I no longer use a leash to keep my puppy in the cart. I was holding her by the leash and had to swerve, and she fell out, and I almost ran over her. Fortunately, I was able to let go of the lease quick enough but I still dragged her a couple feet & could have run over her. Fortunately, she was OK..
Then I started thinking what if I got hit or tipped over and she was tied down in the car? Went into a pond? Whether it was a tether , harness or not, she could get hurt. I do hold her collar if we go around and take turns to get off the bridge etc.. But it is something to consider, but do what’s best for you. Also, my puppy is 70 pounds.
