I use this with her regular harness. She is too short to see out the window that's why I got her the booster seat.

ETA: The seat is strapped down with a seat belt and there is a leash thing that goes from her harness to the seatbelt.

Thanks for the info. Dixie is 43 lbs., so she is not tiny. Is the harness that straps to the seat belt harmful to dogs? Will she be uncomfortable? We usually put her in the back seat without a belt on and she lays down on a towel. I am concerned about stopping short in the car.

Yes, we have. It was easy to use and she still have room to get up and move around to adjust her position. My sisters dog died in a car accident, so I'd take the extra step.

Yup I actually just started using one for Tyson, he would bark, scream and cry in a bag or his car seat in the car so I figured I'd try it and he loves it. He lays down and just hangs out all strapped into the harness which clips into the seatbelt...

Here is the one he has:

Yes, Bama is ALWAYS in a harness when he's in the car. I wouldn't put a child in the car without a seatbelt on, and Bama is like our child Chat Icon

I have a bucket for the little ones, and a harness for Loki. Fascinus does not really need it as he plops himself on the floor of the car. For some reason he is scared to death of sitting on the seat. Chat Icon

We use these restraints from ChampK-9.com

We have fairly large dogs and found that the ones sold in stores and elsewhere were just poorly made.
