Just because we’re tooling around on two wheels doesn’t mean we have to leave our beloved four-legged best friend behind. Here at Rockstar Puppy Boutique, we specialize in all things unique for pets and this also includes some awesome accessories for motoring with our canines.
While we’re all accustomed to seeing dogs riding in cars, we’re noticing an increase in these furry fellows hopping on board motorcycles when traveling the open road. With that in mind, consider some of these options to keep them safer on the highway:
Helmet Laws
Although humans are required by law to wear helmets when riding motorcycles on city streets, highways and byways, there’s currently no legislation in place for canines to have caps when accompanying their masters. But that doesn’t mean they can’t sport a mean helmet along with their owner. Here at Rockstar, we have dozens of styles, from the ordinary to the extraordinary.
From your basic black, to a radical mohawk option, we’ve got your dog covered (literally) with these selections. For the girls on the go, we also have some more feminine choices when it comes to protecting their heads from harm.
Classic Eyewear
Those of us seasoned riders know about the dangers of getting struck by insects and other debris when we’re on the open road and we also want to protect our dogs from the many dangers that can come from eye trauma. Whether you’re looking for some cool wayfarer shades for your pet or some more protective “doggles” for your animal, we’ve got you covered.
When it comes to style with these accessories, you can opt for the skull dog goggle option or perhaps a leopard print option will better suit your pet. For the ladies, we have a pink zebra pattern available, a gorgeous lilac flowered style and a optic pink choice available.
Carrier Comfort
While many dogs are easily trained or happily available to ride on the tank or sit on the rear passenger seat of a bike, this isn’t the safest option when traveling on two wheels. Thankfully there’s many carrier options when it comes to toting our dog along for the ride on a motorcycle.
You can choose a backpack that can double as a rear or front facing accessory or give them their own riding space with a rear-mounted custom carrier complete with a windshield that will have them riding in style. For safety conscious motorist, there are also options that more closely resemble dog crates or totes that will keep them completely confined when riding. Other choices offer an opening for your dog to check out the open road when riding.
Accident Assurance
One of the best reasons to consider a carrier for your pet when traveling is the peace of mind knowing they’re much safer inside these confines. If the unthinkable does occur and you’re involved in an accident, your precious pooch is better protected inside these devices. There’s also two other considerations to weigh when thinking about making this important purchase.
First, if you’re unresponsive follow this type of tragedy, emergency personnel will be able to quickly corral your pet and keep them from additional harm that can come from the second possibility. Left unrestrained, your dog could become the victim of a second accident from a passing motorist.
From a safety standpoint and a pure sense of style, consider some of these options for your four-legged best friend when traveling with them via motorcycle. You’ll feel better and your pet will be better protected on the open road.
