Big dog in the coupe

Has anyone ever fit a moderately big sized dog in their coupe? I am askin cause I'm adopting a Boxer this weekend, and wonder if he will ever be able to fit, whether it be the front seat or the rear?

put him in the back but make sure you put a blanket back there, cause his naisl will scratch the leather.

I have a 90 lb. german shepherd that rode in my coupe a couple of times. I had a blanket on the passenger seat. Half of the time she had her azz on the seat and front legs on the floor. She was still tall enough to look out the window/windshield.

lol same here..i wouldnt do it unless it was an emergency! even then id spend an adequate amount of time carefully placing blankets in the car to make sure the dog doesnt do any damage!

Post pictures of your Boxer. I love Boxers. My parents have their second one now and he's more "my dog" than theirs.

i have two whippets, both 35 pounds, they fit great in the back - plenty of room to spare. the leather is great and you wont have to worry about scratching.

I have an 80lb boxer

I recently changed out my coupe for a sedan and can tell you first hand a big dog and the cope are not a good match. Sampson would not fit in the back because of the interuption in the back seat. My dog was not happy in the front seat.

Good luck...nothing better than a boxer. My 3rd!
