Dogs are the most loved pets the world over, aren't they? And there's never a moment when dog owners want to leave their sweethearts' behind, be it for weekend drives, vacations, or just a trip around the city. For this reason, most dog lovers in India either prefer cars with larger space such as a hatchback or an SUV. Some sedans have a comfortable interior too that allow owners to take their furry friends along.
For dogs to travel comfortably, the car needs to have ample head and shoulder room, especially in the backseat. There are several car manufacturers in India like Maruti Suzuki, TATA Motors, Hyundai, Kia, Ford, and Toyota, that make spacious vehicles suitable for dogs.
