I had an old trailer that I had built a few years ago to haul 350 gallons of water to our boars. After it was not needed I decided to transform it to my hog-dog trailer. I built two seperate dog boxes (2.5' X 4' each) on the front and left enough space to put my fourwheeler on back. Made the boxes extra tall for my staghounds and added a ramp to the back of the trailer. Had a sheet of aluminum diamond plate that worked perfect to cover the top and ramp. Also added an 8 gallon aluminum water tank for the dogs that I had laying around. Covered the whole thing in "Ugly Dog Orange" and slapped some stainless full-moon hubcaps on to dress it up. Added lights and a few stickers and it is ready to go. Should be different enough that no one will want to try and steal it.....  It is 4 feet wide and 12 feet long....   |

Looks good! You'll enjoy that trailer!
The water is a good idea. I did that to mine but for the purpose of wetting and cooling down hogs we had caught and loaded. It seems to help, as there for a while we were losing a fair amount. I expanded on my idea later and re-did the system using a 6 gallon marine fuel tank and connected it to a 12 volt demand pump (like an RV waterpump). Plumbed a faucet on the side of the trailer to hook a hose, or use just as is to rinse hands or clean off a backstrap.
