Our pup still loves getting into his crate to this day.\u00a0 However, I\u2019m not always such a fan of using the dog crate for car travel. It can be quite awkward getting it in and out of the boot, it rattles even on smooth roads, and takes up the whole boot space. In the last year Travall launched a new product, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travall.co.uk\/travallr-tailgate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Travall TailGate<\/a>. For those of you who haven\u2019t heard of it, it\u2019s a tailgate guard that attaches to the Travall Divider to provide a barrier at the tailgate of your vehicle. It\u2019s the perfect way of deterring a dog from leaping from the boot as soon as the lid opens &#8211; you know how excited for adventure they can be, and impulsive even if they are well trained. \u00a0 Offering the same exceptional level of engineering that you\u2019ve come to expect from the Travall brand, the tailgates offer a great dog crate alternative for car travel, in the following ways:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Travall TailGate allows you to transport two dogs with ease<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have two dogs it can be very difficult to use the dog crate set up in your boot. Many crates aren\u2019t big enough for two dogs, and many boots aren\u2019t big enough for two crates.\u00a0 The Travall TailGate gets around the issue simply, providing a comfortable area for each dog to sit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-10561\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-13-at-14.48.46-300x242.png\" alt=\"dog crate\" width=\"300\" height=\"242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-13-at-14.48.46-300x242.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-13-at-14.48.46.png 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tailgate barrier enables you to have other items in the boot<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s face it, even if you have a relatively small dog the crate needed to transport him is likely to be, well\u2026 bulky. With a Travall TailGate installed there\u2019s no need to have a cumbersome crate in the boot of your car. This means plenty of space is still available for other items that you need to carry with you.\u00a0 So whether you\u2019re going on a picnic at the park, or a hike in the hills, your dog and your gear can be carried easily.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8714\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/TTG_LIfestyle_013-1-212x300.jpg\" alt=\"Christmas gift essentials\" width=\"212\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/TTG_LIfestyle_013-1-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/TTG_LIfestyle_013-1-724x1024.jpg 724w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/TTG_LIfestyle_013-1-768x1086.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/TTG_LIfestyle_013-1-1087x1536.jpg 1087w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/TTG_LIfestyle_013-1-1449x2048.jpg 1449w, https:\/\/blog.travall.com\/en-gb\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/TTG_LIfestyle_013-1-scaled.jpg 1811w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 212px) 100vw, 212px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coordinates perfectly with the rest of the Travall product range for rattle-free journeys<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travall.co.uk\/travallr-tailgate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Travall TailGate<\/a> is designed to coordinate with the Travall Guard and Divider so it not only works well, but also looks great in your car too. Just like the Travall Guard and Divider, the Travall TailGate is designed to fit your vehicle to perfection. This means that unlike a clunky dog crate, there\u2019s no annoying rattling on the journey, so your dog and your other passengers can enjoy a calm and peaceful ride. If you don\u2019t need to use the tailgate on a journey, the double pivot hinge system allows you to fold it back neatly against the divider.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of you who have read my previous blog posts will know that I\u2019m a pretty big fan of crate training.\u00a0 It\u2019s a method that worked really well for us when we added a puppy to our family 10 years ago.
