Travall dog barrier for my Q7
The fine folks at Travall have made an easy to install and effective barrier for the Audi Q7. I procrastinated in setting it up as I thought it might take a while, but turns out that this is a quick install. I did it in less than a half hour, with just one screwdriver and a pair of scissors.

Two boxes... one is the guard and the other a rubber floor mat for the rear.
Mat will settle in flat after it's been unrolled...
Probably want to trim out these sections to expose the clips
Simple parts...
Good fit....
Access to rear if needed.....
Tight fit up top...
Hershey doesn't mind...
Overall seems like a really good product!

Did you take a look at the WeatherTech barrier? I don't think I'll be shuttling my dog in the Q7 but I saw that WT has started going hard on pet products, including barriers and bowls and such. They claim those products don't have "toxins" you may find in many other pet products.
Sounds like marketing crap but I do like WT products like mats and such. Just didn't know if anyone had tried those and how well they worked or if simply the "toxins" was just marketing scheme and that they're not as abundant as one might assume.
Without taking a stand on it, I know WT boasts about the "made in the USA" stuff too and that isn't too big of a priority for me either, so long as it works and is durable.

I agree with you about the WT products being marketed well. Travall is actually quite large and well known in Europe, in some places even moreso than WT. I think they are trying to get themselves more known in the US by getting on a site like AudiWorld.com to showcase to the right crowd.

Hey! Not to sound all markety BUT.... Our Guard differs from the WT barrier in a few ways - firstly our Guards are not a universal 'one size fits all', each is vehicle-specific to every model so that every Guard has a perfect fit with no large gaps on the Guard itself OR between the Guard and your car. Meaning no little dogs can squeeze through and no loose items in the trunk are going to fall through. Secondly, our Guard is secured in place by attaching to your cars trunk anchor points so even the largest and heaviest or dogs (or items in the trunk!) aren't going to knock it down! Hope that clarifies a bit!

Thanks for your feedback, I'm sorry to hear it can be a pain to take in and out. While a mesh roll up might be easier to install I don't think it would be as safe as the Guard is!
