We adopted the two long hair mini doxies (we named them Tater and Tot) in January of this year from Ginger's Pet Rescue. They were rescued from a death row puppy mill in LA. Since we adopted them, I've been slowly introducing them to riding in their kennel on top of the trailer. First just pulling the trailer by hand around the place. This past weekend I felt they were ready for their first ride. Took them to Destination Harley in Tacoma and back for about 30 miles total. They did great. I will start taking longer rides little by little as they get more accustomed to riding.

 

That's pretty neat. I bet you can come up with a nicer securing mechanism than those straps.

 

It's bolted to the lid of the trailer...the ratchet straps are an extra security. The inside of the kennel is insulated and padded.

 

That's good. Certainly more secure than the guys who put their dogs on the gas tank!
