Thankfully, this family is one of the 16% of dog owners who drive with their pet in a restraint. One dog owner shares his experience involving a collision with a tractor trailer. His Collapsible Impact Dog Crate may be responsible for saving his dog's life.

"Last weekend we had an unfortunate experience that put my Impact Dog Crate to the ultimate test. The pictures show what happens when a 7,000 lb truck and 80,000 tractor trailer collide. I (@minermutt ) was asleep in my crate, secured in the back passenger side of the cab when the collision happened."

 

"As you can see, the truck is most likely beyond repair; however, while obviously distorted and damaged, my crate remains intact, and most importantly, it did its job!!! Had I not been confined in a high quality crate this would be a very different post! Thanks to a seatbelt and an Impact Dog Crate, biped and I were able to limp away and will hopefully make a full recovery. I hope this post will inspire others to rethink how they travel with their pets because this happens in a flash and a dog riding shotgun or hanging its head out the window doesn’t have a chance." - @minermutt
