Dog Trailers

If your dog is a pulling breed, a dog trailer will open up a new dimension in your relationship.

Do the Iditarod the easy way! On paved streets, pulling a wheeled trailer, a single large dog can easily haul an adult or several children (with careful supervision).

 

 

One good turn deserves another! Pull your little guys (up to 30 pounds) with this trailer/kennel combination. Also available are larger kennels for heavier dogs. Contact Tony for prices on the K9 model! Below right is 90 lb. Grover's rolling kennel

 

 

 

 

Like Clydesdales and the other magnificent draft horse breeds, working dogs are happiest when they're helping you. Dogs are most content when doing the kind of work they were originally bred for: retrieving, hunting, protecting you and your property. The same holds true for "pulling" dogs like Huskies, Malamutes, and many other large breeds, even rare ones like the Swiss Bernaise Mountain Dog, or more common ones like the Saint Bernard.

To one of these breeds, pulling a trailer is not work, it's pure joy. Just ensure that when pulling, the dog is guided by a human, as pictured above. If you are within walking distance of a supermarket, your dog will be proud and happy to be pulling your groceries home for you. Just be ready for envious looks from the dogs stuck in the back of all those SUVs in the parking lot.

Be the envy of your fellow dog-owners by employing your pooch to tote your groceries. Your working dog will love it!

 

 

 

 

"We recently bought a cheap wee dog trailer so we don't have to leave anyone behind. I meant to write and tell you that even with a wee spaniel/poodle dog in it trails heavier and clumsier than Willows' (Trail-A-Chair) and made me realise how nicely balanced and set up her trailer is so thanks again, keep up the good work!"

K-9 Trailer Prices:

Prices for the 4-wheeler wagons start at $1200 ($US 1133)-contact us for the possible options.

The two wheeler prices are as shown for the Flat-Deck -Model FD (click here). The kennel can be fixed directly to the chassis, or for more versatility add the plywood deck. The kennel can be bolted or strapped to the deck

A big plus then is either the kennel, totes for shopping, or any load you like can be carried.

Razzle enjoys runs with her owner using this custom-built sulkey. Price starting at $700 ($US 661), simpler version starting at $500 ($US 472).

NOTE; Kennels, animals and totes are not included in the prices.

The airline kennel industry have done a great job on coming up with reasonably priced products. They provise a safe and comfortable environment for your best friend(s).

The kennel can be made into a convertible by separating the two halves and nesting them, giving that "wind in the face" feeling all dogs seem to like.

I'm afraid my dogs would leap out at any time but if your dog's nature is such that they will not do that, then this gives them more options to enjoy the ride.

We can supply the kennel if need be but the cost of shipping them around the world is prohibitive and It's best you supply your own- a lot of people already own one anyway.

Only Tony's Trailers offer this cost effective versatility!

Any "grocery getter" model with a quick-release handle (D, KD, W) can be quickly adapted to dog pulling by replacing the handle with a set of hauling shafts, available from Tony's Trailers. Or, Tony can build a specialized trailer that suits what you and your dog have in mind.

The harnesses that connect the dog to the shafts are available from many sled dog specialists on the Web.

Contact Tony Hoar to discuss or order the shafts that convert your grocery-getter to a dog trailer. You'll be amazed at how readily your working dog takes to trailer pulling!
