I have had hatchback Saabs, 900 or 9000 for many
years. I had three dogs, a Pyr, a very large black lab and a golden mix in
the back with plenty of room for several Pennsylvania to New
Hampshire trips. Now with just Jascha and only local trips, he is
content in the back without putting the back seat down. There is enough
head room if he sits up and enough body room if he lays down even with the
slanted back. My next car will probably be a Saab station wagon because
the 9000 is not available. I have looked at the back area and it will be
spacious for a pyr. I had one briefly as a loaner car when my car was in
for service and it handles wonderfully - it is a good people car too!

Subject: [pyrnet] Pyr cars
I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. Bridger is catching
up on lost sleep after a two day holiday visit from a perky standard poodle
named Monique.
I have a car question for pyr owners. Bridger is an
only-dog so we just need transportation for two people and one pyr. For the
last ten years our pyr-mobiles have been Toyota 4Runners which have been ideal
from the dog-tansport point of view....plenty of space, the back window rolls
down for ventilation, etc. Right now, however, we're considering leaving the
ranks of SUV drivers. One of the cars we're looking at is a Saab station
wagon. I was wondering if any of you have one of these cars and - if so - what
you think about it as a dog car. Perhaps your pyr could contribute a review!
I'd also be interested in any other recommendations from the group (preferably
something other than a van or an SUV).
Thanks and Happy New Year to
all.
Lyn and
Bridger
