Hello Simon,
I received an email from Julie at Barjo. She asked if you would contact them and arrange a measurement. Thank
you.

The IG holds 2 Ruffland Kennels easy in the back.

What is the width of the two together? Are you using an intermediate and large?

birdogs said:

Correct on sizes.

It is ~40”

I think if you had 2 Larges it may be slightly too wide - but haven’t actually checked the fit.

I had the back seat folded down for clearance of the large.

Ruffland also makes a SUV slant back kennel that may be good the situation too.

Thank you, I'm actually working on calculations for my QM that is on order. Figuring out how things would fit if I did a flat tray/canopy set up.

Thank you! In the meantime I've modified two wire crates to fit. I shortened them, slanted the backs, and cut away the outside corners to accommodate the wheel arches. It is far from ideal and they need to be taller, but will work. We are off to North Dakota to shoot Sharptailed Grouse on Friday. I will let you know how it goes. Also, I tried a ramp for the dogs, but they don't like it. And it is big and bulky. I have a folding 2 step stool that fits atop the crates and is easy to get in and out and open and close. The dogs like it and don't hesitate to kennel on command.

Ruffland makes slant back kennels for SUVs that may work well here. I know a Large and an Intermediate fit fine in the back.

Enjoy ND! Our dogs just got back from their summer on the prairies.

ND reports good winter survival but small brood size due to cold, wet Spring. Your impression?
