So easy a caveman can do it! Pet Barrier that is!

ScubaSteve · 10-22-2008, 03:29 PM

Well, today I got my M-Pac, springtail pet barrier in the mail. The quality is outstanding, and it doesn't rattle!!!

I installed it myself in about 20 minutes (some of that time was to take my old crappy one out.) Intructions were simple. . . it literally is, so easy a Caveman can do it.

Plus- as a bonus, I got a cool sticker. Normally, I am not much of a sticker guy, but this one is going on. I just have to wait to see where others put theirs.

I must admit, I was a little reluctant due to the price, but now that I have it, I see why it costs a bit more. The quality of this product is amazing, and I'm 100% confident that it will keep my dogs out of the back seat in the event of an accident.

Anyone else get their pet barrier?

PS- Thats Riley in the blue and Louie in the red.

A little about the dogs . . . My wife and I rescued Riley from the pound, he was abused very badly, and at some time in his life shot. (he still has the pellets in his backside). I was told by the dog catcher that found him he was vicious and I had to get him out of the "his" county if we took him in. Needless to say, he has become the most loyal dog ever, (of course it took hundreds and hundreds of dollars in training on Tuesday nights for about a year) Now he is loved by all.

As for Louie . . . we only got him so Riley would have a friend, and let me tell ya . . . they are best friends. Now they both live the good life . . . both indoor dogs, play fetch everyday, house full of toys that dad trips on in the middle of the night, only the best dog food and treats. . . . they have it better than I do. Now they have the ultimate in pet barrier (LOL). This story is to encourage anyone out there thinking of adopting a homeless pet . . . please do so- and as Bob Barker would say, "dont forget to have your pet spayed or neutered."

Mine is supposed to get here tomorrow, just in time for an expedition run into the Blue Ridge Mountains...

Makes me feel like I'm in the back seat of a cop car.

Finally something to tame that mess in the back!

I so get you! I have mine coming as well. I have 3 dogs. 2 Border Collies and our "rescue". The rescue is a mixed breed but black and white. That was the only reason I paid attention to her at all. Anyway, Ceidhlie (Kaylee) is the best, most loyal dog I have ever had the privelage of being around. As a rescue, I think she is so thankful to be here at our house.

Our girls live the same lifestyle as your guys do. They are our kids. The new pet barrier is more for me to be able to transport them (not all at the same time) safely as anything. I cannot wait to get mine!

BTW I have the MPac system for the rear door and it is truly the BOMB as well! I totally recommend Doc's stuff!

Mine is due to be delivered at the folks house tomorrow. I am stoked.

This weekends project is to add expanded metal to cover the rear windows. I want to make a secure area back there. I sometimes have several thousand $ of firearms back there, working on a ham radio rig to go, and my bugout gear. So really need to secure that. Also I bought some shelving mounts to build a new storage system for the rear door ala what has been posted before. I will have 2 Toyota storage nets to offer soon.

Nice pictures of the dogs too. They look so happy!
