Hi Dog Lover - Welcome to Crash Safe Dog

We understand—keeping your dog safe in the car shouldn’t be so complicated. Yet for years, pet owners have faced the same struggles: harnesses that break under pressure due to poor materials or designs, and systems so complicated that threading seatbelts feels like solving a puzzle.

At Crash Safe Dog, we believe your dog’s safety is non-negotiable. That’s why we make all our harnesses here in Canada, using the highest-quality materials and a design that’s as simple as it is effective. With just two buckles to clip in, your dog is secure, and your mind is at ease.

The Real Dangers of the Open Road

An unrestrained dog in a car is more than just a distraction—it’s a safety risk for both your pet and everyone in the vehicle. Even a sudden stop can send an unrestrained dog forward with enough force to cause serious injury. And in the event of a crash, the risks multiply.

Our harnesses have been tested to the same rigorous standards as child car seats, providing a level of safety that ordinary dog restraints simply can’t match. When your dog wears a Crash Safe Dog harness, you can trust that they’re protected to the highest standard.

Designed with Your Dog in Mind

What makes Crash Safe Dog different? Everything.

• Ease of Use: Just two clips, and you’re ready to go.
• Thoughtful Design: Lightweight yet strong, with components tailored to each size of harness for a perfect balance of comfort and durability.
• Versatility: Designed for both in-car safety and everyday wear.
• Customizable Options: Because we make every harness ourselves, you can choose options that fit your dog perfectly.
• Adjustability: Grows with your dog, making it a long-term investment in their safety.

We don’t just make harnesses—we create peace of mind for pet owners everywhere.

Real Stories, Real Impact

For Amanda, a certified service dog trainer, Crash Safe Dog wasn’t just a product—it was a lifesaver:

*"I had to slam on my brakes using another brand's harness, and my dog ended up hitting the back of the seat. It was clear she didn’t have an appropriate harness. If she becomes seriously injured or worse, it means that I could die or lose my beloved companion.

When I found Optimus Gear, I decided to try their harness. One day, someone almost merged into me on the highway, and I had to slam on my brakes. Thanks to the Optimus Gear harness, my dog stayed secure, avoiding injury, and I was able to regain control. This harness saved my dog and me. It’s a small price to pay compared to vet bills, the life of my dog, or a lifetime disability."*

Amanda’s story is one of many, showing how our harnesses are built not just for safety but for life-saving moments.

Why We Started

Crash Safe Dog began nine years ago, inspired by a personal moment that changed everything. Our dog, Nala, hit the dash hard and it was a wake-up call—we realized the products on the market weren’t enough. So, we set out to create something better: a harness that pet owners could trust to protect their dogs and keep their families safe.

We’re proud to share that mission with you, and we invite you to join us in making every ride safer. Because your dog isn’t just a passenger—they’re family, and family deserves the very best.
