LArge Dogs and a Discovery
strapping young lad:
we had a st bernard and a springer in the back of mine, both could turn around fine
i have seen two alsatians in the back of a cherokee before and that is smaller than the discovery so you will be fine.
although its quite amusing to think you are relying on your vehicle's purchase based on carrying dogs.. its what the roof rack is for!
Jimbo:
My Springer lives on the back seat of the Disco, due to the large amount of 'kit' that I carry for work. The seats are protected by waterproof covers, the dog sits on a huge lump of 'vet bed' material, and wears a full body harness that attaches to the middle 3-point seat belt (I don't want 18kgs of Springer belting me round the ears when I stamp on the anchors !!!)
I've got a mate at work who drives a Mk3 Chavalier - and he has both his 'Aussies' (Australian Shepherd dogs) in the car most days.........

Paul.K/LuckyTrucker:
Hi there, I use to have a Fiesta and our German Sheperd bitch love it. There was plenty of room for her to lie down and if she wanted to sit up you would just see her head and neck over the rear seat. so not to much room if you had to brake hard, so therefor she didn't fall over. Dogs don't need too much room and if on a long journey then I am sure that you and they would stretch your legs.
