Attach the safety tether to your dog's harness and adjust it so it is short enough to keep your dog secure and safe inside the trailer. Always use the safety tether and zip the rear door closed before starting a ride. Introduce the experience gradually, offering praise and treats to help your dog adjust to riding together.
