Pet barrier options?

[DanF.]

My wife and I just had our 1st child on July 4th, and as mostly clueless new parents with a dog we want to put up a pet barrier so our newborn won't get run over when the dog sees a squirrel out of the window.

 

What do you guys recommend?

 

Amazon.com has a ton of options, but I'd like some actual feedback.

 

Thanks.

Ended up ordering this pet barrier from smile.amazon.com

 

Petego K9 Guard Universal Pet Safety Barrier

I'll post up some pics and a preliminary review once I get it in the back of the truck.

 

Just realized it was $44.00 yesterday, and $29.99 today. Online with their CS to see if I can get a small refund.

I build this protector/cusion for the rear side... Moka loves it... And I do not need pet barrier

I like what you did there. We have a rear-facing carseat for our newborn positioned on the middle of the rear seat, and don't want our dog, or any other potential object hitting her in the event of a rapid braking maneuver.

Good thinking. My dad had one in his '01 but I don't remember the brand. It was a different design, looked like somebody chopped up a shopping cart, and most of what I remember is trying to get it to quit rattling! Looks like the one you ordered should do better with that.
