Dog car seat “Travel Deluxe” – Flannel Exclusive

There are dogs who love car rides. And then there are the others: those who pant, tremble, and shrink into themselves because the back seat is slippery and the curves unpredictable. The "Flannel Exclusive" is designed for both – but especially for the latter. High, thickly padded walls envelop your dog like a cave: he feels secure on the curves, can see you, smells his own cushion – and eventually, what you've been waiting for happens: he curls up and falls asleep. The fear of car rides transforms into a favorite spot that just happens to be on the move.

The "Flannel Exclusive" is the leather model for those who prefer a little extra warmth on the inside. Its exterior features embossed vegan leather with a fine diamond pattern – elegant to look at, easy to wipe clean, and paw prints a thing of the past. Inside, instead of a smooth fabric, you'll find flannel: that softly brushed, slightly textured material you know from the best winter shirts, which feels warm in autumn and winter without being musty. Exactly the difference a dog appreciates when burying itself in it on chilly mornings. When you arrive at your destination, you carry the seat by its straps like a bag into the hotel – and your dog will find a bed that smells like them. Familiar territory, no matter where you are.

Will your dog fit inside?

A sense of security arises when the den is the right size: snug enough to lean against, wide enough to turn around in. Measure him when he's curled up or lying on his side, from nose to rear end – this is the measurement he needs for his lying area, plus a few centimeters of extra space. If you're between two sizes, choose the larger one: he should be able to turn around and relax, not have to fit inside. And observe how your dog lies: a curled-up dog needs less space than your measuring tape indicates, a stretched-out one needs more – for him, the unfolded side is what counts. Slide-out-Length. And dachshunds are longer than their weight would suggest: For long breeds, it's the lying length that matters, not the scale.

Each seat is handmade, dimensions may vary slightly; the soft walls give way.

From seat to sofa

Two zippers on the sides, and the front panel folds flat forward: your dog climbs in by himself, and at the destination, the seat transforms into a long sofa on which he can stretch out without leaving his spot. We call it Slide-out – he probably calls it his own.

So he is firmly in the car

A car seat is only stable when it doesn't move. That's why the "Flannel Exclusive" has three ways to securely attach to the back of the seat in your car – you only need one, no tools required:

1. With the seatbelt: Large tab at the back – pull the seatbelt through and lock it in place.
2. About the backrest: lower outer rings – stretch the supplied strap over the backrest.
3. About the headrest: 2 fastening rings – hook the strap and guide it over the headrest.

A safety note: If you're using the dog seat in the front passenger seat, deactivate the passenger airbag – a deploying airbag is dangerous for a dog in that seat. This isn't necessary in the back seat.

Completely removable, washable at 30°C

Sand, fur, wet paws – it's all fine. Open the zipper at the bottom, remove the cushion, put the cover in the washing machine: 30°C, in a laundry bag, do not tumble dry. That's all there is to it.

All dimensions at a glance

Each seat is handmade; dimensions may vary slightly.

Another tip from experience: Place one of our Cover Inside. After a few nights on the sofa, it carries his scent – ​​and transforms the new seat into familiar territory. It's also softer to lie on.
