    Wow. Thanks guys! Quite a few more responses than I was expecting. [cl I'm collecting quite a few images in order to pair down to what I like - I want to be able to hear myself think and not give my dog an aneurism due to cabin noise. I take him everywhere. A bit of comfort would be nice too -...

    My search just took a turn...

    Oh boy - sitting at home showing my awesome wife several possible pickups I like which are for sale and she hits me with, "is that big enough for Jones?" Jones is our husky/lab mix dog.
