I love my dog more that I love any of my cars. A car is just an object, a dog is a real friend. If I have to chose between the two, the dog will always win. And if anybody objects to my dog riding in my car, he or she can walk or ride a bus.

 

I don't have to worry about shedding.... Poodles and Schnauzers are both hypoallergenic breeds.

 

I am sure that was quite the sight to see this giant dog scrambling for cover.

 

Thanks for the link G.

Our dogs can't go anywhere in the back of the SD. Daddy in drivers seat, son in middle, me in passenger seat, and Grandma on the small side rear seat. The dogs get the large side of the back seat (folded up, of course, with comforters on top of the fold out metal "flooring"). You want a funny picture............... the few times we tried to have the Rott in the bed, the big storms would be looming just ahead. We would have to stop, bring the 130lb Rott (our last one) in through the sliding rear window, since we had so much stuff in the bed (held back by a load lock). I can imagine the picture with the Rott half in and half out (Rott butt hanging out sliding window).

Too bad I never got pics of it. We were always in too big of a hurry to get him in before it dumped.

 

My dog is quite well behaved, and for the most part he will stay in the same spot without worry.

 

Clever solution from Volvo

 

You can tell who are dog people, and who are not.

 

Animals belong in the bed of a truck!

 

Dogs love trucks!

 

What I would give to have a Rottweiler's shedding issues again.

My dad used to complain when he'd find our old Rottweiler's hair...

Meet your worst nightmare, dad.

I brush him daily. We vacuum several times a week. Somehow, we still find clumps of Akita hair everywhere.

Seriously, I've stopped wearing black. Kid you not.

Good looking dog, I have no doubt he is well worth the frustration....and it makes for a good story or two down the road anyway.

If I ran that idea by my wife we better be discussing a billy goat, because she might suggest putting me back there instead were I talking about one of her 'babies'.

Luckily for me and her, we're both on the same page on this.

 

For us, it really isn't the Rott hair that is the issue. It is my Mothers Aussie/Springer Spaniel mix that is. Oh my that dog sheds.

The hair rollers are useless. The vacuum is useless. We end up with a lot of hair back there, because we have to have the dogs in the cab with us. Whenever we are going camping, Monsoon storms pop up out of nowhere. We are not going to leave them in the bed in the rain. Plus, my Moms dog is her baby, and she would be a wreck with her back there. Even when going to our fishing spot, we won't put them in the bed. They would step on the fishing poles. LOL

They need to make Catch-all Under Seat Carpet mats. LOL

Germeezy, you can put in a link like hunchman did.

 

There is a product that is available that is basically for all intents, and purposes a electrostatic rubber comb that works excellent. Luckily my Husky days are behind me an my current floor sweeper dog has far less hair to disperse inside the car.

LOL............... oh geez. As dog enthusiasts, I understand. The horror is trying to get the dog hair out of the carpet in the back seat of the Superduty. Nothing works. You literally end up picking the hairs out one by one. I did learn to appreciate my Catch-All mats (in factory Ford carpet color), as they clean up very easily.

Ode de wet dog.

 

I know what you mean. I bought a set of weathertech floor mats for my rig and it turned out to be a good move. http://www.weathertech.com/

We've done the sticky roller brushes(turns out the sticky side of duck tape works better) and there are idiots that claim the "rubber comb" works ( I think those are the same people that use spray on hair).


and yes ode de wet dog

 

Nuttin like a car full of dog hair and dog slobber that smells like ass

 

the smell is so bad you have to stop and rip the thing out.

The dog's anus or the back seat?

 

I wish they would quit using marketing catch phrases so rampantly especially when it is debatable if anyone including those under the employ of Lincoln have an earthly clue as to what makes a Lincoln a Lincoln.

 

They're trying to present Lincolns as cars you covet and protect. The execution was weak but I understand what they attempted to do.

 

You haven't lived until your girlfriend's dog get diahorrea all over your car's back seat
and the smell is so bad you have to stop and rip the thing out.

 

I dumped one of the hottest women I ever went out with because she let her hairy ass dog sleep in the bed with her so I can relate. As much as I love dogs they are still dogs. Put some towels down in the back seat and let him sit back there, IF you keep him clean.

 

I like it.... At least, it's better than the last batch of ads.

 

My wife hated the first commercial.

 

I personally have never been there, and our dog typically rides in certain more dog hair friendly vehicles.

 

So, the moral of the story is, when you buy a Lincoln you're not man enough to tell your significant other that you don't want their dog in your car, so you just drive off?

"Lincoln... If you're one of the growing number of castrated American males and have a lot of money, we're the car for you..."

 

Heh... we've all been there.

 

LOL.

Oddly enough, I thought this commercial as how Ford may have at one point in time felt about Lincoln. True or not, it made me laugh again.



Speak for yourself. My little babyboii puppy is a good 90lb 26" Akita with hair that goes EVERYWHERE and a tendency to poop and pee himself when he gets nervous... and he gets nervous whenever he gets in any car.

I've braved the journey with him to the vet and the groomer in my S5.

Fear nothing.

"Lincoln: buy one of our cars, ya selfish *******"

 

I wouldn't put my dog in the MKZ, even he knows it's a tarted up Fusion!
