Dakota 283 Hero Kennel - GI-PETUB2-DAR

Designed with working dogs in mind, the Dakota 283 Hero Kennel is named for the heroes it was built to protect. Originally crafted for military and police dogs, this kennel is molded from military-grade materials in one solid piece, ensuring durability and security. The triple-locking stainless steel door can be closed with one hand, providing an extra layer of protection for your pet. Featuring Dakota Guard, an environmentally and food-grade safe additive, the Hero Kennel protects your pet’s health from harmful bacteria and organisms. This commitment to safety and security makes Dakota 283 a trusted choice for keeping your pets safe.

The Hero Kennel boasts a heavy-duty design with small, scattered ventilation holes to prevent chewing while ensuring ample airflow. Molded-in handles on each side make it easy to transport, and the lockable keyed paddle latch protects pets from theft. Constructed using the same rotational molding process as US military cargo containers, the Hero Kennel is built to withstand extreme impacts and resist surface abrasions. Its deep and wide interior fits nearly any size dog, and the one-piece design prevents messes in your vehicle, making it ideal for travel. The double-hinged door swings from either side and can be removed for easy access, while the crate's low-friction surface allows it to glide smoothly across floors.
