Our 11 week old German Shepard puppy was able to open the top latch and tried to get out of the top of this kennel. He was wedged in the cage so tightly that when he was found he was dead. We were gone less than 30 minutes. Our children are devastated. We are devestated. This kennel was suppose to be a safe place for our puppy. I hope no other family has to experience a tragedy like this.Read more

This is just like every other wire crate except for one thing and it’s the most important thing! On EVERY kennel I have purchased the sliding lock was shaped like a sideways “L”. You slide it over, then roll the bar down and the end of the “L” locks the “lock into place” holding the door closed. On this crate, it is a simple straight bar that you slide over. If your dog is the sort that will try to get out or starts barking and jumping at the door, (due to hearing someone outside), the latch can side open. Why modify a part that works to something that doesn’t work. How much money do you save by leaving a 1″ piece of round bar off? And here we have it again folks, the price goes up, quality goes down.Read more

I bought the 42-inch version of this crate mainly for the price and the included divider, but also because the product description assured me that it had “rounded corners”. In other words, because I thought it would be safe for my lab puppy while allowing her to grow. Apparently “corners” only means corners. The ends of the crate’s wires are not rounded. Recently my puppy cut her nose while in the crate. After a thorough inspection of the crate, I figured out why. The hinges on the two doors are made by folding the door’s horizontal wires over the vertical wire at the crate’s door opening. The ends of these horizontal wires have not been rounded or filed down, and these sharp end-points are inside the crate and can easily cut a dog’s nose or paw — especially on the crate’s end door where the wires have only been folded over 180 degrees. In addition, a dog could catch her collar on one of these wires and choke (yes, I know, I know — the instructions say not to put a dog in the crate with her collar on. But how many people read or heed that?) I guess you get what you pay for, but Amazon really should stop selling this crate until the problem is fixed (or state CLEARLY in the product description that there are sharp edges inside the crate. In the meantime I’m off to the pet store to find a SAFE crate. I don’t know whether it’s worth the hassle to try to return the one I have.Read more

This crate is durable, and easy to collapse/set-up. Installation was a breeze, and we can easily travel around with it. My puppy likes to gnaw on the metal bars(obviously I discourage it, but it’s bound to happen), and not a mark so far. Not to mention that the removable plastic tray is extremely useful for cleaning up any little puppy puddles! The divider is what really makes these crates a great buy. We wanted to get a crate that our dog could move around in, so we actually got one that was two sizes too large – the “Intermediate” or 36-inch one. Our dog is a cockapoo that will be classified as “small” when he is fully grown, but obviously he is very tiny at only 8 weeks! This is where the divider comes in… We were able to make the usable portion MUCH smaller which is perfect for our puppy to snuggle up in. As he grows and gets house-trained, we will be able to move the divider further and further and eventually remove it completely… No need to keep purchasing larger crates because this one grows with our little guy! We actually got two of them! One of them (the larger one I previously mentioned) we actually have attached to an exercise pen to create a decent-sized area for our puppy to play and live in. He can go into the crate for naps, and then freely move around the exercise area — ideal for any time he has to be alone! The second crate we got so that he can sleep in our bedrooms at night. It is only a 22″ one so it’s easy to move around and put in the backseat of the car. Highly, highly recommended for fur babies!Read more

I bought this crate for my rescue when I learned his foster parents crated him and that’s where he liked to sleep. He’s a big dog – over 80 pounds when I adopted him – and this is the perfect size for him to both lay down and sit up in. It was easy to put a bed in the bottom and he slept in the crate for weeks until he became comfortable sleeping in his dog bed in the bedroom. He loves his crate though so he’s easy to please in that regard. The crate is very sturdy. Recently I put him in the crate when maintenance people had to come in the house. He was startled by a worker walking by and lunged in fright. The crate moved a few inches with the force of it but the door held fine, no damage . I did run into difficulty assembling the crate. One of the latches you have to undo to put the “wall” up was truly nearly impossible to unlatch. It was grueling but after about 15 minutes worth of painful attempts I managed it. Hopefully this was just a flaw in mine and no one else will have that problem.. or they’ll figure out how to undo the latch with a tool.Read more

It can be difficult to accurately judge how much room your dog will have in a crate. It’s roomier than you might think. We bought the 42″ size for our 100 lb adult German Shepherd. She can stand fully upright inside it with comfort and she can turn around. She can lie down and stretch her front legs straight out. She does not have room to exercise, but exercise is not the point of a crate. She is safe, secure and comfortable inside it. It is well made, easy to set up and fold, with a roomy door for clean-up and care. It’s about half the cost of a similar crate at a major bricks and mortar retailer. Look for the photo to get a reference. I don’t think you’ll find a better deal.Read more

This thing is awesome for such a low price! I paid $103CAD for it. First of all, NO, this is not “heavy duty”. For $100 what did you expect. That said! I have a Siberian Husky and they are notorious for destruction and escaping. So, I went to the dollar store and spent $3 on zip ties and I used a total of 60 zip ties on this crate. NOW is the HEAVY DUTY. No freakin’ way he is getting out of it. It’s been a week and after trying for the first day or two, he’s stopped. It’s nearly impossible to get out of all those zip ties. Do I care that it won’t collapse for travel now? Nope. Not one bit. I never intended it for travel and for that price, I’m willing to sacrifice that. That is my advice for you. Get zip ties and tie the s*** out of it. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase.Read more

This dog crate is perfectly fine and at a great price, very suitable for a tiny dog. It also works great as a feeding station for birds. We have a huge pigeon population and I got tired of having bird seed eaten in under 2 minutes from these flying vacuum machines. I bent some of the wire to make the holes bigger – a bit hard to do as the cage is very sturdy and put bricks around it as the pigeons can still poke their heads through. Works great, wish I had of thought abut it years ago! I have to brush the snow off once a day, and the tray is easy to pull out and dump. I have since stopped putting seed on the inside brick and just put it on the tray (pigeon could stick his head inside and eat) and surrounded the cage with bricks so now the pigeon’s head can’t reach the bottom of the cage at all. So glad I bought this cage!Read more

After an extensive research, I chose this crate for my 4 month old Maltese puppy. I have used different crates in the past for my other dogs, but this one is by far the best. There’s no sharp corners on the wires, so I won’t be scratching my fingers. I also like the fact that it has rollers at the bottom so the crate doesn’t scratch the floor. (The only drawback of this function is that it’s easily moved when my other dog pushes it trying to get to her food! LOL) It doesn’t make a loud metal noise when you open/close the doors. Quite light weight (mine is 22inch). Very pleased with this purchase.Read more

This has proved to be a really good crate. Well made with no nasty sharp edges and has put up with some chewing by its occupant, a Lab puppy. The two door arrangement gives flexibility of deployment and it folds easily for storage if required. It comes with a divider that allows the crate to be sized for a growing dog to ensure optimum size for the animal’s development. The only negative to date, and it is not enough to deduct a star, is that the metal hook for securing it when folded is next to the side door and has been a magnet for the dog to worry it and try and chew on it, when outside the crate. The hook has not been damaged by this worrying, but it is quite distracting and annoying and of-course, trying to stop the puppy chewing it just reinforces that he wants to chew it more than anything else in the world! That said, this crate has proved really useful and the dog loves it as his little ‘den’.Read more
