Help guys !!!!!!!!!!!! Dania I had my "dog boxes" made by Rush River Outfitters. (_www.rushriver.com_ (http://www.rushriver.com) ) (Hmmmm...their web site isn't opening this AM) LOVE THEM! they can do 2 side by side, different colors, but they are wood, aluminum, steel, etc., and these aren't something you take in and out all the time, lol:) The added bonuses, absolutely SAFE and they are insulated, cool in the summer, warm in the winter. These are hunting and sled dog people who build to whatever specs you'd like, and if memory serves, they are in WI, so the transport on an 18 wheeler (I bought 2 sets of 2) on palates was a bit much, but I'm sure if you google hunting or sledding dog supplies, you'll find other companies.
