The Louisiana Trailer Dog is an ATV tie-down and security device designed to fit any trailer and eliminate the need for tie-downs, straps, or ropes. It secures an ATV in seconds and prevents forward, backward, and side movement. Although easy to install, the customer will be required to drill (6) 1/2" holes in the bed of the trailer for the installation of the base plate. When the Louisiana Trailer Dog is not in use, simply remove the upright arm, leaving only the one-inch plate attached to the floor of the trailer. Therefore, your trailer will not be restricted for other uses.
