Hi peops,

We've recently aquired a Greyhound, and I'm struggling to make him 'fit' in the Corrado, was just wondering if any of you had managed get a big dog into one?

Main issue is that the rear screen is too low in the boot to get him in there, however he does seem to be able to get into the rear seats if their folded down (to high a step from the sill to the folded down seat, and the roof's too low for him to jump in)..


I could get him into the front passenger seat, but suspect its probably not a good idea if he tries to turn around or such like while I'm driving, so I'm open to suggestions...?

Car is a VR6 with rear armrest (if there was no armrest I'd consider him just lying across the back seats).

Dog is a 5yr old ex racing greyhound, 34kg, 30"length back, shoulders circa 25-27" high

Anyway, open to suggestions thoughts as I'm going to be really hacked off if I don't find a way of getting him in there (ie I'll need to get a dog friendly car- probably at the expense of one my existing ones frown!)

I had a similar problem
6 month old Rhodiesian Ridgeback - 35kgs - wouldnt really fit in the r32's boot

Had to chop the car for a estate - i was lucky in that i could get a RS6 avant .

Just going to have to bite the bullet and get something bigger .

But do you do many miles with dog in car ?
