Do you have local distribution or can it be collapsed for shipping? What about costs and options? Please don't just join to post as an advertisement or we will be forced to remove it.

Pork, I would be worried about aluminum dog boxes for guys like you that live in the frozen North. I think it would be hard to keep your dogs warm after a wet or snowy hunt. Even here we have cold rain that would worry me.......Bob

The box I run is a Four season Owens and the dogs never get cold (as long as you have the vents in) fully insulated makes a big difference even in the heat of summer.

I run an enclosed SUV Durango. I would still worry by the time the SUV get up to temp and the heat gets back to the dog. The damage could well have been done by then. I run those Vari-Kennels plastic, and I don't really like them. I have a lot of blankets/padding in there for Tony. He banks them up on the sides for comfort hot or cold..........Bob.

I live in Ontario Canada,we make our boxes out of plywood with vents that can be closed and fill them with straw.When we go to Iows to hunt we put a heavy blanket or two over the top of the box-leaving the front opehn for ventilation.The box is a 2 dog box and it is in the back of a pick-up with a topper on it,have never had a problem with the dogs being cold

I've got some friends that have aluminum kennels like Hillbilly and they are fully insulated. I didn't know if this guy was just advertising or looking to be a part of our community. Since he hasn't responded, I guess we have our answer.

Yup come and see if I can sell a few is the thinking. They never think to answering a few questions may sell a few more......Bob

If you were hunting in the desert that box would look good in the truck but I got to have one for all seasons. I really like mine the vents pull out and you can open the hole thing up or close it up in cold weather fully insulated. I'm not trying to sell them I just like the box.
