Here's some exciting news for dog-loving Element owners:  A new Honda pet accommodation system will be available soon!  It consists of a soft-sided kennel in the cargo area, a cushioned pet bed, a soft floor that Honda says is easier on paws, a 12V ventilation fan, an extendable ramp that stows underneath the bed, and a spill-resistant water bowl. Cosmetic additions include a dog pattern design for the second-row seat covers, all-season floor mats bearing a toy bone pattern, and "Dog Friendly" exterior emblems.  There are also special 2nd row and cargo area pet restraint systems. According to Honda, not only does the restraint protect the dog in the event of a crash, it also protects vehicle occupants from making contact with the dog in such an event.  If you are interested in receiving more information on the system as it becomes available to us, please email guynish@islandhonda.com. We'll woof back at you soon!
