seat cover for toby
 

i bought newextended cab pick-up.it has those little seats behind your front seats.i am planning on putting my dog back there when we gohunting.

anyone have a way to protect the back of my seats and keep area clean that works.

i saw those hammock covers but dont know if they will work. my dog slobbers a lot when we go hunting.any suggestions would be appricated.sproul

i got a metal bar for between seats at AMAZON to keep him in back.i am getting soft boots for him to put on in truck SO HE DOES NOT SCRATCH IT UP.just throw a blanket on floor.

so, i came up with solution,hope this idea helps others.i am so excited to get this extended cab, no more TOBY in front seat slobbering on me excited to go grouse hunting.now i will get it on back of my head

Get a dog box.

RE: seat cover for toby
 

TOBY WILL NOT GO INTO ANY box OR KENNEL,CAGE ETC.i think the bar between seats will work real good and the 8 dollar velcro boots will protect my seats if he does jump on things with his front feet.

I just cleaned out my truck and came to the realization that it belongs to the dog and I just get to drive her around. The nose prints on the windows and the hair on the seat are her stake and claim:D

those nose prints, i know what you mean.toby SLOBBERS,he gets so crazy to go grouse hunting that he foams at mouth.looks like he has rabies:eek:

i think the boot things for his feet and bar between seats SHOULD work back there.i hope .going to try boot things on his front feet only.i agree,they do take over.;)

i tried the bars between seat, toby is fine back there.i bought the 8 dollar velcro soft boots,they work great also.threw a bedspread on floor to help with dirt etc.

took him for ride today, opened the sliding rear window and he stuck his head out the whole time we were out. this is best set-up i ever had.the truck is CHEVY COLORADO EXTENDED CAB LT2 PACKAGE.;)

I am glad you have something that will work for you my friend.. It can be hard taking the dog out sometimes and you want to keep your vehicle looking nice..;)

phil, this is my 4th new chevy truck.this set-up is just great.he used to it, i took him for little trips around area.no barking, thats great.i have those 8 dollar velcro sock boots on him, they are great but i dont think i even need them on.i have bed cover on floor for dirty feet.sliding window is great, he hangs his head out window,people laugh behind me when they see that head out window.bars between seat are great also.

everything is perfect,i am so happy and great deal on this chevy truck.i got $9,300.00 off the MSRP which was $29,100.00,i paid after tax out door, $19,730.00.they were really giving good deals this month.they had to go 500 miles to find color i wanted.

only problem is dealers are closing or losing their chevy license to sell,so i may have to travel to get it fixed in oct 2010.

but that was best deal i ever got in 40 years ,friends got same thing on full size chevy silverdaos.over 9,000 off sticker.

Sproul,when I had my Springer. I would lay a canvas tarp in the backseat of my Bronco. The tarp would cover the floor and whole backseat. Didn't have to worry about her claws,hair or dirt. But just like Toby,couldn't stop her from slobbering up the windows.

That sure sounds like you got a great deal to me my friend! I hope it holds out for you until you decide to trade it or keep for a good many years whichever ends up being the case. I also like what blkpowder said about the felt as well. That stuff can be thick and washes out fairly easy.. To bad there wasn't away for me to send you some of this mill felt I have cause that stuff is a good 1/4 inch thick and very strong. Made mostly from a matted type of monofilament with fussy fibers on it. Now you two have me thinking about setting my truck up with it for Rusty. Thanks guys..

RE: seat cover for toby
 

you are right.i had little boo boo marks from tobys nose on side windows.i like it there better than on inside of front windshield.so far,this is working real good.now i can put my beretta on front seat ,could not do that before.those soft boots with velcro are great too, i wish i would have had them before.no more mud prints in truck.:D

RE: seat cover for toby
 

Train him to KENNEL. If he refuses to listen to you on this command then my guess is he is refusing to listen to you on other commands. You must ask "who is in charge"?

RE: seat cover for toby
 

randallt, how are you.no, toby listens well for dog.i got him to stop barking in truck,that was bigone, i worked at it a lot.as for kennel,i tried it but i only had plastic kennel box he did not like it one bit.i like him now in truck with me as long as he behaves which he does now.

he likes the colorado ext cab,he has sliding window to look out open ,he likes air.i have a blanket for floor and pull on boots for his feet which keep things clean and his front toenails wont scratch anything.its great,so far.bars between seat he can look at me but cant get to front between bucket seats.

so far, ITS A HOOT with him.:D

Toby
 

toby loves the ext cab area on my colorado.he looks out rear sliding window and does not bark anymore.the cage bars keep him from getting to front seat.big blanket on floor and doggy boots i put on after hunting before he jumps in the truck.my truck is clean and everything is working fine.

nice clean truck every trip.

everything is going great with my new ext cab chevy colorado.toby loves sitting back there and does not bark.with the bed spread on floor i dont even have to use the boots i bought so his feet would not dirty/scratch it up.its working out real good.
