Dog inside plastic portable carrier mounted to SUV driving on highway

Dog inside plastic portable carrier mounted to SUV driving on highway.

No way I would do something so dumb and put my dog at risk at 80 miles per hour.

Obstructed license plate. Pull over and ticket.

Must be from South Dakota.

Seem to recall Mitt Romney did something similar, except the dog was strapped to the roof(?). Mitt’s dog didn’t make it. Some people are a unique brand of heartless and stupid…

 

[eljefino]

I remember when dogs used to ride in pickup beds... and liked it. My biggest concern would be exhaust fumes, provided the weather is temperate. There should be a better way for the people inside to sense if the dog's in duress as well.

Animal cruelty

That driver should be shot

 

[Bud_One]

That driver should be shot

Or stuck in the carrier and driven around for a while...

 

[Dave Hess]

I was hoping the carrier would be empty when I saw this idiot a few car lengths in front of me.

I don't understand why the short wheelbase tahoe, non xl yukon, and non esv escalade exist. They and all other large swb suv's are completely worthless compared to lwb counterparts. That kennel would easily fit back there along with the cooler.

By the dog.

 

[fdcg27]

We always had the dog inside with us, and he was a non-trivial 120 lbs Great Pyrenees. Luggage went on the roof rack.
Can't imagine putting a dog in an external carrier like this guy.
Jerk or sadist? You decide.

I grew up with a giant German sheperd. If you dropped the tailgate on dad's pickup the dog got in. He wasn't getting out until he went for a ride. If it happened that we weren't going anywhere we pretty much had to drive down the road a little then back to get him out.

In reality the dog in the carrier is likely no worse than in the hunting dog carriers in the back of a truck.

I still don't like it.

 

[alarmguy]

Insane, don’t forget the exhaust gases come up around the back of the car as the car moves.
Someone else in here has said it best. The guy should be caught and strapped down to the back of the car. Driven around and forced to inhale all that healthy air.

And the story was that when they got to their destination, they let the dog out of the carrier and it ran away.

A pickup bed ride is safer than this.
If the car gets bumped from behind even a little the dog is dead.
Our animals ride with us.

Remember this?

If I too was punished by having to be owned by that two faced snake I'd also hightail it to the hills and never look back the second I get my chance.

 

[dbias]

That is some sick stuff right there. Bella does not approve

 

[KGMtech]

I wonder if the dog was subject to carbon monoxide poisoning? remember the station wagons and the rear seating with that rear window down?
