Dog crate needed quick

Featured Replies

Just in case anybody is looking for this in future - I have a Yeti Greenline, and I also have two labrador/cocker spaniel puppies about a year old, so I wanted as big a crate as I could get. After a lot of searching and measuring, I found a Savic dog crate that fits without having to do anything to the rear seats, fits pretty closely widthways, and also comes up to a reasonable height - seems higher than most dog crates I looked at. I've got the variable boot floor and the cage fits both with the floor in and out, with plenty of height to spare, if you fit it with the variable boot floor in, the top of the cage comes up about half way up the windows, so they get a view.... but as there is plenty of height to spare, I think it would fit with any of the standard boot floor arrangements, spare wheel etc. The crate door is raised a few inches off the ground, so even in the lower boot floor option, it's still above the lip of the boot. Website below gives you the dimensions in a PDF, but I think I bought it in the UK from Dog Kennels World. There are two types, one called the 'mobile' and the other called the 'mobile wide' and two size versions in each - the one that takes advantage of all of the boot without requiring alterations is the Dog Residence Mobile Wide 91cm.

It also folds down quite easily when it's in the car but it uses up about half the boot when folded. Thought about liners and grilles and mats, but these two have eaten half my house already... anybody wants me to post a pic of what it looks like I'll try to oblige.

Hi all,

I just fold a seat down and use a bit of old karrimat to protect the carpet. Of course i do use a dog harness and seat belt adapter then.

This means the sprog and pebbles the dog can keep each other company :-)

As predicted the medium sized crate here

fits inside the yeti boot perfectly.

I originally bought it for the qashqai and kept it in storage as it didnt fit the small boot of the juke.
