Seat Belt Warning Bell/Buzzer RANT!!!!
There are 2 types according to the AKC. Less then 13" and between 13" and 15". Though they get bigger then that, mine is about 14". If you saw the beagle that won at the Westminster dog show, mine girl is about the same size. If you want to see overweight check this out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Beagle_745.jpg
Not only is it overweight it looks like it hates its life..poor thing.
I disabled mine since my gym bag/laptop will set it off and of course when passengers take there sweet time putting it on or anxious taking it off before the car is parked. It sounds like a time bomb about to go off...

Yeah, I wonder about that! I went on an AKC dog walk to help in dog cancer research, and I have a 16 pound Cairn Terrier....They had people there with overweight dogs in strollers no walking! I was thinking...THATS WHY THEY ARE OVERWEIGHT! The owners were like, oh she doesnt like to walk(what dog doesnt like a walk?)...There was a 30 pound Cairn in a stroller and it was so sad...the dog weighed twice what it was supposed to, and the owner just smiled about pushing it around everywhere....
Cat? IMO, cats to me would be more likely to claw the seats and ruin the leather.

hahahahhha that beagle looks ridiculous! sorta like how my pomeranian was after someone fed him avocadoes for a month.
but yeah, back to the seat belt alarm. so glad you can disable it, otherwise i woulda tore the car apart to find the chime and destroyed it.

Back to topic...
I keep a print-out of the instructions to disable this seatbelt noise in the owners manual sleeve in the glovebox.
I have actually pretty much memorized it. I have had to do it numerous times because of the dash work and other work I have had done on the car when the battery had to be disabled.

I did the override but it only seemed to take for the drivers side, is it supposed to work for both the passenger and driver seats? Maybe I'll just try it again. I kept the printout in my glove box too.
I hate the thing because when I let someone out of the car so I can go find a parking space it will beep for about 10 seconds until it decides that there is no one sitting in the car. annoying.

I have a blanket i tuck under the head rest and drape over the seat, and I crack the window enough my dog can put her paws on the glass and her head out the window without risking scratching the outside paint. After about 5 mins she just sits on the seat anyways. I don't take her everywhere, mostly 5-10 mins down the road to the park a couple times a week.

And just so I don't leave everyone depressed this time, here's my not overweight beagle when she was a puppy. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jgarrido/525757208/
