dunno specifically. maybe some kind of strap at the rear of the front seat rails with a carabiner/D ring on it???

maybe some ideas in existing posts could be adapted.

here's one of several previous posts from a search on 'dog crate'

Quick connect a large dog crate in a 21 Outback

I own a large dog crate for my soon to be 80 pound Labrador. I will be driving with the dog in a 21 Outback cross country. I will take the crate into hotels each night. I have bungee cords that work, but I wonder if anyone on the forum has designed any other quick connect/ disconnect system to...

Would strapping the unit to the headrest posts of the folded rear seats help?

 

Agree w/ @1 Lucky Texan; go to the seat mounts of the front seats at the passenger footwells. Loop a tiedown strap through and that will be very strong. Another solid anchor is where the front seatbelts attach at the base of the B pillar but it is more offset than the seat anchors.

 

Tie two ropes to the infant seat anchor points, drop the seat down flat, wrap the ropes up to the top around the sides, then use these to anchor the crate.

 

I jut put a dog blanket in my back seat or cargo area

 

Solid option, but our solution is for a car filled with camping gear. The crate will be surrounded by bins, coolers, etc.

 

not a good idea to do that, why are you unable to let the dog sit in the rear or front seats? (they do make dog seat belt adapters).

 

Why isn't it a good idea to use a crash tested dog crate? Ruff Land crates are used by professional dog handlers, hunters, veterinarians and dog owners for years.

We're going the crate route as my dog is a high anxiety pup in the car, won't settle during drives. She tugs constantly towards the front with traditional harness and seat belt setups. Our trainer and vet both recommend a crate to limit the pups visibility and keep her still and calm. This also protects her from other stacked gear in the car for camping.

 

simple the dog is in the crate having stuff piled up all around it... dogs have a need to be near their owners and have you ever considered the dog might get car sick causing the issue? My late dog did not particularly care for car rides but as long as she was able to keep her eyes on me while sitting in the front seat, she was fine

 

Cheapest, easiest, fastest and still secure way is to wrap a rope around the kennel and the folded part of the back seat. The kennel has the handles on top so you can run the rope through that for more security. Hopefully it will be heavy enough to prevent the seat from lifting. If not, you can just get more rope and tie to the lower front seat brackets.

A crate is a good idea. I've heard too many stories of car accidents and dogs freaking out after then running off because they were not secure.
