Not sure about a F250 but our Chevy 2500 had a 33/66 split rear seat. The grandson (8yrs) was on the 33 percent single seat and the two 120lb shepards lay on a foam pad with the 66 percent seat folded up. Occasionally a hrumph was heard from one dog or the other but everyone was fine for up to 6 hr trips. We never tried for any longer than that.
With two kids and one dog I guess you would put the kids on the large seat and fold up the smaller seat for the dog.
The dogs mostly lay in a pile but would both sit up and look out the window if some smell caught their attention. The grandson would pet/scratch one or the other if they decided to sit up and a head or ear came within reach.
It was not ideal and the dogs had a lot more room without the grandson but it was doable and aside from some of the smells no one was uncomfortable. The grandson blamed the dogs but who knows.
