Do you put dogs in your cars?

JPK89 · 12-20-2011, 07:41 AM

i have a e92 and i really want to get a bigger dog like a pit bull or maybe another weimaraner...which range from 55-75lbs...do you guys put dogs in your cars?

how do i put one in without messing up my seats and what not...if i cant figure it out..im getting a yorkie lol..

Cski1 · 12-20-2011, 07:49 AM

Dog equals dust and dirt. The amount of hair, or size of dog has some impact on the amount of dirt, but over time (unless you have an interior detail done once a week) that dust and hair will work its way into everything.

Of course, occasional dog travel is fine, put down a big blanket in the back seat.

I picked up my 2011 e90 on Friday. My dog isn't allowed in for at least until the newness wears off

Honestly I love my dog but she has the tendency to dig on surfaces and I would hate to be forced to kill my dog if she scratched my leather so to simply answer your question.... NO

MakkkD · 12-20-2011, 07:53 AM

BTW the dog I'm talking about is a bitch dog (Shitzu?), but it really just comes down to the dog becuz if she didnt dig I would let her in as shes a small little shit anyways. A bigger dog that sheds and stuff, prolly not so much

Yes, we put our little greyhounds in our vehicles, an e90 sedan and M-B E350 sedan. The greys only weigh 80 and 90 pounds, respectively. Four doors really ease ingress and egress for our pups. We have car seat covers and I provided a representative link of what is available:

You might want to search the internet, which is a very good source of information. LOL

We have two yorkies and they ride in the car all the time. They used to slide around in the back but we got a seat cover and harnesses and they like it much better. They won't scratch the trim, seats either. Got the BMW cover btw.

Potty_Pants · 12-20-2011, 08:38 AM

not anymore, kids and other stuff...

used to have my chihuahua ride all the time.

though big dogs tend to = ton of hair, scratched or ripped seats & slobber.
kinda like my xgirlfriend.

ppp

Only once. When I had to rush her to the vet. Wrapped her in a towel and she laid on the passenger seat. Other than that she's not allowed in the car.

dcat151 · 12-20-2011, 08:45 AM

I have a dog, but she always travels in my wife's car. I won't let her ride in the BMW.

Pinarello Rider · 12-20-2011, 09:01 AM

That's not a nice insinuation about fellow BMW owners wives...

RIP.

BEAR-AvHistory · 12-20-2011, 09:25 AM

Not as a regular thing but don’t go moving cars around to avoid it. Two Old English Sheep Dogs 90 & 110lbs.

anerbe · 12-20-2011, 09:32 AM

With the wife allergic to animal fur, our miniature poodle does fine in the car (does not shed).

With larger dogs, an E92 might be asking for trouble - the hopping over the front seat to squeeze in the rear, i'm sure a few marks will appear on the door sill, side of the front seat over time.

Hey bro, I got this.

BD SM3RF · 12-20-2011, 09:33 AM

No dogs in the car. I don't even like the kids in the car if I can avoid it

Of course one of the dogs is a Great Dane and she would not even fit in the car. Either way that is what the '06 MDX is for... Hauling kid and dogs around.

aww.. Im such an animal lover. Although I dont let them ride in the bmw, (always put them in the truck) I'd be devastated if they passed away.

Will335i · 12-20-2011, 10:23 AM

I haven't yet but I probably would. My husky means more to me than my car. He is family the car can be replaced.

darebornsolja · 12-20-2011, 10:26 AM

I just put my dogs in the car, max at one time 3. Two welsh corgi's, and a chihuahua. I do occasionally pick up my old Rottweiler to take out to the park. I just figure I enjoy my car, there are occasional scratch marks here and there but I enjoy the dogs more. I have an e92 as well.

ES_TRADER · 12-20-2011, 10:55 AM

Yea, sure, why not?

Sometimes they roll like THIS:
