Need incentive for keeping your car's interior as spot-free as it is dog-friendly and dog-safe? After the engine, the interior is the most second important consideration when trying to re-sell the vehicle. Here are some tips for protecting the car interior from your traveling dog.  

Install a backseat car barrier to prevent dogs - especially large breeds - from barreling up to the front, where they can distract the chauffeur. Turn the cargo area into an inviting doggie den with a cushy travel dog bed.

Provide water with a dog travel bowl designed to eliminate spillage, so after your road trip, you won't find the interior spotted with stains composed of water and slobber.  

Does your dog love to romp through mud? Bring along convenient paw wipes so your car interior won't be paw-printed. If your dog passenger is big into water sports, be ready to dry off his coat with a quick-dry dog towel before he re-enters the car.

If, at any point on your journey, anything else should happen to stain the interior, whether liquid or solid, arm yourself by bringing along a handy bottle of  pet stain and odor extractor plus a few rolls of absorbent paper towels. And if you think you might cross paths with a skunk on your trip, be prepared with an effective deodorizing skunk shampoo to beat the stink, so it won't foul up the car interior.
