An elegant choice for luxury travel with your canine companion, the Louis Vuitton Monogram Malle Chien Dog Box is perfect for weekend getaways, hotel stays, or arriving in style at a classic car event. It also serves as a refined home accent for storing pet essentials between trips.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size dog typically fits the Louis Vuitton Malle Chien Dog Box? A: With external measurements of approximately 50 × 38 × 30 cm, this rigid trunk is best suited to small breeds. For comfort, compare your dog’s standing height and nose‑to‑tail length with the usable interior (allowing for the walls and padding), and ensure there’s space to turn around and lie down. If you’d like exact internal measurements or a tailored fit check for this piece, just ask and we’ll advise.
Q: Is the Malle Chien approved for in‑cabin air travel? A: Generally, no. Most airlines require a soft‑sided carrier that fits fully under the seat, and the Malle Chien’s rigid construction and dimensions exceed typical in‑cabin limits. For flying, we recommend a compact, airline‑compliant soft carrier and to confirm requirements directly with your airline.
Q: Can I use it as a stationary dog bed or decorative home piece? A: Yes. Many owners use the Malle Chien as a stylish resting space at home or in a hotel suite between journeys. It doubles as a refined decor piece for storing pet essentials when not in use.
Q: Is it suitable for car travel? A: It can be used for short transfers and supervised car journeys. Always place it on a stable surface and secure it so it cannot move; never use it unsecured on a seat. The Malle Chien is not a crash‑tested crate, so for long drives or safety‑critical travel, a crash‑tested carrier is recommended.
Q: What are the key features of this piece? A: Monogram coated canvas with natural cowhide (vachetta) leather trim, gold‑tone brass hardware, single top handle, ventilated side panels for airflow, a beige quilted interior, and an S‑lock closure with two side latches. Our listing photos show the exact configuration of this item.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing includes a dust bag and a luggage tag (see “Accessories”). Some Malle Chien examples were produced with a removable cushion; if it isn’t listed here, it isn’t included. We’re happy to recommend a suitably sized cushion on request.
Q: Is it heavy to carry? A: As a hard‑sided trunk with brass hardware, it has a more substantial feel than soft carriers and is best for hand‑carry over short distances. If you’d like the exact weight of this piece, let us know and we’ll provide a scale measurement.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas, vachetta leather and interior? A: Wipe coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Keep vachetta leather away from water and oils; it will develop a natural honey patina over time. Store the trunk upright and lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, and avoid prolonged contact between leather and hardware to minimise imprints. Air the interior regularly; for deeper cleaning, use a gentle fabric brush or consult a professional luxury leather specialist.
Q: What is the difference between the Malle Chien and the Sac Chien? A: The Malle Chien is a rigid, trunk‑style carrier designed for stationary use and short transfers with maximum protection and structure. The Sac Chien is a soft‑sided zip carrier that’s lighter for everyday hand‑carry. Your choice depends on how you plan to travel and your dog’s comfort preferences.
Q: Where are the brand markings located and how do you authenticate this item? A: Authentic Louis Vuitton pieces feature an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and country of origin); trunks may also have lock numbers and other identifiers. This item is labelled Made in France. Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts—assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of everything we sell.
