Used, Pet-Approved, and Ready for the Road (and the Fur)
You love your dog — but you probably don’t love the idea of financing a brand-new SUV just so they can ride in the backseat like a muddy little prince. We get it. That’s why the used inventory at Dover Dodge Route 15 is full of pre-owned vehicles that made Nielsen Editorial’s list of best vehicles for pets in NJ.
Looking for a spacious SUV that doesn’t cost more than your first apartment in Morristown? We’ve got used Chevy Traverses, Ford Explorers, and Jeep Grand Cherokees with fold-flat seats, rear vents, and enough cargo room for a crate, a cooler, and that golden retriever who refuses to ride quietly but insists on full window access.
More of a daily commuter with a small dog in a carrier and big opinions? Sniff out a gently-used Hyundai Elantra, Nissan Sentra, or Kia K4 — perfect for quick vet runs, errands, and those “we’re going to the dog park because you’ve been staring at me for three hours” kind of drives. Fuel-efficient, easy to park, and calm enough that your pup might even nap through a Route 46 red light marathon.
We’ve also got minivans like the Chrysler Pacifica, ideal for households juggling two kids, three dogs, folding chairs, and a suspicious amount of juice boxes. Some trims even come with the built-in vacuum, so you can handle that mysterious back-row fur tumbleweed before it gains sentience. Let’s be real — if your family travels like a small tornado, the Pacifica’s your storm shelter.
Your next pet-friendly vehicle doesn’t have to be shiny, new, or smell like a lavender candle. It just needs to be roomy, reliable, and ready to handle whatever your four-legged tornado throws at it — literally.
Swing by the Dover Dodge Route 15 Used Car Center and discover the right ride for you and your muddy little monarch. No judgment if they try to ride shotgun — we’ve seen worse.
