma527]

We have one! It is the best. I got it after my brother's dog ran from their car accident. Worth every penny!!

[@ingvildkvakestad]

Harlow is somehow extra adorable Might be because I am missing my dog

[@francesd2913]

So very sorry Charles. I know how you feel, I lost my dog one week ago. It is extremely hard and reminders are everywhere.

[@blueeyeswhitedragon9839]

This is one smart dog. Harlow might be the real reason for any success of this channel.

[@laurenchildress9900]

I love the color of her car harness!! So pretty

[@jankaras8643]

I am so glad you did this video! The dog's safety while in the car is so important. I love how bored Harlow looked in the beginning of the video. :)

[@alienmissy4836]

When Harlow looks to the side it kinda looks like she's rolling jer eyes, like "mooom, why am I here?" 😂😂😂 I'm sure she's happy to be there, that's just kinda what her expression looked like to me😂😂

[@FridayFrida]

Here in Sweden, dogs are classed as cargo while in a car, and cargo has to be secured so it does not become airborne and harm something (or itself) in case of an accident. Most people go with those cages in the trunk, but I wanted a harness. I found the sleepy pod harnesses but I couldn't get one shipped to Sweden at a resonable cost. Luckily I found a just as good alternative (though not in fun colors), a harness that has passed the child safety laws both in Sweden an Germany. So I feel that my labradoodle Millicent is very secure in the back seat. :) Yay for secure dogs in cars!

[@slowedsongsaremyreligion5434]

That looks awesome for her!! Glad it helps and also eases your mind about safety. :)Also A VERY CUTE COLOR!!

[@chrisnwilm]

Harlow is like, "mommm, another video?!? I will sit pretty for you and your friends though". Love your videos!

[@samanthadominik3514]

You look so much healthier in your last few videos! So happy you are doing well and enjoying your holiday!

[@teresabowden6165]

Thats a great way to keep our dogs safe when taking them for rides.

[@Dreamer5211]

Hi Jaquie , thanks for the video , I love how Harlow cares for you. I am so glad you are looking out for Harlow too !! , Gary

[@NerakMoreneko]

Harlow is so cute! I hope you continue to enjoy with your family 😄 xo

[@hollyosgerby1901]

Great information & demonstration on the Sleepy Pod harness, Jaquie. It was so cute watching Harlow's body language and her facial expressions while you were explaining the use of the harness. It appears to be an excellent way to secure your loved one ( fur baby) in a vehicle so that they are safe from injury and also not a distraction to the driver. 👍🏼🤗❤️

[@lisaackroyd2203]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the harness. Harlow is a cute spokes model.

[@deniseperalta-smith3948]

My dog has the same harness. I feel better knowing she’s safe when we’re driving.

[@analarson2920]

Tx for sharing. Most people don't realize that most accidents occur very close to home. That said we should all strap in always Blessings.

[@tangalalynnbuchholz5479]

PRAYERS for your Aunt, you and your family. HUGS🙏💗🐾🐶

[@joannewirtz6525]

We actually use the Kurgo car harness for Riya and it works fantastic. It clips in very similarly to this one and as an added bonus, has a strap along the back that is just looking enough for me to clip a leash wrap around if we are going out for a short errand and I don't want to switch to her gear.

[@ChronicallyJaquie]

Just bought one! It looks like it is a lot easier to use and its crash tested/approved. Plus I'm fairly certain I can use this under her service dog vest. 👍

[@joannewirtz6525]

Yes! You can barely see it under the active dogs vest! I just got it two weeks ago, but I love it!

[@joannewirtz6525]

Chronically Jaquie the only downside I've found is that I'm not exactly coordinated, and the buckles can be hard to fasten. Other than that it works perfectly.

[@hannahmariellewellynllewel7128]

Happy to see hipo hardlow pup 🐶🐕 so cute and u today on your videos

[@BlizzardGhost]

I'm so happy to see ya. You have gained weight and you look so healthy now! I'm so happy you got a lot figured out with your feeding tube stuff (honestly dont know if you still have it as I've been all around youtube for the past few months)

[@wt0416]

Har is such a great model.

[@edcox6784]

Thank you for the review. Great dog. Hope mine will end up as good. He was a feral dog so it's just going to take time and a lot of patience.

[@purpleluma4715]

I think Jaquie would look so good with shoulder length hair

[@Stopinthenameoflove]

Purple Luma I have thought that forever or even just below the shoulder it would look so thick and healthy the ends are very thin probably from her health issues.

[@nickywallington9166]

Definitely, but she’s said she really likes having long hair so I think it’ll stay long. (She looks lovely either way)

[@jusgie]

Omg I just love hippo!!!! 😍😍😍😍

[@poe7226]

Jus gie don't we all 💖💖

[@cristinasolano6487]

I could watch Harlow for hours.

