The Havis K9 Transport System features a durable but lightweight aluminum structure and smooth radius edges. Based on customer feedback, Havis added the now-standard heavy-duty white powder coat finish to allow for easier cleaning and eliminate black oxide buildup on the dog's fur. Additionally, the unit maximizes officer/canine space and visibility, allowing the driver's seat to move all the way back for comfort. Other features include larger side-entry openings, generous ventilation holes, and lowered floors for easy canine entry and exit.
