Default How strong are these latches in the cargo area?

Hi all,

I've got a 2013 Impreza sport premium hatchback.

How strong are the latches in the attached picture of the cargo area? They're the upside-down U-shaped latches along the floor a few inches behind the rear seats.

I want to connect a wire-coated metal cable between the two latches so I can connect my dog's seatbelt to it to give him a little bit of room to move (like a mini dog run of sorts). Right now I attach it to one of the LATCH system latches on the back of rear seat but it does somewhat tether him to it.

He's not a super aggressive dog, and he's only 45-50 lbs so he's not a huge dog. I just don't want him to tear the latches out if they're only meant for lightweight use.

Thanks!

What are they connected to? Are they bolted into some kind of metal, or are they screwed into some plastic? If it's metal I'm sure they'll be fine.
