Check here for Dog Helmets...!
We tried them out but they didn't work with my dogs' ears!

They're darling.

How do they like that little back window. It's like it's made for them, a little doggie window to see where they've been.

My little dog loves the back window, but unfortunately he leaves nose prints all over the glass.

Ahhh, I love mini schnauzers! My baby is black and white, but yours match your car color, how cool is that? My schnauzer is 4 years old, and way too smart for his own good! I suffered through two years of chew-tality!

Hi DjEZ,

Very cute! The hatch does seem to work very well for pets, though I don't currently have a dog to ride around with me.

Although here in Toronto is not as hot as some more southern locales, I would be wary of taking the dogs in the hatch though the hot "dog days" (pun intended) of summer. I would think that sun could get kinda hot magnified by the rear window, with a relatively small space for air circulation above the rear seat...?

As rare as Prius remain in Toronto (especially non-silver, but getting better), if you see a Seaside Blue driving across the 401, it's probably me, so don't forget to wave!

I got my Prius mainly got my dog too (pug/chihuahua mix). Though, I'm dissapointed he's already learned to jump over the back seat and try to get to the front of the car to sit in my lap. Need to break him out of that habit, any feedback on that woudl be awesome

Safest is to either crate him and put him in the back or get a harness that attaches to the seat belt (there are several different ones available).

I have to admit, though, that I don't do this with our dogs. But we make them go back to the back seat. The little one (mutant Min Pin mix) is quite persistent about trying to work his way up to a least make contact with the passenger while riding.

Just want to share photo of my two kids, and why I bought the Prius vs. the Civic Hybrid. also added a pic of my bike.(same gas consumption(almost))

Its been a week and my average consumption is 5.5L/100km for about 500kms.

Is there any mod that will beep the horn to confirm that you locked the car(mine doesn't come with the alarm system). without getting a security alarm system. One thing i find difficult wth my car is to close the hatch and not realizing this could leave my car open in a public parking lot. Also which Pet barrier will fit inside?

Im loving my car and its nice to have a net-community for it. Good day to all

Maybe it's just me, but I can't see how they'll be able to work the controls on either vehicle...
