Dogs are more likely to travel with people these days than ever before. After all, what dog doesn't ride in a car? However, as a breeder and trainer, you are probably more likely to take dogs with you than most other people. You might even transport multiple dogs at once from time to time – like puppies heading to the vet for their first vaccinations?

We've looked at a number of characteristics that can be important to a dog breeder and trainer and have identified five of the most popular used vehicles. These are Honda Element, Ford F150, Ford Escape Hybrid, Range Rover Sport HSE and Subaru Outback.

Honda Element: Element has been very popular since its first release in 2006. It has a cargo space of 74.6 cubic feet, so it has enough room for dogs. It also offers a dog-specific package that includes a moisture-proof water bowl, a foldable dog ramp, specially patterned seat covers, and "dog bone" floor mats.
F: You'll appreciate this gorgeous pickup truck from Ford with its roomy interior, which makes it very easy to buckle up your dog(s). You can also take quite a lot of gear with you and maybe a few kennels in the back for training at the end of your business. Of course, as a breeder and trainer, you know not to force a dog to ride in the back of a truck, even if it is in a kennel.
Ford Escape Hybrid: This is a very economical car with 34/31 mpg. If your operation requires a lot of back and forth movements, this setting may be ideal for you. You will also find that it has a range of aftermarket dog accessories available.
Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE: The Range Rover Sport is a solid high-end SUV that is slightly smaller than the regular Range Rover. However, don't let its size fool you - it's just as rugged as the larger Range Rovers and still offers plenty of room to haul. The only drawback is that it is expensive, even used, and not so common.
Subaru Outback: The Outback is large enough for most breeders and trainers, with a cargo space of 71.3 cubic feet. Standard all-wheel drive will get you where you need to go, even in inclement weather. We also really like the durable upholstery - it is very resistant to bumps and scratches.

All five of these vehicles are extremely practical and also great for the active lifestyles of most dogs, as well as their human companions.
