Simply remember:  keep the back horizontal to the ground! The spine, the back, when horizontal to the ground is ergonomically safer for the disc. When the spine is in a vertical position, there are damaging compression and forces. The discs bear the major brunt.  The horizontal pet carrier shows the correct principals to protect the IVDD back with the dog’s back in a horizontal to the ground position.
