Brian / CA:   "Dear Clayton,  I got my Patriot dog box today and was stunned.  It's beautiful! It's so nice, I might have to buy a new pickup as it's nicer than the one I own now.  Wow, the quality and craftsmanship you put in your dog boxes is amazing, especially in this day and age when craftsmanship is almost a thing of the past!  You are a great example of fine American craftsmanship and I'm proud to own one of your boxes!

If anybody is thinking of buying a dog box then they should do themselves and their dogs a huge favor and just buy a Patriot as they are the Rolex of the dog box industry!  If you love your dog then you HAVE to have a Patriot Dog Box, it's that simple!  I have owned a few plastic and metal dog boxes but was always unhappy with the shoddy craftsmanship and how they never held up to the rigors of the field. Now that I have one of your boxes I never have to worry about either. Your boxes keep a dog warm and dry unlike some of those death traps and metal ice boxes your competitors sell for almost twice the price. As long as I own dogs and hunt I will always have a Patriot dog box.  As an extremely satisfied customer I will always recommend Patriot dog boxes. You can rest assured, whether you're a hounds man, a retriever man or owner of a nice brace of German shorthairs like me, you are getting nothing but the best from Clayton as he is a true professional and an artist.   Thanks a lot Clayton, Brian - CA 
P.S. My dad saw my new Patriot and said he might buy a dog just so he can have one of your boxes in his pickup."

Adam / Maine:  "Clayton,  I received my dog box today and it looked excellent. I was impressed with the way you packaged this box, many companies put first rate work into making the item and then package it as cheaply as possible only to have the customer receive the item damaged. My box was in perfect condition and the quality is outstanding, you definitely make a top rate product. It looks like this dog box was worth the wait.      Thanks,  Adam"

John / North Carolina:  "Hi Clayton :  First of all I have absolutely been blown away by the quality of your product.  The black, three compartment box you made for me has been a joy to use.  After comparing my box to a few owned by my friends I have to say that I would recomend yours over any others that I have come across.  On another note I wanted to thank you for sponsoring the Carolinas Chapter of NAVHDA.  The gift certificate you sent me was gone within minutes of bringing it out.  We normally have two tests a year.  Is it possible for us to offer the same certificate at our spring test in March?

Tim / Kansas: "Clayton,  Got my box on Thursday, had dogs in 10 minutes after I got it. All of my dogs got right in. Have been using it hard already. We are busy getting ready for clients and dog conditioning is in full swing. My dogs have been comfortable and are able to cool down quickly. Thanks again for a quality experience.  Happy Hunting !  Tim Telinde, Tallgrass Outfitters LLC"

Mike / Oklahoma:  "I ordered a Patriot Dog Box a year ago to specific dimensions to fit in my truck and under the deck lid. It fit perfectly and is of high quality construction. Out here our weather changes rapidly and my dogs have been comfortable in all climates. In fact, when the weather gets down below about 20*F and the wind chill brings it down more, I bring the dogs in and have them sleep all night in the box in the garage. It is easy to handle by myself and have recommended Clayton to everyone I know. I am sure I will buy another, if this one ever wears out. I will probably have to order a new when I get a new vehicle instead. I looked for months at several and this was by far the best price and construction, including the freight. I would not hesitate to buy another today if I needed it."

Bart / Kentucky:  "I have owned a Patriot box for about a year. I looked all over the web, and in magazines, and finally settled on a Patriot. I haven't regretted it for one second. There is no wood to rot, it is insulated second to none, and one man can easily handle it by himself. What more could you ask for? If I ever, AND I DO MEAN EVER, need another dog box, I will give Clayton a call. I special ordered my box, and it came just like I asked ... perfect!"

Jason / Texas:  "I received my first box yesterday. Clayton is a professional and first class all the way. He was more than willing to answer all of my questions and the box is top-notch. Well made and solid, I bought the 42" deep one and can fit four pointers in it. As for a custom box, I'm about to place an order for another box to put IN my home for the dogs to sleep in at night. It will have custom dimensions and he was more than willing to do it. I looked for three months before placing my order and feel that it was worth the wait. It's a great box."

Mark / Kansas:  "I just received my dog box from Clayton a couple of days ago. It is an excellent made dog box and I would recommend it to anyone! He custom made it to my dimensions for a very reasonable price. He is also very good about keeping in touch while the box is being built and keeping track of it during delivery. It made for a stress free cross country purchase."

