Dog cover for the back?

Does anyone here know of any cargo covers that might fit our coupes well? I'm planning on taking my dog along for short trips to the beach and was wondering if anyone's already found a solution for this. She's about 25-30lbs, so not small enough for the skybox booster seat thing but not too big to fit in the back.

Anyone have experience with quilted cargo cover from amazon?

My Jack Russell is a lean and mean 25 lbs, he doesn't like being in the back of the coupe.

My answer for my 50 lb herding dog is a yoga mat. Protects the seat, door, and if you fit it correctly the center section as well. And provides much better traction for my dog than the seat itself. I use a harness and then attach the harness to the seatbelt. I also deactivate the air bag which is on the passenger-side a pillar.

The Skybox works just fine for the 15 pound Jack Russell but not the larger dog.

Sorry no pics of the set-up but here's one of Bodie.

Anyways, ended up getting that cover. Waaay bigger than necessary, but it did the job.

Also, I guess it depends on the dog, but Penny seems quite happy to be back there looking out the hatch window on windy mountain drives
