Default Q5 Dog Gate?

My wife would like to get a dog gate for the Q5. I would prefer the factory mesh "screen" style gate that is available in Canada and oversees. Anybody know of any similar options that are rattle free and well built or maybe somebody has a spare factory screen sitting around that they want to sell?

Any suggestions on rear seat overs to protect from dogs?

We always use a regular towel, but then again our dog is only 12lb. I suggest you go on eBay or google car dog seat covers. There are plenty out there that might suit your fit. Good Luck.

Can I recommend a powerful sedative instead?

Check out Kurgo products. Great dog items and some good auto ones too. Take a look at the trunk cleat.

Kurgo is good as plasticar mentioned.

Also try Canvasback covers. They make custom fit cargo covers for the Q5 that are outstanding.

Sorry, I was just trying to help JFR 0612.

Kurgo has a 'back seat barrier' that should act as a dog gate behind the 2nd row seats or front seats.

Sorry for hijacking, I only meant to piggy-back. I too saw the Kurgo barrier system. Yet, of this to work, the back seats cannot be laid down, and ma recommend a seat cover to protect the interior.

Thanks for the reply's for the seat cover. Through more research, it seems that Kurgo is a pretty good brand with positive reviews. Thanks for the input!

Why not contact a dealer in Canada and have them ship to you? Or if you're close to the border, make the drive.
