Evie and Sailor weigh 106 pounds between them. This is how they, and a few other big dogs, got room to stretch out.
The back seat of a car is a bench and a gap. One big dog fills the bench. Put two big dogs back there and one of them ends up on top of the other.
We’ve used a soft dog hammock for years but for our two Labrador Retrievers, it was always a bit tight. They would be half on top of each other and didn’t seem content.
The usual fix is a soft hammock. It catches the hair. What it does not do, owners tell us, is hold its shape over the gap:
The previous sling we had was falling apart, but the main problem was the sagging, making it unstable footing for our two doggies, both getting in and traveling.
Bryan S. drives a 2024 Jeep Gladiator. Evie weighs 48 pounds and Sailor 58. This is how Bryan describes the back seat now:
Evie (48 lbs) and Sailor (58 lbs) now have SO much more room in the back seat, and they're both incredibly comfortable.
They can stretch out, move around, and relax without the seat sagging beneath them.
And on the fit:
The dimensions were absolutely spot on for our 2024 Jeep Gladiator, and the fit couldn't have been better.
The difference is underneath. Instead of a sling hanging over the footwell, this seat cover has a hard base that bridges it.
The hard bottom bridges the gap between the back seat and the front seats, so your dogs ride on one flat floor instead of a sling.
They help reduce shifting on your seats, so your dogs have a steadier spot to ride.
Protects against scratches, accidents, car sickness, dog hair, muddy paws and slobber.
The hammock shape keeps messes inside, and the front mesh window lets air through so your dogs can breathe and see.
It comes included, to help limit roaming when it is clipped to a body harness.
Large fits most standard cars and SUVs. Extra-Large fits bigger trucks. Both are for bench-style back seats.
What it looks like
Megan S. drives 16-hour-plus hauls in a Tacoma with two big dogs, 55 and 65 pounds. Her bigger boy is not a fan of long drives, and she knows why:
My bigger boy is not usually a fan of long drives, mostly due to not being able to stretch out
With the hard base under him:
the extra space and stability is a game changer for him, and he is actually excited to get back in the truck after some long hours on the road!
Megan's own clip is in the customer videos further down this page.
Paul D.'s dog Oz is almost 15 and has weak hind legs. In the soft slings they used for years, Oz's leg would get pinned in the dip between the seats. With the hard base:
The hard bottom sling from K9 is the best one we've ever bought. This no longer happens. Oz is much more comfortable in car rides!

“This one, extends from the rear back rest all the way to the back of the front seat, giving her another 5 inches of seating space.”
Jerrold S. Verified buyer“He would never lie down. He would just stand and pant for the entire trip. But with the K9 hard bottom dog seat & surrounding sides he finally calmed down, laid down and relaxed on our trip to our cabin.”
Ronald B. Verified buyer
“We tested them out traveling 2,000 miles with Tucker loving his space in the seat cover and enjoying the additional air from the fans.”
Patricia M. Verified buyer“I no longer hear my dogs sliding around or getting stuck in the folds.”
Susan S. Verified buyer“Now with my hard backseat cover I ordered from K-9 he has even footing and I worry a lot less about him in the back seat.”

Customer videos
Eleven clips filmed by the people who bought it, in the back seats they actually drive.
Why it works
The bench ends, the footwell drops, and a soft hammock sags right where your dog wants to stand. The Team K9® cover rides on a hard bottom, so the whole back seat becomes one steady floor.
Hard bottom: the floor holds flat, even when they stand.
“She doesn’t stumble around in it like the other one when we are driving.” Michael H., verified buyer, on switching from a soft bottom hammock

“We tried the XL but it was a bit too big for my truck. Team K9 exchanged it for the large and it works great. They were great to work with and the exchange was easy.” Pamela K., verified buyer
If your back seat is a bench, almost certainly. Large fits sedans, 4-door coupes, SUVs, crossovers, hatchbacks, minivans, vans, station wagons and Jeeps. Extra-Large is made for extended cab, crew cab and full-size pickups, light to heavy duty. For captain's chairs or bucket seats, the Single Seat Cover is the better match.
The hard bottom is rated to support up to 250 pounds. Customers ride with 100 lb shepherds and Rottweilers, and with packs of smaller dogs side by side.
Clip the straps around the front and rear headrests, tuck the seat anchors into the seat crease, and zip the side flaps. It installs in under a minute.
Hose it off, wipe it down with a cloth, shake it out, or machine wash it, then let it air dry.
Yes. Seat belt openings give you access to the buckles, and the free safety belt clips to your dog's body harness to help limit roaming. Use it with a properly fitted body harness, not a collar.
Most U.S. orders arrive in 3 to 8 business days after processing, and tracking is sent when your gear ships. Shipping is free on this cover.
If your dog rides twice a year on dry pavement, a cheap hammock may be enough. If they ride weekly, shed, get muddy, or you drive a truck or SUV with a real footwell gap, a fabric sling can sag and wear out fast. The hard bottom is made for the dog who rides every week.
Choose the cover if protecting the car is the whole job. Choose Cover + Bed if your dog rides often, naps in the back row, or needs a softer layer on top of the hard bottom.
Yes. It is one flat platform from door to door, rated to support up to 250 pounds in total. Customers ride with two and three dogs side by side. One safety belt is included, so add an extra belt for a second dog.
No. The included belt helps limit roaming when it is clipped to a properly fitted body harness. Do not clip it to a collar. It is not crash-rated and does not replace crash-tested restraint gear.
