Washington, Apr 10 : Hollywood actress Sandra Bullock has apparently designed special seat belts for her pet dogs so that they don’t get hurt while riding in the car.

According to her friends, the ‘Speed’ star fears that her pooches, Ruby and Poppy, will be hurt in a collision, after her car was struck by a drunk driver recently.

And that incident, coupled with a plane disaster, which cost her pets a decade ago, has made her strap her dogs up.

"More than 10 years ago, all her dogs died when they rode cargo on an airplane. She was devastated and vowed never to let anything bad happen to her pets again,” Contactmusic quoted a source as telling Star magazine.

"A lot of people think she''s overdoing it, but she doesn''t care. At least she knows her dogs are safe," the source added. (ANI)
