Cool Platform Box Designs

I've grown tired of my plywood and brick set-up. It does the job in the backyard, but would like to take the show on the road!---well, at least to the park.

Are there any folks who'd like to brag about their custom-made wood boxes (preferably with handles)? Photos are welcome!

Default me too

I have three maybe four 1 x 12 x 4 ft maybe pine planks I was going to use. Is a 12" tall box too high for a medium sized terrier?

roustabout - I second that - would definitely love to hear/see some fancy box plans!

Valerie - 12" is probably not too high. The box that I use with most dogs is only 6" off the ground (what I use in the video), BUT I often use much higher surfaces in the environment when I'm improvising.

It might be a problem if your dog couldn't jump up on the box for some reason, but I've seen some little terriers who could jump higher than my head.