[@liamodonovan3437]

Great video love Jacquie

[@Tracys_Little_Patch_of_Dirt]

Sorry I'm just changing the subject a mo. I love your top the color is beautiful. Harlo is the perfect model for your demo of the harness.

[@mikegrl1]

We have two for our two goldens. Works great. Yes hard to buckle the first time but you get the motion down and they get where they need to stand. Yes it was expensive but I feel so much safer with them wearing it in the car. You look really good Jaquie!! Harlow looks so sweet!

[@janama303]

I've never seen you wear the color orange -- that's stunning, girl!! XD

[@SparkingLife111]

Harlow is precious.

[@MadammaL2022]

very good dog Harlow!!!

[@sofiapeters4181]

You put a lot of effort into your informational videos

[@hausofasmr6075]

We use the sleepy pod harness too! The only issue we have had is that the straps seem to not stay in place, we have to make the harness smaller each time we use it.

[@ChronicallyJaquie]

I have not had that issue but we only used it for the drive up, have not had it long. I wonder if the "terrain" model that came out in 2017 does that, the buckles are metal instead of plastic.

[@sketch__5972]

That smile when it was taken off.. Omg.. So adorable.

[@NorseButterfly]

Great review!👏👍🦓💜

[@nicolareay8460]

I could tell that harlow wasn't really as impressed as you were with it, lol. Like you said, you can't put a price on you're dog's life

[@ChronicallyJaquie]

Yeah, me laughing the whole time at her expressions while editing this video ;D

[@miranda814]

Omg you’re in Raleigh?! That’s where I live :0

[@kathryn7254]

Harlow is sleepy

[@ShaynaPulley]

You can put the sleepy pod on first and put the service dog gear on top. No need to remove the sleepy pod every time. We use the Ruffwear Load Up and leave it on my dog all day with her SD gear.

[@arrozchicken6550]

Okay so comments are disabled on Gastroparesis discussion video, but I wanted to say thank you for posting!!!

[@sheagoff6009]

Harlow is so cute just sitting there. I just wanna snuggle her. Unfortunately I live far away. Wish I could have some Harlow snuggles sure would make me feel better.🐶❤️❤️❤️

[@OfficiallyLydiasLife]

Lol the problem with my Service dog is he likes to lay or step on the seat belt buckle and unbuckle it 😂 He doesn't do it on purpose but it happens. So I have a extra 8 way leash and I tie it and secure it to a child restraint behind the seat, then I pop it over and buckle it either to his vest or 3 way harness. But on long rides u don't typically make him wear it because it rubs on his fur and uncomfortable. But he has great balance and never falls. So he's safe

[@judithjaroszewski8053]

Thank you for keeping our favorite doggie safe!

[@lanejames3139]

You are such a beautiful person and incredibly inspirational. I hope you guys continue to have a wonderful time on your trip and safe travels home!!!!!!!!! Love you! :)

[@ChronicallyJaquie]

Thank you!

[@rustyshackleford5518]

Did you get a new camera or something? Harlow's coat looks amazing. Are you still doing raw?

[@catheirnec9210]

cool

[@Kknderbueno]

My dog doesn’t love her sleepy pod, but I put it on her on long trips where she falls asleep anyways. I imagine what would happen if something happened to her if we got in an accident and it would kill me. I think of it just like kids who don’t like their car seat. I do wish I would put it on her for shorter trips, too, but she will try to get out of it and twist herself up.

[@TimothySmiths]

Poor Harlow was tricked into thinking she was going for a ride :)

[@imzadi83fanvids7]

Another Pro & Con - Pro: Sleepy Pod now offers a harness designed for working dogs that has optional side packs you can buy. Con: They are not recommended for certain deep chested dogs (like Greyhounds). Personally my dog (pet) is small so I use a PupSaver car seat for her. If I had a larger dog that was a breed/shape that fit I'd go for the SleepyPod. I wouldn't feel safe with a car clip as they're not crash tested, the impact from a 6omph car crash is going to be a lot more powerful then the dog just jumping out of the car. But I understand it's a difficult decision for SD owners who may be unable to constantly unhook their dog from one harness and put them in another. I hope in the future there are more car harnesses available that can double as working dog harnesses. For people who are looking Kurgo, ezydog, and Ruffware also offer car harnesses that have been crash tested.

[@alexturns1707]

What do you do when Harlow does not like being vocal then for a car ride I’m just curious

[@sapphirestudio7629]

😋I love you guys 🙂

[@pythiacael3876]

Just thought that I want to meet Harlow and get a pawshake and realize why I think later in the video. Harlow reminds me of my dog Mighty who suddenly passed away last month. Not sure of Mighty's breed but he looks similar to Harlow but just white with brown tint on his ears. Thanks for posting about safety for our furry friends and hope both you well.

