Dog-Friendly SUVs: Why the VW Atlas or Audi Q7 is Perfect for Seneca Lake Adventures

If you live in Waterloo, Geneva, or anywhere along the Finger Lakes, you know that a "weekend getaway" usually includes the four-legged members of the family. Heading to Seneca Lake for a hike or a day on the water requires a vehicle that balances luxury with rugged practicality.

The Volkswagen Atlas: Maximum Space for Big Breeds

The VW Atlas is a favorite for dog owners who don't want to compromise on space. With its massive cargo area and low load floor, it is incredibly easy for older dogs to hop into the back. The three-zone climate control ensures that even if your pup is in the way-back, they stay cool during hot NY summers.

• Class-leading cargo space: Perfect for crates and travel gear.
• Durable V-Tex Leatherette: Holds up against claws and is easy to clean.
• Panoramic Sunroof: Great for airflow and extra light for your pet.

The Audi Q7: Luxury Meets Adventure

For those who want to explore the Seneca Lake wine trail in style, the Audi Q7 offers a premium experience without sacrificing utility. Its legendary Quattro All-Wheel Drive ensures you can navigate slippery boat launches or snowy trailheads with ease.

• Power-Folding Third Row: Drop the seats with a button to create an instant dog den.
• Adaptive Air Suspension: Can lower the vehicle height, making it easier for smaller or senior dogs to enter.
• Premium Sound Insulation: Keeps the cabin quiet to help soothe anxious travelers.
