Riddle me this: I have the PetBuckles for my 80 and 60 lb dogs. They came with a LATCH strap and a seatbelt D-ring loop. I get that my car's anchors are only 40 lb anchors, so I can't use the LATCh strap connected to those.But my mom's 2007 Sentra should have the SuperLATCH and I could theoretically use those anchors for both of my dogs, right?
Why don't I need the SuperLATCH strap and connector to use the anchors in my mom's car or on the D-ring with my over 48 lb dogs?
And why did the instructions say I could use it to 40 lbs with standard LATCH when it would only be connected to ONE anchor and they are tested using BOTH anchors? I Can I extrapolate that if I can use one to 40, then I can use TWO to 80? Can I connect a car seat LATCH strap between the two anchors, and attach the PB tether to that?
Am I making sense?
They currently ride third row with seatbelt, but if I only have one dog, it would be easier to have them second row outboard. Plus my 60 lb'er steps on the buckle release button and unbuckles herself.
