Just wondering what size people use for two minis. I have a large boot and want to use a crate in one half that they can both be comfortable in, but doesn't waste too much space.
Kate - what size did you get from Safedog and do the dogs like it?

Re: Car Crate
Following post...I too need to start thinking of car travel for 2. Lolah at the mo is in I think a 24" crate which is more than adequate for her and takes up half the boot leaving the rest for shopping and bags etc. I have 4x4 so a large boot but it is full on a daily basis so reluctant to get a huge crate when boot is used sooo much!!!
All because of Lolah!

Re: Car Crate
Do they need a crate each or do you think they would be happy to share if space adequate?

Re: Car Crate
I have the Safedog single extra large hatchback. In my Clio it was at the minimum setting and two schnauzers fitted perfectly. I have changed cars and it is now fully extended……it has room for at least two more!!!!

Re: Car Crate
Shame not to fill it then!it has room for at least two more!!!!
Both my two go in a small crate together at the moment for short journeys, but not a long term solution.

Re: Car Crate
I used a separate crate twice and then decided to try them together and they were fine.squidgy100 wrote:Do they need a crate each or do you think they would be happy to share if space adequate?
.............except for one time when I was on dual carriageway with nowhere to stop and it sounded like they were killing each other!
When I did stop and look there wasn't any blood and they just looked at me as if to say what! I think it was a fight over space ;)
