Random one but has anyone had any experience fitting dog cages to the back of a defender 110?

We run a dog walking business - I have a 110 ex MOD utility and have a lot of space back there but cant work out the most efficient way of fitting 4 crates back there.

Anyone?

Board the back between the wheel arches so it's level.
You can fit 2 large crates, big enough for 4 collies.my cages have side & front opening
Space below for storage.
Only problem you get is picking up the dogs to this height with cages.

Or build a rear bulkhead cage & let them run free.

This one, just fit a dog guard and the whole things becomes one big crate. If you need four to separate dogs and have each dog in it own cage I thing you are going to struggle unless you have two across and double decker it as the length is not that usable if yo uneed access to it all.

i like the idea of turning the rear into one big jail cell but too often we get dogs that need a separate crate :(

If not all of the dogs need to be separated you could do a combination. Still fit the dog guard across the bulkhead behind the seat to secure the rear load area. fit two crates across the front end of the laod bed against the bulkhead and have the rest "free" in the back?
Other wise as @flat suggested possible looking at side entry with either fold up sides or the roller shutters seen on some of utilities and a rows of crates along each side facing out.. I am assuming as it is a business it does not matter if it is a permanent fixture and cannot easily be removed.
I know neither of these specifically would work for you but this sort of idea (pictures off google):
