In March 2020, Kurgo’s XLarge Impact Dog Harness was tested at Calspan’s Buffalo, NY crash test facility and passed the laboratory test procedure for pet safety harness restraint systems. The test procedure was developed at the test facility that maintains the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 213 for Child Restraint Systems and conducts all of the car seat performance tests for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The test procedure adapts FMVSS 213’s strict safety standards that are designed to protect children and makes them applicable to dogs. Kurgo’s harnesses passed the standards two criteria, which are: remain within the applicable excursion limits 32 in. for dogs up to 50 lbs. and 36 in. for dogs over 51 lbs., and maintain their structural integrity postcrash.
