it seems to vary a lot from dog guards etc, but I have 3 dogs, we have like a strap type thing it hooks onto dogs collar and other end goes into seat belt slot, think you can get them at most pet shops. must add that they are not allowed in front seats, but have seen plenty that do it.

Thanks for that but we have a small motor home which has three forward facing seats so hoping this will be acceptable with the law
