Product Details:

Dakota 283 brings yet another solid kennel to the game with their new line of G3 framed door crates. Each one is created using the rotational molding process and from high grade Polyethylene, which forms a single-shell product that will flex slightly, but resist surface abrasions and extreme impacts. It is the same process used to make military-strength cargo containers and heavy-duty fuel cells, so you can rest assured it will protect and keep your dog safe. 

The deep, wide interiors are enough to hold nearly any size dog (or other similar sized animals). The G3 kennels are dimensioned to maximize the rear interior of most trucks, SUVs and hatchbacks (that are 48 inches wide or more) sitting side-by-side. If your pet has an “accident,” the plastic is easily rinsed and the small, rear-facing holes allow for easy drainage. There’s plenty of air circulation with 16 holes in the Medium size and 20 holes for the large and up. Thanks to the double-hinged door, access is never a problem. The door can swing from right or left and can be completely removed with ease from the outside.

On the top you’ll find a large grip-handle that makes lifting and maneuvering the G3s a snap. The walls are tough and rugged, able to absorb impacts while the corners remain virtually impervious to crushing, cracking and other damage. These crates can also be stacked to save room in indoor areas with a separately sold stacking kit. This is ideal if space is limited and dogs are plenty.

The G3 Medium glides more easily across surfaces. This is ideal if you don’t require the crate to be raised and prefer the sliding action. By running straps through the top handle hole, the G3s can be locked in for a permanant stay in the back of virtually any vehicle.
