Title: Whats a good crate cover??
Post by: Shoffy on August 06, 2012, 11:51:46 AM: Whats a good crate/kennel cover so the dog doesnt freeze his butt off driving over the pass in November.
Looking for something somewhat easy on the wallet

Thanks!

before I had a canopy I would just cut some 1/4" plywood to fit over most the vents and door and bolt them in place. you can get 4x8 sheet of luan for about $10.00

You can carry enough for a week in a garbage bag.
