It&#8217;s essentially a collapsible ramp and pup tent (couldn&#8217;t resist) with tethers that keeps dogs secure in back while protecting the interior of your vehicle from stains and pet hair.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve shown you this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/10\/13\/ruffing-it-honda-confirms-canine-friendly-element-to-nuzzle-int\/\">Dog Friendly setup<\/a> before, but couldn&#8217;t resist snapping a few pics of the system in action, especially now that it&#8217;s available. The Dog Friendly package is available on any 2010 Honda Element model for an extra $995. besides the nylon kennel and ramp, the system includes a cushioned bed, a spill-proof water dish, a small 12-volt ventilation fan, seat covers for the second row, and rubber floor mats with a bone motif. Seems like a reasonable price for keeping one&#8217;s pets safe and secure, especially considering it&#8217;s a custom fit package from the people who actually build the vehicle itself. There&#8217;s a full press release after the jump and some more pics of Toby and Luna in our high-res gallery below. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/la-2009-dog-friendly-honda-element\/low\/\">LA 2009: Dog Friendly Honda Element<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/la-2009-dog-friendly-honda-element\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/hondaelementcanine---1_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/la-2009-dog-friendly-honda-element\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/hondaelementcanine---2_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/la-2009-dog-friendly-honda-element\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/hondaelementcanine---3_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/la-2009-dog-friendly-honda-element\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/hondaelementcanine---4_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/la-2009-dog-friendly-honda-element\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/hondaelementcanine---5_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n[Source: Honda]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/03\/2010-honda-element-dog-friendly-los-angeles-2009\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>LA 2009: Luna and Toby model the 2010 Honda Element Dog Friendly package<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/03\/2010-honda-element-dog-friendly-los-angeles-2009\/\">LA 2009: Luna and Toby model the 2010 Honda Element Dog Friendly package<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Thu, 03 Dec 2009 20:58:00 EST.
