Does Texas Require Dogs To Be Harnessed in the Car?

No. There is no law in Texas that requires a dog to wear a seat belt or be restrained during transportation. However, Texas disorderly conduct laws state that it is illegal to transport or confine an animal in a cruel manner.

Regardless of state law, we recommend that all dog-owners take steps to ensure their pet’s safety when in a moving vehicle. It’s best to keep dogs restrained and out of the front seat. Dogs who insist on climbing into the front seat should be placed in the back, in a crate. If your dog’s crate doesn’t fit in the car, you should invest in a barrier to keep them out of the front seat.
