Ruff Land Kennels
Performance Kennels
$280.99 – $295.99
Made in the USA! The Ruff Land™ Backseat Rider™ is a little shorter than our best-selling intermediate kennel so it fits better behind your front seat (and two can fit end-to-end in the back seat of most standard vehicles).
Length: 27 7/8"
Width: 20" at widest point
Height: 23 1/4"
Length: 26 1/8"
Width: 17" at narrowest point - 19 3/4" at widest point
Height: 22"
Length: 24 1/2”
Width: 17 1/2"
Weight: Approx. 17 pounds
Due to the fact that Ruff Land Performance Kennels does not have personal knowledge of your pet we prefer not to recommend sizes of kennels. We feel consulting with your breeder, trainer or vet would give you the best results for sizing. Thank you for your understanding.
Ruff FLEX Technology
The walls, top and floor on Ruff Land™ Kennels also have built-in flexibility which absorbs energy that would otherwise be transferred to your dog. This is where the “stiff”, two-walled plastic kennels, which claim to be safer, fail. They may not break, but when your dog hits the side of the kennel, there is no give like there is with a Ruff Land™.
StackRight™ Design
The tops and bottoms of Ruff Land™ kennels all feature form-fit nesting that allows the kennels to fit together, making them stackable.
SureVent™ Tapered Wall Design
The sidewalls on all Ruff Land™ kennels feature a series of vent holes. These vent holes ensure proper air circulation for your dog. Ruff Land™ took this one step further by tapering the side walls so that the vent holes will never get plugged, even if you slide the kennel up against a wall or some other flat sided object.
UpSide™ Raised Floor Interior
The interior floor in a Ruff Land™ kennel is raised so that debris and liquids that fall or spill off to the side are channeled away from your dog. This UpSide™ raised floor design also creates some flex for a built-in cushioning effect for your dog as it rides in your truck.
2-Way Door
They are ambidextrous and can be adjusted to swing either way.
No Bite Grid Pattern Design
Grid pattern stops dogs from chewing/biting kennel door
Rattle-Less
They will not rattle as much (if you’ve owned other kennels you know just how annoying this can be).

For Dennis Stowers question…two intermediates fit stacked in 2017 F150 4 door cab. Leaves passenger seat still available too. I can send pictures if needed.
Ruff Land Kennels – February 22, 2022
Hey Dennis, unfortunately we don’t have a list of what kennels fit in what vehicles, you’d need to measure your available space and use the dimensions on our website to see if the kennel will fit.
customercare – February 21, 2022
Dennis, Unfortunately, we do not have a list of what kennels fit in specific vehicles. You will need to measure the area and compare that to the kennel dimensions to see what kennel would fit best for your vehicle.
Melanie DeCillia – February 6, 2022
Hello do you ship to Canada? And how do I figure out what size is needed. Please and thank you:)
Ruff Land Kennels – February 7, 2022
Hey Melanie, we ship to some areas in Canada. Once you proceed to the transaction page you can enter your address and if it returns a shipping price, that means we can ship to you. For sizing, we recommend speaking with your vet/trainer/breeder to see what size they recommend as we do not give out recommendations to our customers due to safety concerns.
amanda – February 3, 2022
what size replacement door do you order for the backseat rider kennel?
customercare – February 4, 2022
Amanda,
You would buy the Intermediate/Large door for our Backseat Rider.
Angela McHugh – January 10, 2022
Will this fit in the back seat of the New Jeep Gladiator trucks
Alisa Turner – January 14, 2022
Hey Angela,
We don’t have a list of what kennels fit in what vehicles but we do list the dimensions on each kennel page, you can measure the available space you have in the back and compare that to the dimensions to see if it will fit.
