Answer the call of the open road with your No. 1 canine co-pilot and the Load Up Harness - a crash tested dog harness designed to travel to and from adventures. Built with strength-rated hardware and components, the Load Up Harness has been designed to be easy to put on, comfortable over long hauls, and able to withstand the rigors of a vehicle crash.

The universal seat belt loop attaches to existing seat belts and allows dogs to stand, sit, and sleep as they please while keeping them secure during sudden vehicle movements. The Load Up is easy to put on and adjust, and it can be left on dogs for quick bathroom breaks and rest stops.

    Works with stainless steel braided wire cable

    My husky got hopelessly entangled in the seat belt when the seatbelt went through harness loop. Instead of using the seatbelt, we are using Mighty Paws' stainless steel braided wire cable through the harness loop. The cable attaches to the latch bar. No more tangling. Works perfectly. The harness is great quality, I like the buckles.

    Great harness, thank you

    Another well thought out product from Ruffware. My dog isn't a fan because it's doing its intended purpose. Thank you for the piece of mind.

    Great purchase!

    Received a couple of days after ordering which was impressive. After watching video, very easy to size to fit dogs. Heavy duty material but dogs both tolerated it well from the start. Dogs able to move around - sit or lay down comfortably when seat belt fastened. I feel good knowing that the dogs are safely buckled in especially since the harnesses have been safety tested.
