EXCELLENT post...!!! I have two dogs (golden retrievers) as well and I was thinking of buying the dog guard (alon with the waterprrof boot cover)...I will do it ASAP.
BTW, what was the price in UK? I asked my local dealer, but although they have the part number the system shows no price!?!?

Nice guide.
Can the Dog guard be easily removed when you need the additional space?

4 screws and its out- as long as you understood how to put it together, it should be easy to take it out, put it back in.
not an everyday task though,as you need a tool to do it |
