Choosing The Right Dog Cage For Your Car

The idea of putting your dog into a cage may seem like a rather harsh idea however when it comes to travelling, it is definitely the best option for pet owners. There are numerous benefits to purchasing a dog cage for your beloved four legged friend and now just for your dog. You as a driver, your car and even your passengers will all be able to enjoy a stress free journey thanks to these must have cages. If you are yet to be convinced, here are just some of the reasons you should treat your dog to its very own travelling space.

A dog crate is typically created using metal, wire or plastic and designed to keep dogs safe for security or transportation. Once you purchase a cage it is important that your dog is trained to use it, this space will become their refuge as they travel to new places therefore it must be comfortable. Although one of the main reasons why people purchase dog creates is to help during car journeys, they are also ideal for use in the home especially when toilet training or giving your pet somewhere to stay when visitors come to the house.

There are plenty of different variations of dog crates ensuring that pet owners can choose the right match for their pet. Solid plastic creates are typically the most secure however as they are rigid they tend to take up a lot of space. Steel crates that have been crash tested are perfect for hatchbacks and SUVs and have specially designed crumble zones that absorb the impact of an accident. These steel cages are very heavy therefore not advised to be used in the house! Those looking for a lightweight cage will love the variety of aluminium crates available, aluminium will not rust and is extremely light, making it the ideal choice for home and car use. Choose from solid walls or wire cages depending on how comfortable your pet feels in the dark, it is recommended that your dog can see out of the cage, just to give it a sense of stability.

With so many designs to choose from, it is easy to find the perfect match for your pooch. Why risk an anxiety ridden trip to visit friends or family this year when you can place them safe and sound in their own special den. Add a dog cage to your vehicle today!
