Doggone crazy
If you've been reading this blog for a while, you know that we're cRaZy! about our dog Bogie. As a matter of fact, one of the reasons why we got our Airstream was because we don't like leaving the boy behind when we travel.
As it turns out, an automaker's marketing department has realized that there are a lot of dog nuts out there. And it also turns out that it wasn't an American automaker that decided to throw dog owners a bone -- it's those darn innovative folks over at Honda.
With detailed measurements and suggestions for how best to share the ride with Rex, Honda appears to be taking this market -- and the marketing -- quite seriously.
According to Autoblog, the Japanese company even offers a special dog-version of their Vamos minivan for the domestic market -- no luck for you and your hound Stateside, I'm afraid.
The photo gallery even offers suggestions on where to stash Fido's favorite chew toys.
As if we needed yet another reason to like Honda.
Bogie gives this one four paws.
