Check out a boat equipment supplier. They make vents, fans and other stuff to ventilate sailboats. Or an RV parts/accessory place.

front with me.
Problem solved.

If I can get this link to post, this one seems pretty nice

to use in a truck, 12 volt, with a pin connector to a trailer jack?

I have a (3) hole Ainley w/ vents and 2 exhaust fans mounted in the bed of my truck.. In the summer and during Dove season in S. TX, I put a 90qt cooler full of ice in the middle hole. I close the vents and prop the cooler lid partially open. It keeps the entire box cool.

I usually run 2 flexiable foil tube from my pick up dash A/C vent through sliding rear glass window into my canopy sliding glass window behind the cab. It might take 10 minutes to cool the canopy bed but it does work. Less then $20.00 at Home Depot.

...I'm not trying to be a scaremonger but I have read in the past some accounts of dogs riding in the back of pickup toppers/ canopies succumbing to the truck exhaust. It sounded like a freak occurence the first time but the second time I read a similar story it really scared me. The second incident I read, three English setter bird dogs were lost. Might be something to consider--proper ventilation might avoid unimaginable heartbreak!
