Designed with working dogs in mind, the Dakota 283 Hero Kennel with Dakota Guard Antimicrobial is named for the canine heroes it was built to protect. Originally for military and police dogs, the Hero Kennel is molded from military-grade materials in one solid piece. It also provides an extra layer of security with a triple-locking, stainless steel door that can be closed with one hand. Dakota Guard is a food-grade, safe additive that's included in small quantities during production to help protect your pet’s health. Just another way Dakota 283 is committed to keeping your pets safe!
