2 greyhounds in skoda roomster boot?

[sanna]

Anyone out there know if two greys would fit the boot of skoda roomster?
Have one lovely small female and considering getting another but can' t buy a new car!
Thanks for help

Not sure of the Skoda Roomster size but I seem to recall it's not small. Our experience is that two large greyhounds find their place side by side and lie down fine in a CRV. There's the occasional squeal if one stands on the other going around a sharp bend but in general they get on fine.

Thanks for that info. It's roughly 100cm x 70cm with plenty of head room.

They do curl up small so maybe another small hound might work. For longer trips, maybe the back seat?

Thanks. Yes there are a few options if two don' t fit in boot space.
I could flatten the seats and put a crate in the space behind the front seats. And also it's pos to completely take out the back seats. But this is not ideal for transporting other stuff...like people! It would all need a bit of experimentation to get a solution. The dog guard currently attaches to the back seats so it might be a fiddle.
I was really hoping someone out there had a roomster and may have tried these options and so could fill me in on what works for them. Or alternatively could tell me what size space works for them so I could figure out if the boot size is even a realistic option.
Many thanks for ideas/ help

Ps and whether I need to limit my second greyhound search to small ones only!

We have a Skoda Superb, which has the biggest boot space of any estate car bar the Mercedes C class. I would not be able to fit two greyhounds into the boot space alone, especially on a journey of any distance, I would have to pull down the rear seats.

I think the problem with a lot of estate cars now is that they slope so very much! I've got a Toyota Auris hatchback and can fit both of my lurchers in the boot for short journeys. I did look at the estate version and the boot floor was very high up and the roof line so slopey in comparison.

Thanks that's all very helpful.
My car is great for having plenty of headroom for dogs in the boot- the back window hardly slopes at all. Measured the height- 95cm. So a winner on that front.
Sounds like even for very short journeys however the floor space would be pushing it for two greys. I did check the size and it's 100 by 80cm.
Any further thoughts / comments ?
Many thanks

We have a Renault Kangoo and the dog guard is fitted onto the front seats. The back seat folds down and they have the boot and back seat space. They love it. We also have a mezzanine level by dropping the parcel shelf, but if we don't Gizzi is happy to go under the parcel shelf. The main thing they like is a nice comfy dog bed underneath.
