I’m pretty sure this is the crate I have. It’s been a great purchase, has survived a lot years of rough use. It has thousands of miles bolted to the bed floor of my pick ups over the years & still works like it’s new It also came with a cover for the door, which it looks like they charge extra for now. I also insulated it with rigid foam & plywood to keep Maggie from eating the foam. It’s pretty expensive, though.

Thank you for providing the link. That version of it is actually less expensive than the Gunner kennels I've looked at, and I believe it's about the same price as the Lucky kennels.

With as much as my wife and I went through to get our dog, I couldn’t bring myself to put her in anything less, anytime we are going for a ride somewhere. It’s safety aspects that sold me on getting her a Gunner.

Salish I would give Ruffland kennels a look, as many have suggested. All the serious hunters out west I know who run serious bird dogs have had Ruffland kennels. They're strong, light when you need to take it in and out of the truck/car, and don't break the bank when compared to some of these other crates. If you're looking for a good jack of all trades definitely consider Ruffland.
Just need an English setter and a good pair of boots

Thanks. This is probably the kennel I'm going to go with.

I have a gunner1 large that hasn’t been used more than 3 times for sale for $500. My loss is someone’s gain.
