A collaborative study conducted by Subaru and the Center for Pet Safety to test the effectiveness of popular pet harnesses to keep dogs safe during a crash.
The study used dummy dogs that the team believes to be the nation’s first instrumented, weighted and corrected canine prototypes – a 75 pound golden retriever, 45 point border collie and a 25 pound terrier mix. This study was the first of many that will test other travel products like car crates, carriers and barriers.
