If your puppy is still growing, keep in mind that the Travel Bed is recommended for small to medium-sized dogs up to approximately 16kg. As your puppy grows, check that they still have enough room to sit, lie down and turn around comfortably.

We also recommend introducing the Hound Lounge at home before your first journey, allowing your puppy to explore it and become familiar with it in a calm environment.

The Hound Lounge is designed to help make car journeys more secure and comfortable for your dog. Each Travel Bed includes a safety tether that attaches to your dog's harness, helping to reduce movement while you're on the road.

For your dog's safety, we recommend:

• Always
  attaching the safety tether to a well-fitting harness or collar.
• Ensuring
  the Travel Bed is installed correctly using your vehicle's seat belt.
• Following
  all installation and usage instructions before every journey.

While the Hound Lounge is designed to help keep your dog more secure during travel, no pet travel product can guarantee protection in the event of an accident. Always drive carefully and follow the latest road safety guidance when travelling with your pet.

When the Hound Lounge is installed correctly and the included safety tether is attached to a well-fitting harness or collar, it helps reduce your dog's movement around the car and can discourage them from jumping into the front seats.

However, every dog is different, and no pet travel product can guarantee that a dog won't move or attempt to jump during a journey. For the best results, always ensure the bed is fitted securely, the tether is adjusted correctly, and your dog is comfortably settled before setting off.

The Hound Lounge is designed to stay securely in place during your dog's journey when installed correctly. The Travel Bed can be secured using your vehicle's seat belt, helping to reduce movement while your dog travels.

For the best fit and stability, we recommend:

• Ensuring the seat belt is properly fastened around the Travel Bed.
• Checking that the bed is positioned securely before every journey.
• Using the included safety tether with your dog's harness for added security.

As every vehicle seat is different, the level of movement may vary depending on the shape and material of your car seats. Taking a moment to fit the Hound Lounge correctly will help provide your dog with a more comfortable and stable travelling space.

With the Hound Lounge, your dog can enjoy a cosy dog travel bed that's ideal for everyday car journeys, holidays and adventures.

Yes, two small dogs may be able to share the Hound Lounge, depending on their combined size, weight and how they prefer to travel.

The Hound Lounge Travel Bed is designed for small to medium-sized dogs up to approximately 16kg. We recommend making sure both dogs have enough space to sit, lie down and relax comfortably during the journey.

For added security when travelling with two dogs, we recommend using one safety tether per dog. You can purchase an additional safety tether separately, allowing each dog to be securely attached to their own well-fitting harness.

For the safest and most comfortable journey:

• Check that both dogs are suitable for the size of the Hound Lounge.

• Storing it indoors if your vehicle is exposed to prolonged periods of extreme heat, cold or damp weather.
• Checking that it's securely fitted before each journey.

Important: Never leave your dog unattended in a parked car, particularly during warm weather, as temperatures inside a vehicle can rise quickly and become dangerous.
