🩷 Auntie Amie’s dog wagon! 🚐
🚐 My van is the Toyota UK all electric Proace City (SWB panel van)- unlike most swb vans, it has two sliding doors, making access easy for me and the dogs!
🍃 🌍 I’m proud to drive an all electric vehicle! No nasty diesel fumes being pumped into the air yay!
🐾 it was really important to me that the set up was accommodating for all dogs… this includes dogs that don’t like crates or have never been in a crate. There’s also a space on the front seats for those more nervous travellers. I didn’t want the typical dog walker set-up of crates piled on top of one another. My set-up works perfectly for the dogs that I walk, accommodating up to five dogs; 2 large and 3 small/medium (you won’t catch me walking more than that anyway).
🐶 the dogs each have their own separate space so that they can relax and feel comfortable while inside, and there’s no risk of conflict while I’m driving. My amazing crash tested B25 crate has a removable solid divider- I originally bought this for my jeep renegade which it worked great with, however the time had come to swap to a van, and it fits lovely! (it is secured down with ratchet straps to ensure there’s no sliding).
🐕🦺 the larger cargo area is divided using a strong doggy play pen. It works perfectly for hanging all my leads on, but also creating a divider which allows plenty of airflow around the van.
☀️ in the summer, I use non-toxic cooling mats and rechargeable fans to maintain airflow when the van is stationary, to keep the dogs nice and cool!
💺 my seat covers are from and I am obsessed! They’re waterproof so keep my fabric seats clean and dry, and the added extra of having my logo on is such a cool idea!
🏕️ I also plan to use my van for camping at some point in the future, which is why everything is secured down with ratchet straps- so that it is easily removable yet still secure!
🦮 the most important thing is that the dogs love it and are comfortable hopping in and out!