Paul / Idaho:  "I got a double box with custom size to fit into the bed of my pickup with a canopy and slide on it a couple of years ago. The box has been great, everything fit as it was suppose to and everything that Clayton told me was right on. That included the shipping etc. It is a very good product and priced reasonably. I think you would be very happy with one of them."

Jeff / Minnesota:   "Clayton, thanks for the super service and for making so much extra effort with the dog box.  I love it, my dogs love it and all my friends love it!  I'm amazed at how well insulated it is and the overall construction.  I'll be telling everyone about Patriot, you can count on that!  Thanks again!"

John / California:  "Dear Clayton:  Well, I don't know what I expected, but I sure didn't expect this! The dog box is outstanding!  Your service and follow up were wonderful!  You made what could've been a nerve-racking experience painless.  Thanks for all your efforts and communications and for building a dog box that's the envy of all my friends."

Anthony / Vermont:  "Hi Clayton:  I received your email inquiring about the dog box.  I love it!  My dogs can't seem to wait to get inside!  The extra time and effort you take is obvious throughout the box.  I shopped around for months before buying a Patriot box and I'm extremely happy with the decision I finally made.  I'll recommend you to everyone I know!  Oh, by the way, lots of people are asking about the box...seems like everywhere I go somebody has to come by and "inspect" it!  Thanks again!"

Ted / Wyoming:  "I can't believe that I got an email from you after a year, asking about the box!  The "other" dog boxes I've owned didn't even last a year!  Well, to answer your questions, the dog box is outstanding!  I've put a few scratches on it since you saw it last but it's holding up fine, and, believe me, it gets some rough treatment here!  My dogs love it!  Last bird season I went to North Dakota and it was bitter cold.  The dogs were comfortable the whole trip and ready to go when I arrived.  Those winter doors are super!  Thanks for asking about the box...You must have a lot of confidence in your work to even ask after a year! :-) "

Dan / Michigan:  "Clayton:  I received your email today.  I'm glad to report that the dog box is outstanding in every way.  You really did a great job!  I have coonhounds and I've had problems with a couple of them not wanting to go in the box in the past - NOT WITH PATRIOT!  Man, they can't wait to get inside and stretch out!   The box has performed beyond my expectations and YOU, my friend, YOU are unreal!  I can't believe how you stay in contact and follow up long after the box is sold!  Other companies could take a lesson from you and your dedication!  Thanks again - I'm very happy with my Patriot Dog Box!"

Patrick / Maine:  "You know,  I was concerned about how cold it gets up here and looked for months at dog boxes, checking out the features.  I finally decided on Patriot and boy, am I glad I did!  The insulation has proven to be just what the doctor ordered.  My dogs stay comfortable even when the temperature dips below zero!  I love this Patriot box, Clayton!  Thanks!"

Darren / Alabama: "My hunting buddy and I were looking for a dog box about the same time.  He decided to go with another brand and I decided on Patriot.  I made the right decision.  There's no comparison between his "cheap made" box and mine!  I recommend Patriot to anyone who is serious about a first class dog box!  Thanks!"

William / Virginia:  "Patriot Dog boxes is the way to go. I did a lot of searching on the web also and for the quality work put in to these boxes you won't find a better deal. Clayton won't steer you wrong, he's an honest man who builds an excellent dog box. My brother-in-law liked it so much he's getting rid of his old utility bed box and getting a Patriot. Plenty of room for the dogs and your gear. I run beagles and could easily fit three maybe even four dogs in each side. He'll custom make it to your specs. Mine is black and with the high heat we've been getting here in Va. the inside stays cool thanks to the double walled insulation. So stop searching any further and get yourself a Patriot!"

Mitch / North Carolina:  "I am very pleased with my box and have had MANY compliments on it. It sat out in the weather most of the summer and looked pretty rough when I loaded it up a couple of weeks ago but a quick wash made it look new again....I'm definitely a satisfied customer!!"
Many thanks, Mitch Rivers - Rivers Turkey Calls - 828-645-9554

Jay / Iowa: "Clayton:  The box was delivered this morning.  It looks just as you described it…great.  It will double, very nicely, as a dog house in my kennel.  My dog crawled right in and I had to call him to get him out of there.  I think you have two satisfied customers on my end. Thanks again for putting the “rush” on this, I really appreciate it." 

