In February this year, I was involved in a serious vehicle crash while on duty with my K-9 partner Dunn.  My 2028 Chevy Tahoe was totaled. I was transported to the hospital as a trauma alert. Thank God and your great product my partner and best friend K-9 Dunn did not get injured. Every Airbag in the Tahoe went off producing lots of smoke inside the vehicle. The fire extinguisher also activated inside producing even more smoke. I immediately put my rear windows down and activated the fan on your kennel. The fan worked just like it was supposed to and got all the smoke out of the truck very fast. The kennel did not bend or collapsed, it did exactly what it was supposed to and kept K-9 Dunn safe and uninjured.

So I want to say THANK YOU to everyone in your company for making such a strong and reliable product all your hard work KEEP MY PARTNER AND BEST FRIEND K-9 DUNN SAFE.

That is why all 11 of our Tahoe have your kennel’s in them!

I just wanted to reach out to you all and thank you for your k9 inserts. My K9 (Bax) and I got in a bad wreck a week ago. Your cage saved both our lives. We were on our way to Lake Charles, LA from the Florida Keys for disaster relief, and search and rescue when it happened. When I get a new vehicle, I will definitely be installing another insert.

I would like to thank American Aluminum for your support to the Alameda County Sheriff’s K-9 Trial.
 This is the final event of the year, which included 10 trials over the season.

Currently, we have several of your inserts in our Crown Victoria’s. Last year one of our handlers was 
struck from behind by a speeding motorist. He was hit at speeds over 60 miles per hour, almost at a dead stop.

I responded to the scene and found my partner and his K-9 Frits, were fine. It was absolutely amazing the
 integrity and the strength of the American Aluminum insert. I know for a fact that if he was driving a regular patrol car,
 he might of died or be seriously injured. The back of the car was pushed up into the insert, due to the severity of the crash,
 but the dog was fine, due to the great product you manufacture.

Again, thank you for your support to our association!

I have been a K-9 handler for over a year in a department just solidifying its efforts to establish a K9 Unit. After training with many different Law Enforcement departments and utilizing American Aluminum’s equipment I would like to say the following:

American Aluminum is the best in its class when it comes to superior products for K-9 training. I use their bite suits, narcotics equipment and hot boxes for training with my K-9 and I wouldn’t risk safety and security with anyone else. These products hold up when put to the test and I couldn’t be happier. They understand the demands of law enforcement professionals and have created superior products for our community. The vehicle cage was specially designed by them for my vehicle and was installed with both mine and my dog’s comfort in mind. The professionals at American Aluminum treated me with such great hospitality that I felt more than just a customer; I felt like family. They provide not only the right top of the line equipment, but they also teach you how to properly maintain and care for the equipment. For that, I thank them, and we as a Police Department Community thank them.

American aluminum is first choice when we use our kennels for our work vehicles! Excellent product! Hope to win the collapsible kennel, could really use it for my pup.

 I am sorry I was not able to come back to the shop to allow you to see Mojo. After you put the cage in we picked up Mojo and had to return to Tennessee because of storms, which came into the area and caused a lot of damage. I would like to thank you and everyone who was involved in the donation of of the cage for my department. Because of your generosity our department has a K-9 unit. This unit is something we have needed for a long time. However, because of budget reasons we were not able to start one.

Mojo is loving his new cruiser insert.

The generosity of American Aluminum has changed that. The cage you have installed shows the great craftsmanship of American Aluminum. I have enclosed a picture of Mojo lying down in the cage. Hope you have a Happy and safe 4th of July. Again, thank you.
