Abstract:

The vehicular animal carrier is a vehicle door-mounted support for an animal, such as a small dog. The vehicular animal carrier includes a platform having a peripheral wall defining a recess adapted for receiving the animal. A rear wall is mounted to a rear end of the platform and projects upwardly therefrom. An upper portion of the rear wall arcuately projects rearwardly therefrom. A planar member projects downwardly from the top edge of the rear wall, forming a hook. The planar member is inserted between the vehicle window and an inner portion of the vehicle door to support the platform above the vehicle seat. A pair of side plates may be releasably mounted to side edges of the platform in order to provide shade for the animal. A pad layer may be placed within the recess for the animal's comfort.