Mike / Nebraska:  "Clayton:  The dog box arrived yesterday. I unpacked it and checked everything and found no problems. I'm more than satisfied at this point, and look forward to never again building a plywood box that eventually begins to rot and has to be rebuilt. I especially like the doors without the cover installed for reaching in to take off training/tracking collars, removing magnets, etc. There is plenty of room between the bars so access will be great. I was surprised how light it feels and how easy it was to load, even when attached to the shipping pallet. I enjoyed doing business with you, its evident you understand the needs of your customers (because you're a hunter too) and are proud of the product you provide. Rightfully so !!  Thanks again, I'll try to send some pictures with my hounds."

Matt / Texas: "Clayton, got the dog box Tuesday,.. looks great!  All the guys at work were impressed also. Thanks for a great dog box and all your help.  Have a Happy New Year!! "

Jon / Tennessee:   " Clayton, As I stated on the phone, the box arrived fine.  I'm extremely pleased with it as it's as well built as your website promises.  The most amazing thing is the weight, it's amazing how light it is for all it's features.  Even better than the box is the customer service you provide.  You truly have an outstanding company and I'm convinced provide the best box for the money out there." 

Blaine / North Dakota:  "Clayton, got home  last night and the dog box was here. It looks great! You have a great looking product and with our weather here in North Dakota this should be the real ticket for our hunting excursions this fall and winter. Thanks again!"

Darby / Idaho : "Clayton, I wanted to tell you thanks again for the dog box.  It will work out great and looks awesome.  I'll definitely be pointing people your way.  Even sight-unseen I've felt comfortable showing buddies your website because of the service that you've given.  You're great to work with and that makes the buying experience that much more enjoyable. Here is a picture with my GSP in the box, he's already at home in it: (see photo gallery)
 

Jim / Kansas : "Just a quick note.  The old dog box is doing great!! The dog sure seems to like it a lot, every time I open the back of the truck he is ready to climb in!!! Had been out Dove and Teal Hunting.  The dog was in the water a lot and he conked out while we were cleaning birds!! Thought you might like a couple of shots.  Everyone sure is impressed with the box including me!" (see photo gallery for picture of Ozzie taking a snooze)

Lloyd and Ray / Virginia: "Clayton, haven't talked to you since Ray and myself picked up those boxes.   Just thought I would drop you a line and tell you you did a heck of a job!!!! I've had dogs in mine as well as Ray's every weekend since we picked them up sometimes the whole weekend and I think they like it as much as we do. Just wanted to say hi and thanks again. "

Steve / Kansas:  "I bought a box from you two years ago, and I'm wanting another one. I sold my pickup and my old box went with it. The guy couldn't live without it."

Mike / Colorado: "Clayton, how you doing?  I saw a Gray and white Patriot box in the back of a pickup the other day.  I wish I could have talked to the guy to see if he likes his as much as I like mine.  I like all of it but the best thing is the weight.  It's so easy to load and unload. Thanks again, Mike"

Jon / Kansas:  "Hi Clayton:  I just thought I would touch base with you to see how things are going and let you know we are still here and abusing our dog box every day! After 2 plus years of abuse I can see no significant wear.  This would be expected of most dog boxes that are treated with a little TLC but we don't even attempt to take special care of our box.  I have personally put a full grown Bull Mastiff in half of our box with no problems.  We have transported all types and breeds of bird dogs and we have yet to see any damage.  I leave this box outside in the weather almost 365 days a year and the only thing it has required is a little wax job once in a while.  We also loaned this box out to a friend and customer who put three dogs in it and drove them to Lousianna, from Southeast Kansas, in June of 2006.  While this may not be impressive to some it is to me considering the fact that we have an all black box!  We showed him how to ice down the top and the dogs arrived happy and healthy.  We will talk to you soon."

Robert /  Texas:  "Clayton:  Thanks...the box arrived in good shape yesterday. I un-boxed it last night and it appeared to be just like you & I discussed...a very impressive box. I am really impressed with the doors and I'm glad we added the internal partition vent. Will be using it soon...just wish we had better prospects for quail this year...too dry for 2 years. In any event, the dogs will travel safely & in style.   Lastly, each of my 3 dogs gave it their vote of approval.   Thanks for building a great box at a great price!"
