This started with a dog and a car.
Floki rides in the back. Every time I braked, he'd slide forward into the gap behind the front seats and have to scramble back up. On a long drive he never settled — he'd stand the whole way, bracing against corners. The back of my seats got scratched. The doors got worse.
So I bought one of the hammock covers everyone sells. It made no difference, because a hammock is just fabric stretched over the same gap. Put a full-grown dog on it and it sags straight to the floor. The hole was still there. Now it just had fabric in it.
What actually fixes it is a rigid floor — something that fills the footwell so there's nowhere to slide into. He can lie down flat instead of standing. That's where Blackfell started. We've since added a non-slip mat to give dogs a little more grip and comfort on the ride.
We're small
We're a small team with two products and a focus on making car rides better for dogs and their people. We keep the range small so we can know what we sell and help you choose what fits.
If it doesn't work for you, say so
Thirty days, any reason. If it doesn't fit your car, your dog won't settle on it, or you've changed your mind, get in touch. We'll refund you, and if we need it returned, we'll arrange and pay for the return shipping.
Questions about fit, your car, or your dog — hello@blackfellco.com. You'll hear from one of us, usually within one business day.
