Bushwhacker Deluxe 50" Wide Dog Barrier for Cars, SUVs, Trucks, and CUVs – Pet Restraint Backseat Divider | Mesh Net Screen Shield Behind Front or Rear Seats Cargo Area – Ideal for Travel Safety

Very good quality, metal frame, sturdy. Easy to assemble. Mesh is heavy duty, but has good visibility. Straps are reinforced with metal parts. Used in 2025 Honda HR-V and fits like a glove. Sturdy enough to safely contain my 120lb labrador.

After a friend was killed in a car accident, I began looking for ways to secure our dogs in the car. Her dog had ridden on the seat next to her for 15 years. He fell off and pinned her foot down on the accelerator. She struck a parked semi trailer at a high rate of speed.I bought halters but the dogs got tangled. Carriers took up all the room and left no space for our luggage. I tried a couple of smaller barriers but they jumped over them. Wire ones looked like they belonged in a police car. This one fits perfectly, blocks them from the front seat and is always in place without being intrusive. It went together in moments and the only issue I had was my own mistake of making the strap too complicated and clumsy. Just thread it from the bottom straight through and the teeth will hold it where you want it. Because the back seat is almost always down I just tucked it behind the seat and secured it to the headrests. It’s not going anywhere and neither are the dogs.

Really like this barrier. We can still see clearly through rear window and it's very effective in keeping our two dogs confined to the rear. But be sure to measure your interior width and height carefully, and adjust for the rear seat headrests (if you have them) and how high the armrests sit on rear doors. In addition, the straps the fasten to the front headrest posts have no "give or stretch," therefore if the two front seats are in vastly different positions (large husband and small wife), the barrier may struggle to stay in proper position. I have this problem myself. When wife drives she moves the seat WAY up, which puts a lot of stress on the straps and moves the barrier into an odd position until i put seat back to my setting. I added 6' length of 2" gray foam pipe wrap (Home Depot) to warp around and cushion the top and sides of the frame to provide additional protection of the interior roof.

Purchased the 50” size for my 2025 Hyundai Sante Fe hybrid, calligraphy model.I secured it to the two captains chairs, with the third row folded down. The top straps secure to the metal part of the headrests, the bottom straps around the seats, low on the seat. It fits perfectly and looks pleasant, not harsh, and doesn’t rattle!The 50” fits perfectly with just enough room on either side and top. The 56” would be too big for this car.Quality mesh material and lightweight, but sturdy (titanium?) rods feel like they will hold up well. Glad to have the dogs quarantined off the leather seats.I searched for a lot of solutions for this car/trim combo and am very happy with it! Hoping this review helps!

I just got this yesterday and installed it today.- Initial Impressions -It seems very well made. Putting it together was no trouble. I have a pilot and it's practically a perfect fit - very little space on the sides, definitely not big enough for my boxer. The visibility as a driver seems great - you can barely notice it there. I haven't actually tried my dog in there yet. He's been used to riding in the middle so this might be an adjustment.- Notes -I looked at A LOT of options before picking this one. It was one of the most expensive but with what you get for fit and quality, I think it's worth it.I don't plan to keep this up unless I'm using it. It seems like it won't be too much of a hassle to put in and take out. If there was anything I'd suggest to the manufacturer, it would be making the system easier to fold down. You're supposed to tighten the screws to lock it in place but I think I'm going to try not doing that so I can fold it easier without tools. It would be awesome if it had locking hinges or something along those lines so you could easily store it.An even better idea - it would be amazing if you could fold the top half down when you don't need it. Then you could leave it in place and still pass things from the front to the back.

I needed a cargo barrier to keep my airedales from wanting to move forward in my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I hope to also keep most of the dog hair from flying forward by installing a barrier with mesh instead of piping. Because the material fits so tightly, it takes a bit of understanding and working to stretch the material to install the metal framing, but this is so worth the 15 minute effort. The barrier installs with straps to the headrests and the cargo tie downs. It also appears to be easily installed behind the rear seats OR the front seats, in case I want the dogs to have twice the room. On the back seats there is very little gap between the upper corners to the vehicle, and no gap to the sides and the ceiling (using the 50 inch model). After the first install, which took about 5 minutes, installation and removal from my Jeep takes less than 2 minutes. This also keeps my dogs from drooling over or licking the tops of my leather seats. Price seems reasonable for the quality, design, and function, of this barrier.

Item is GREAT and just what I always wanted. I wanted something like this for years. I do not have a dog; I have a pickup truck and before had a SVU. I sell items for a living, and when I fill the backseat with merchandise, it can fly forward into me when I'm driving. I thought of the metal barriers that they have in cargo vans and wanted something similar for my SUV. I found out about this item in a forum about restraining dogs and thought this might be the item for me. It does exactly what I wanted it to do, and customer support was outstanding with my questions. Now I feel safer when transporting merchandise and do not have to worry about things flying into me.
