Nice piccy, but u've made em look like a hungry predator.
They're as affectionate as a hungry cat, more intelligent than a lab, can swim all day (in freezin water) and retrieve.
And be as stubborn as a basset with its paws stuck in concrete if that's the way they feel.
So far more interesting than a Honda CBR. I think its called character.

Chessies are hungry predators, all the ones I've seen working are very one person focused and look out if they don't like you! My mates killed his working cocker.
I have been to the Gamefair and seen this Lintran set up.
It covers the tail gate, it has an extension set up to use the back 2 rows.
They had a great interior, but unfortunately my picci wasn't very good. They had got a Jaguar trained guy to put a blue leather with parchment piping, as used in RR it looked 8)

What are your prefered options of transporting your dog in your D3? i currently have the dog guard and heavy rubber matt. Both good but still getting dog hair weaving itself into carpet. Tried LR's Fleible loadspace protector but found it rubbish. Was thinking of the high sided boot matt but not sure if it will fit with dog guard in place. Any opions or pictures welcome.
Have you looked at the Dog Bag? In my view it's the best method of transporting dogs. They are safe and it keeps the dirt, wet and hairs within the bag and you can then keep other stuff in the boot without it getting dirty or damaged. Also, it stops the slopper on the glass. It is much better than a metal cage.
Our dogs loves it. She sleeps in it inside at night. It's her portable kennel. And if folds up to fit inside a small rucksack. Go to www.dog-bag.co.uk
Also see pictures of it in our Range Rover Sport at http://rrsport.theseusnorth.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=37

That is VERY COOL!!! I might look into one of those. I love my Dog Guard, but after my last accident (rear-ended) I worry about having my back window broken in an accident and my dog getting freaked and hopping out into traffic. This looks like it would solve this issue, as well as allow me to remove the dog guard and not look like a police vehicle anymore '05 LR3 HSE
