Does anyone else make similar boxes ie plastic sided travel boxes?
Just changed cars to a freelander 2 and would like to keep it clean?!
I have 3 border terriers and would like one not too tall as to obscure the rearview .
I think the db1 maybe the one i wathink they are with the money over a cheap wire cage which i t and I've been looking for a second hand one but they seem rare.
Is there anyone else making similar and do you think they're worth the money?
Thanks

Had 2 Lintrans and they are worth every penny we paid for them. Both were custom made though rather than the standard models.

There is another company making them, they make ferret/terrier boxes and can do bigger ones - http://www.dogtran.co.uk

Pricey but excellent quality. Worth looking for second-hand, and think website do trade ins :-)

My worry would be what would happen in an accident if the box is plastic? We were involved in an accident on the M6 years ago, the estate car was written off but the Guardsman cage containing 2 Boxers was still secure. In 20 odd years showing dogs we never have and never would use anything but Guardsman.

My worry about these boxes is simply that they don't look as if they get enough air flow through. I've always used dog guards and tailgate guards but if I had to use cages they would be mesh ones for maximum air supply.

Have a look on Ebay & Amazon there are a good range of new & used crates and cages on there, that will fit most vehicles.

LOVE Linton worth every penny. I find the dogs stay very cool in the box, more so than the car with the bargo cage can't explain why but that is my experience.