Hi Jacque, I remember a few vlogs ago you and Judd went to a church but he’s trying to find a church that is called “p.........” what was the church called ?

[@PandaBearHugs]

Hi

[@NostalgicVibes]

My dogs name is Harlo!!

[@Amy-zc5ll]

Where did you get your shirt? Its so cute!

[@ChronicallyJaquie]

Marshals for $10 or maybe $12, I love it! My mom said it is so bright I will never get lost lol.

[@the_mysticxd7903]

hey j, does harlow have a special education for service dogs??how is it in the usa to get a service dog?

[@Hayden-rc1ru]

3:00 Harlow is NOT impressed. x) 7:30 So not impressed. This is hilarious.

[@lexiethetexieservicedog5610]

I agree that there should be a car safety thing for dogs but I’ve seen them put through real crash tests and fail miserably. There needs to be a government-regulated canine seatbelt system, one that provides the kind of safety the brands currently on the market purport to have, the kind of safety we should be able to expect for our dogs. But there isn’t one. And in the test I watched only one out of 16 brands passed. Which is not a very good ratio.

[@katievy9552]

Hi 👋

[@liesvandenplas8066]

Where did you get the harness? I can't seem to find it here in Belgium. And I don't seem to find a site that works... I have been looking for a car harness for a while for my service pup, but this seems super hard to find here and the ones I did find aren't good at all. Thanks in advance!

She received it from her father. This is the website though. sleepypod.com/clickit-sport

[@pastelshades2860]

Lol I've never seen a dog look so bored 😂

[@stephanierodrigues370]

You shouldn't be locking the seatbelt. Do not pull it out entirely that's not how it's been crash tested. Also it would restrict him from needing to do his job if ever needed.

😝first comment

[@angelconrail3221]

I have a question, so I was wondering what you can and can’t do with your chronic illness. What can you eat and can’t eat. I’m just curious because I honestly know no one who has chronic illness, and I would like to know more about your chronic illness please.

[@ChronicallyJaquie]

So I think it is great you want to learn more! But there is not really a "list" I can give you. One thing about chronic illness is that it effects everyone differently and it can vary in how it effects you from day to day, and even hour to hour. Flare ups vs periods of stability, that random off day, doing everything right but things still go wrong, doing everything right and things go very well, etc. I suggest going to my "New Here" playlist for more info though, it is a good place to start! There is a link in the description as well as links to other helpful playlists. :)

[@angelconrail3221]

Chronically Jaquie Thank you very much

[@angelconrail3221]

Chronically Jaquie And I really love your videos

[@skateflipsover]

I read the title as MY DOGS ON MY PERIOD

[@melaniemcaulay9748]

I hope you drown how so??

[@poe7226]

I hope you drown I did too... :I don't come for me lmao

[@trulylavender]

Wait what?! How!?

[@pastelshades2860]

I'm wondering how also

[@Elisabeth208]

You mean your dog is on her period aka in heat? Or have you and your dog synchronized your monthly's

[@Elisabeth208]

Meh

[@rochellenicoletta7353]

I dont like this product....to me, I think comfort is more important for my dog than safety on such a long car ride. She cant see very much and can she scratch herself? Its just too restricting. Its not worth it for me.

[@ChronicallyJaquie]

See I am the opposite, I think Harlow's safety is more important. But thankfully she is still comfortable (I know not every dog would be though, so each owner has to take that into consideration). Har does not move around in the car. Instead she likes to lay down, spread out and sleep. This allows her to do that. She can still sit up if she wants to, but she is not actually the type of dog who likes to look out the window. She is like me, falling asleep as soon as we hit the road lol. We also stop every 2-3 hours to stretch our legs and she always gets a walk, treats, water, etc. So I still feel this was a good option for us personally, but as you pointed out it may not work for every dog. That is why I tried to give as much info as possible. :)

[@WhiTiger]

We LOVE our Sleepy Pod. We travel cross country (2600 miles) twice a year and we take our dog with us. When she was little she fit comfortably in the car. Now that she's bigger she doesn't fit so well in the back seat. We have removed a seat in the van so she has space. We use the seatbelt from the ceiling to the floor and it requires a key to unlock the seatbelt but she has soo much room to move and lay down but it still keeps her safe. The sleepy pod doesn't keep the dog pinned to the seat, or the floor. It gives the dog as much space to move as the seatbelt does for people. If the seatbelt locks into place there is less give and keeps them in place. So as long as it doesn't lock there is quite a bit of range of movement.

[@danielledemchak6392]
