Trucks are perfect for transporting a considerable amount of different cargo, but for pet owners, the most valuable load they carry is your dog. To make the ride as comfortable and easy as possible for them, and to make cleanup as easy as possible for you, you should have a few extra truck accessories around for your furry friends. Here are several of the top options to consider.

What Truck Accessories Should You Get if you Have a Dog?

1. Floor Mats

Your dog’s paws can track excess mud, dirt, and water into your truck, and some dogs even leave behind a significant amount of hair. Floor mats protect the interior of your vehicle as your pets get in and out, which prevents complicated messes as well as permanent stains.

2. Pet Barrier

If your dog always tries to jump up into the front seat as you drive, it can be a significant distraction for you and a safety hazard for them. Keep them safe and comfortable in the backseat with a simple barrier that prevents them from accessing the front.

3. Seat Covers

Most dogs love sitting on the backseat of a truck and gazing out the window throughout the ride. A quality seat cover will protect that area from getting covered in dog hair and mud. It may also protect the seats from getting ripped if your dog’s claws are sharp or jagged.

4. Ramps or Steps

Trucks are reasonably tall and challenging for dogs to jump into safely. Especially for those with smaller dogs, ramps or steps will help them safely and quickly get in and out. However, even those with larger dogs may sometimes find these products useful, especially after veterinary procedures or as the dog ages.
