A simple Vari Kennel can be more than just a safe haven for your pet. It can cave your house during Christmas. The movie, “The Dog Who Saved Christmas” reminded me of our dog who almost ruined Christmas. It was unavoidable that we leave him alone in the house for a number of hours on the day before Christmas. He was good about everything except for the tree, and he must have gotten caught on the string of lights. When my mother arrived home late in the evening, the tree was lying on its side across the living room and the decorations were broken and/or chewed. We were lucky that he apparently did not swallow any of the pieces, and that the house did not catch on fire. It was just a good thing that we had another artificial tree in the basement. My mom spent most of the night re-decorating the tree. Come Christmas, morning no knew and my mom just kept quiet.
Elves are a good thing to have as helpers this time of year; as was the Vari Kennel which housed him for the rest of the night. If only we would have taken the time to place him there before leaving, we could have avoided the catastrophe. He loves his crate and enjoys nestling safely on his very own blanket. We still have the same large Vari Kennel and have really enjoyed its durability and how easy it is to clean. In the summer time, we just turn the hose on it. It is more to refresh it than because it is dirty, but during hunting season, it gets pretty muddy.
One of the best things about a Vari Kennel is its portability. Our dogs have been trained to go inside when company comes over to visit and to travel in it during hunting season. It serves as sleeping quarters on those cold nights when he cannot remain in our outside enclosure. It is not difficult to lift onto the bed of the pickup truck and secure it for travel to the marsh. After the Vari kennel is secured in the back of the truck, if trained properly, your pet will willingly jump up into the bed of the truck and then head right for the kennel knowing he is going off on an adventure with his trusty master. The extra large size is roomy enough for our large hunting dogs to stand up and turn around in, which is what you should be looking for in a dog crate. We all know that before a dog lies down to rest he will turn around several times finding just that right position. In the right size Vari Kennel, he is not cramped for space, and there is room for a water dish so you don’t have to worry about him becoming thirsty on the long drive back home.
I might mention that it is a responsible owner who sees that his pet’s riding arrangements are safe and that he is not hanging over the edge of the truck where insects, dust particles, and other dangerous items will become lodged in his eyes or ears Hope your travels with your pet are safe this Holiday Season.
