Ideas Wanted

[sonny]

Things have not gotten better here yet, regaurdless of what O'BAMagain says. I am thinking of selling my truck to cut expesses. But i have a little fat dog, and I don't know how to transport her on the Nomad if she needs to go to the vet. She is a little under knee high and about 11in across the chest and weighs in at about 68#. I have thought about a trailer w/ kennel. Or a solo set up with some thing that I could put on the rear maybe with a luggage rack. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.

travel kennel strapped on the passenger pad and attached to the seat and sissy bar...the guys down here do it all the time.

I've seen some Harbor Freight trailers with kennel boxes on them.

I love the way this guy hauls his dog.
And I really like his trike.....

Must have his Cat in the front box!!

[Monkeyman]

Seriously, Bob? That would have been hideous even back in the '70s (when I'm sure it was built). :D Reminds me of the Munstermobile.

[Loafer]

That box in the front reminded me of a twelve pack of Magic Hat.

[dmyers]

My cousin had one like that
it was a fun ride

[AlabamaNomadRider]

I'm with Element on the box for the passenger seat. Just built a wooden box large enough to transport the dog. Drill some air holes in it. Attach some handles to allow for strapping it down to the passenger hand rails. Not much money to build the box.

That trike looks like crap, it could use a lot of finishing details.

[Timay]

A sudden stop in that trike might have you singing soprano!

[dmyers]

I dont think that trike does sudden

[BudMan]

I'd call a buddy to tote Fido to the vet.

Must keep his valuables in the helmet mounted above the front box.:ohno::ohno:

Ask a friend or coworker for a ride, take a bus, find a closer vet and walk, etc.

You sold your truck to save money, so I'm guessing a trailer or dog bag maybe out of the budget.

[sonny]

The trailer or dog bag is where I am looking for ideas. The nearest friend/coworker is 38mi. Nearest vet for this breed is 22mi. Nearest intersection is 1 1/2 mi. Thank God, no Public Transportaion in the area or for a long ways. I do not live close to town or play well with others. Hence, looking for ideas.
Thanks for your time.

Your doggie tote idea's might cost more than you "Save" by ditching your truck. Have you considered keeping the truck for emergency use only? :shrug:

[Nubbs]

Side car!

Must keep his valuables in the helmet mounted above the front box.:ohno::ohno:

If he were to make a sudden stop, his valuables WOULD be in the helment above the front box! :D
