Travel safely with your pets
Many of us will be looking to take our pets with us as we travel around the UK this summer. Travelling with unsecured dogs in a car is not only extremely dangerous, it’s also against the law and could incur a hefty fine. Designed and manufactured in Sweden, MIMsafe dog crates offer a safe solution for transporting and have been crash-tested in vehicles to ensure they work effectively with the vehicle’s crumple zone in the event of an accident. They’re crash-tested to 30mph at RISE— the independent Research Institutes of Sweden. MIMsafe crash-tested Variocages, crates and tailgate guards come in a variety of sizes to fit most vehicles, including smaller vehicles and hatchbacks.
