The hunter who needs a lot of storage space for guns, training equipment, field supplies, and electronics can benefit most from this dog box.
Who can Benefit Least from the Owens Dog Box 55006?
Hunters with very tall dogs might be limited by the 18’’ height, in which case the Owens Dog Box 55019 model with 25’’ height (but no storage space) might be the better option.

The Owens Dog Box 55005 model is most comparable to the 55006, which is 38’’ wide but has the same height and depth. The Owens Dog Box 55019 model does not have a storage compartment, but the dog compartment is 25’’ tall.
