The Ruffwear Load Up Harness is a fully featured dog car harness that provides outstanding protection for your dog with the comfortable fit of a quality Ruffwear harness. Pop it on your dog, thread the seat belt through the loop on your dog's back and you're ready to go!

Built with strength-rated hardware and components, the Ruffwear Load Up Harness has been successfully tested to withstand the rigours of a vehicle crash test.

How is the Load Up Harness different from other dog vehicle restraint harnesses?

In observing sled crash test videos of other restraint harnesses where the seatbelt attachment points are high on the dog’s back, dogs tend to flip off the seat with their back legs swinging forward. Ruffwear have taken a different approach with the attachment point low on the base to prevent this flipping. 

Load Up Harness Features

  • Strength-rated hardware & high-quality webbing combine for a strong, secure vehicle restraint
  • Easy to put on and adjust 
  • Constructed with padding and can be worn comfortably for pit stops
  • Universal seatbelt loop attaches to any existing seatbelt
  • Low seatbelt attachment point (at the base of your dog’s back) allows dogs to stand, sit or sleep as they please
  • Low attachment point also keeps your dog from flipping off the seat in the case of a crash
  • Fully Crash tested (See below)

What's new in the Load Up Harness release 2023 ?

Forged Anodized Aluminum 6061 slide buckles were added for strength-rated reliability and easy on/off. The shell material also got an upgrade, both from a durability standpoint and to fall in line visually with the rest of Ruffwear's gear designed for life on the go in the Journey Collection.

Read the results of the Crash Testing here!

The canine restraint was dynamically tested under the conditions outlined in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 Child Restraint Systems (FMVSS 213). The canine restraint was installed on the canine crash test mannequin per the manufacturer’s (Ruffwear) instructions and then secured to the test bench restraint system. FMVSS 213 employs a standard bench seat that represents the rear seating environment of an automobile. The seat bench and add on restraint was then subjected to the 30 mph generic frontal crash pulse detailed in FMVSS 213.

MGA Research performed three separate dynamic tests of the Load Up™ Harness with 25-pound, 45-pound, and 75-pound dog-mannequins.

In all three of Ruffwear’s dynamic sled (crash) tests of the Load Up™ Harness, the dog mannequin remained in an upright position and on the seat.
