Crash tested dog crates

[joop]

I'm looking to buy a crash tested dog crate for my discovery 1. The safedog look very sturdy compared to some of the other brands. Has anyone got any recommendations?
Also they don't look very high head height. I have a German shepherd all bit it quite a small one and a collie.
They will need to have a divider.
Many thanks.

I've just had a safedog crate and love it. Chatting to the guy who fitted it though they don't like to block the rear view so they aren't great height wise but he did say the size they recommended vs what your dog willl actually fit in is very different. I should have had a large for my whippet based on her height but she fit in a medium easily.

Trans K9 are superb

I have a double Trans K9 for two GSDs and I love it! Not cheap but definitely worth the money and they hold their value really well too.

Yes, I have the B9.

I have taken the divider out of mine as only my younger GSD tends to travel in it, and I prefer him to have as much space as possible. For a smallish GSD and a collie though it would be idea.

You choose your crate depending on your vehicle though and I see they have two sizes for a Discovery like yours ...

The team are really helpful so if you ring or send an email asking which size would be best for your needs I am sure they will be more than happy to help.

There is also a good FB page 'dog cages, crates or transport boxes' which has lots of second hand transk9 on. I had B21 in an xtrail

We used KingPin to fit the crates in our cars when we lived in the UK. I still have my kingpin crates. EXCELLENT!
