Sleepypod Earns FiveStar CrashTest Rating for its Clickit Sport Harness

Sleepypod’s Clickit Sport dog safety harness has earned a five-star crash-test
rating—the highest possible rating—by the Center for Pet Safety (CPS) in
its Harness Certification Program. The rating spans three size categories: small, medium and large.
The CPS Harness Certification is the first formal crash-test rating system for pet travel harnesses, and manufacturers voluntarily participate in the program.

Testing and evaluation methods by CPS to determine harness safety included measurement of canine excursion, hardware/webbing migration, and hardware/stitching integrity. The test protocol, which is a result of the 2013 Harness Crashworthiness Study conducted by Center for Pet Safety, outlines a consistent test methodology and evaluation program to ensure pet safety harness restraints offer crash protection.

“Clickit Sport is packed with state of the art technology that is the result of a dedicated and intensive engineering effort by Sleepypod’s design team to keep larger pets safe when traveling in
cars,” says Michael Leung, Sleepypod co-founder and lead product designer. “The Center for Pet Safety awarded Five Star Rating to Clickit Sport is a meaningful validation of Sleepypod’s steadfast commitment to pet travel safety innovation.” -
